The main and most important thing I've learnt from Module 1 is digital literacy. I'm definitely going to dive deeper into the topic to ensure I can surf the Internet safer and help my learners make their searches properly as well.

Another thing the module helped me realise is that I myself read more online (on the screen) than from paper resources (just like my students do). I'm going to look for more resources online to learn how I can make the most of my students' screen time for developing their language skills.

Then I will analyse the material in the coursebook and how I can use technologies to make my students' learning catchier and more engaging.

Digital literacy is the key to successful learning in present time. Information might be incorrect or with some fakes, thus person should know how and where to find it.

Every teacher can find different resources for development. It's the easiest way of learning and there is no need to go anywhere. To my mind, it's a great pros😃

In September, I'm sure, I'll practice with my students all the schemes and structures. And my vacation won't pass without the positive results.

Digital literacy is really important for teachers and students. We work with different information, so where and what to find, we should know. In other words, we're learning with our students and it's cool. I can't say that I want to know more about it, I work at school, I learn something every day😂 and the same with knowledge in this theme. If I don't know anything, I can find everything what I need in the Internet/vebinars/seminars. I try to use all interesting methodics with my students. And succeed in different spheres.

Nataliia Khlivna

1. I have always suspected that I’m more digitally competent than digitally skilled or expertised. I am still at a ‘pre-intermediate stage of getting acquainted with what the contemporary digital world provides us. I only know how to ‘write in pen’, i.e how to find the information, evaluate and adapt it for face-to-face teaching purposes, though I’d be not against ‘to write in pen elaborately’. I mean that I’m looking forward to being able to nurture my online capacity to leverage new technologies more effectively, reasonably and relevantly.

2. I would like to know more about video dictionaries. I would like to improve my knowledge of creating this tool. This app will help students to revise and recycle language from a previous lesson, to study new words. Visualization enhances attention because it keeps the students focused on the subject matter.

3. I am absolutely sure that our OTP, TAGs, forum discussions, online sessions, sharing times and resources uploaded will enable me to ‘swim like a fish’ in the Web potential. I do hope that the pieces of advice given will really help me build on my present knowledge by experimenting with new approaches and successfully implementing them into classroom.

4. Be informed about the latest digital trends, tools can help me to encourage my students to work together on digital projects, fostering teamwork, communication and problem-solving skills. This can promote their creativity and enrich my teaching strategies. I'm ready to implement them in my teaching, but I need some time to see how it will work in practice.
