DISAPPOINTMENT

Evaluation for the course is not 100% based on the final performance.
What did most of you do in the language lab?
Update status on your fb?
Sorry I didn't award any points for updating status in fb!
I really hope that you would focus on the learning experiences rather than banging on the quarrels.
I so wanted everyone to soar way up in the sky. But, I guess you are more interested in soaring way up elsewhere.
Apologies. You are so very much still in my B.Ed TESL world!!!!
WAKE UP!!!!!!
I think I'm just wasting my time.

TESL Rockers Rock the Nights: 9 and 10 December 2011

Hi Rockers,

I am so proud of you people. You people smashed the rocks on both nights. I usually would be sitting back with evaluation sheets and pen but on those 2 nights I just want to absorb the emotions reverberating on stage and all around the hall. I laughed, i cried and there were times when the emotions were just too much. Rockers, thank you for the unforgettable semester. I LOVE you.

Augosta Boal and His Ideas

There are just too many theater theorists whom we met this semester. Many of their ideas ,if we looked closely, are valuable for ESL classroom.
In this space I would like you to look at Boal's ideas on theater. What are his ideas and do you think these ideas are different from the ideas of other theater theorists? Which of his ideas in your opinion is beneficial for students, teacher trainees and teachers of ESL?
