Hello everyone,
I am back again with new experiences from Week 2, 3 and 4.
The Faculty Development Programme is going on and officially we are in the Week 4 now! The journey so far has been full of excitement and madness in terms of getting acquainted with new technologies, softwares, creation of resources etc. In between we got an opportunity to talk to our assigned Mentor, other peers through Learning Experience Interaction channel. I really want to express here that the Mentor assigned to us (075) is very cooperative. Mr Praveen Srivastava sir, our Mentor, has been always supportive and gives us valuable information on discussion forums and Watsapp group. I really thank him for his constant support in listening to my queries and problems and also providing solutions.
The Week 2 turned out to be more interactive as we got the opportunity to interact with other peers from across the country. The A-View facility helped me to understand the dynamics of ICT in today’s education system. It was really interesting to see how all the participation were actively engaged in the process. Not only the participants but the course coordinator and other members were constantly interacting with the respondents and answering to the queries. It was amazing experience. This reflects the enthusiasm of the participants to learn new technology for a better education tomorrow. But the process got little affected by poor network at times, some recording and video issues which act as barrier in assimilating the information accurately.
I also got to learn about Open Source Leanring Management Sysytem Moodle, which I am still working on. Apart from the regular LeD, LbDs, the level of practice assignments are getting tougher. I worked on making a website on WordPress, a Moodle site on Gnomio and currently learning to prepare the spoken video tutorial on CamStudio. Within this short duration, I got exposed to learn so many software and technical jargons. I am happy that I am part of this FDP and hope to finish all assignments perfectly and on time.
One of the learning platform is the discussion board, which provides you with so many updates, queries, issues and solutions too. The FDP team regularly provides information on the new assignments, the process and also the guidelines. It is really helpful. I follow the discussion board regularly and it keeps me updated.
Overall, it is more than learning online!
I thank everyone for their comments/suggestions/ in my posts and wish to have better academic discourses in future.
