Little : Romeo and Juliet

Author : William Shakespeare

My myth is very similar to the story of Romeo and Juliet by Shakespeare. Romeo and Juliet is about two teenage “star-crossed” lovers who despite their family’s rivalry, wed. During their plan, they fall victim to themselves with a simple miscommunication. They end up commit suicide not able to live with out each other. The two stories are similar in their tragic endings. Although I believe that Romeo and Juliet is mach sadder than my myth, I’d like to believe that maybe Shakespeare heard about unlike my myth, When Juliet “dies” she’s really not dead, so when Romeo killed himself it was so heartbreaking. Where as in my myth, when the girl kills herself, it’s more romantic than tragic. It’s the idea of them together forever in the form of a tree vine. Both stories make you itch for that kind of love. To be so in love with someone that you would kill yourself if you lost him or her, It’s little bit scary too. Although I wish for that kind of love sometimes, I also know that I wouldn’t want my whole life to revolve around what someone else’s life is. That’s why I think these stories are so popular , we can live out that fantasy with out taking risks in real life.

WORD PROCESSORS IN THE CLASS ROOM

  • Why use word processors?

Yet word processors can be used in many inventive ways, by both teachers and student.

Teacher can prepare, create, store and share materials for their classes by using a word processing program, and learners can use a word processing program both in and outside the classroom, to practice writing skills, grammar and other language points, as well as to present their work.

  • Word processors for teacher : creating materials.

As a teacher, you may already use a word processing program to prepare worksheets and materials for your learners. You may also use one for correcting, editing and providing feedback on your learners’ digitally submitted written work.

Examined specific word processing tools such as inserting image and link, creating forms, and using TrackChanges.

  • Word processing activities for learners

- Using word processors for creative writing

Word processors themselves well to creative writing both in and outside the classroom.

If your learners are engaged in any kind of creative writing, then spell-checkers would seem to be of help in the same way that we often encourage the use of dictionaries, and professional people and other writes will use these tools as a matter of course in their day-to-day work.

- Using word processors for language practice

Word processor are not only capably of enhancing writing skills, but can also be excellent tools for introducing for practicing language.

The use of word processors in our teaching not only serves as an aid to language practice or for the improvement of writing skills, but also teachers value ICT skills which will carry through into other areas of their lives.

- Using word processors for presenting work

One final use of word processors to consider is that of encouraging learners to put their word processed documents into a presentation package, possibly as part an ePortfolio of their work.

  • Using word processors :consider

There are some potential downsides to using word processors-not the least of which his working with mixed technological ability classes where typing skills may play large part in performance anxiety and in the pace at which activities are carried out. Some attention must be paid to not putting to much pressure on yours learners to perform too quickly.

1. Technology in Language teaching

Technology in language teaching is not new. Indeed, technology has been around in language teaching for decades-one might argue for centuries, if we classify the blackboard as a form of technology. Tape recorders, language laboratories and video have been in use since the 1960s and 1970s, and are still used in classroom the world.

Although the use of ICT by language teachers is still not widespread, the use of technology in the classroom is becoming increasingly important, and it will become a normal part of ELT practice in the coming years.

2. Attitudes to technology.

A large part of the negatives attitudes teachers have towards technology is usually the result of a lack of confidence, a lack of facilities or a lock of training, resulting in an inability to see the benefit of using technologies in the classroom. It is also often the case that teachers may not be fully in control of their work situation. A teacher may want to news more technology and their teaching but the school may not have the facilities, or, on the other hand, a teachers may be instructed to star using technology for which they fell unprepared on untrained.

3. Implementing ICT in the classroom

You will need to used the internet mainly as a resource with your learners accessing the internet to download and print out material to used offline with classes. Technology –based activities you can do by printing by of materials include:

English Teaching Aids
In my experience as a teacher I have discovered that I can involve students more in classroom discussion and activities if I follow certain simple steps.
Movement
Use body language
Eye contact
Gesture
Facial expression
Speech
Student talk
Names
Sue Davidoff and Owen van den Berg (1990) suggest four steps: plan, teach / act, observe and reflect. Here are some guidelines for each step.
Students learn better and more quickly if the teaching methods used match their preferred learning styles.
As learning improves, so too does self esteem. This has a further positive effect on learning.
Students who have become bored with learning may become interested once again.
The student-teacher relationship can improve because the student is more successful and is more interested in learning.
McCarthy (1980) described students as innovative learners, analytic learners, common sense learners or dynamic learners
Innovative learners...
...look for personal meaning while learning
...draw on their values while learning
...enjoy social interaction
... are cooperative
...want to make the world a better place
Analytic learners...
...want to develop intellectually while learning
...draw on facts while learning
...are patient and reflective
...want to know " important things" and to add to the world's knowledge
Common sense learners...
...want to find solutions
... value things if they are useful
...are kinesthetic
...are practical and straightforward
... want to make things happen
Dynamic learners...
...look for hidden possibilities
...judge things by gut reactions
...synthesize information from different sources
...are enthusiastic and adventurous
What is Media?
In general, "media" refers to various means of communication. For example, television, radio, and the newspaper are different types of media. The term can also be used as a collective noun for the press or news reporting agencies. In the computer world, "media" is also used as a collective noun, but refers to different types of data storage options. Computer media can be hard drives, removable drives (such as Zip disks), CD-ROM or CD-R discs, DVDs, flash memory, USB drives, and yes, floppy disks. For example, if you want to bring your pictures from your digital camera into a photo processing store, they might ask you what kind of media your pictures are stored on. Are they on the flash memory card inside your camera or are they on a CD or USB drive? For this and many other reasons, it is helpful to have a basic understanding of what the different types of media are.
Advantage and disadvantage of media
The media may play these roles, but whether or not they play them to the advantage or disadvantage of the democratic process, is a question that could be answered in many ways. To begin, one might want to look at ways in which media work to the advantage of democracy. One very important way, is that media keeps the nation updated on what is going on with our government, acting as a "natural link between the public and [its] leaders" (-"Understanding the Role of Media").

Poetry is an art form in which human language is used for its aesthetic qualities in addition to, or instead of, its notional and semantic content. It consists largely of oral or literary works in which language is used in a manner that is felt by its user and audience to differ from ordinary prose.

Dorothy Porter Wesley Collection

Dorothy (Louise Burnett) Porter Wesley was born on May 25, 1905, in Warrenton Virginia, the first of four children of Dr. And Mrs. Hayes J. Burnett, Dorothy Burnett received her early education in Montclair, New Jersey. After she graduated from high school, she enrolled in Minor Normal School in Washington, D.C., in 1923. In 1926, she transferred to Howard University and began work as a student assistant in the Founders Library. She graduated from Howard in 1928 with an A.B. and a resolve to continue her education to become a librarian. After working at the Howard University Library as a cataloger, Burnett enrolled in the Columbia University School of Library Science and in 1931 received a B.L.S. She received a scholarship to attend graduate school at Columbia from the Julius Rosenwald Fund and was awarded an M.L.S. in 1932, becoming the first African-American woman to do so.

Dorothy Porter Wesley, librarian, bibliographer, scholar, historian and archivist, was for 43 years (1930-1973) the curator of the Moorland-Spingarn Collection at Howard University in Washington, D.C. Under her guidance a small special collection grew into a world-renowned research library. Today the Moorland-Spingarn Research Center is considered by many to be one of the world's most comprehensive repositories of information on the history and culture of people of African descent.


The Dorothy Porter Wesley special collection at the African-American Research Library and Culture Center offers the public the opportunity to review over 5,200 titles from rare books to more recent authors, books that have been autographed by their authors or notable historical individuals, magazines, and newspapers like Harper's Weekly Journal of Civilization an example of which is shown here.


The collection will be presented for viewing in the general public areas of AARLCC in 2007, but access is available to all now, with some limitations as to the use of this material with a restriction of reviewing the collection only in special environmentally controlled rooms and without the normal checkout procedures of the general collection.
