Through RSS reader, I am able to collect more useful blogs and information more productively. The second picture in this page was a comment that I made when I followed a teacher's blog. She has many creative ideas on students' handcraft. I like the work that her students made because I think it is important when students are touching things and doing hands-on activities in their learning.
The first picture indicates some feeds that I collected in my google reader. There are feeds about education laws, how to use technology in teaching and also there are feeds about Chinese language teaching methods and ideas.
In these days, I checked my google reader very often. It really surprised me when I saw all the helpful information I got. I had stories about Chinese history or methods in teaching sentence structures. It has became my habit to checked the news in my google reader.
These materials inspire me for more ideas in teaching. Also, my RSS reader allows me to contact with people who are sharing the same experience with me. There are Chinese teachers, as well as students who learn Chinese. These students will write blog and talk about the strategies that help them in Chinese learning. Once, I read an article about using games in Chinese learning and the students recommended ZON. This is something new to me, but I am glad that I know this because I can in turn recommend it to my own students.
Moreover, there are teachers who upload their teaching material such as pictures, lesson plans and I can take what I need then make it my own.
The RSS reader broaden my vision in Chinese teaching and it also saved me lots of time and effort in looking for materials randomly online.
