When Cecilia asked as to create a blog, I had no clue what for. As I got more accustomed, I started to really like it. My thinking process, linking what I read with life situations I have encountered and questioning the applicability of some of those concepts played a great role in forming an understanding of the subject matters in my head. I reached so many conclusions and thought about things I have always wanted to learn about but I didn't know the terminology and the theory behind them.

I know consider weather my students are natives or immigrants digitally and use asynchronous and synchronous online resources differently. I really try to personalize class topics and involve my students in planning.
After coming across (Zhang Wei, 2010), I fully understood the whole point behind what we are doing. Luckily I am kind of doing the same thing. This paper encouraged me to try out learning through reflecting in my next session. I have been looking for sufficient ways to collect the reading course work credits and a reflective blog may just be the answer to that.
This video further explain the need and the advantages of reflective learning especially since meaningful life long learning is a product of an ''emotional component'' that is highlighted in learning through reflecting according to Laura Bermudez, the creator of this video.
