#2 WILL IT BE WORTH? (eLEARNING)

        "We are now in the Computerize World" as the speaker said during our seminar on Computer-Aided Instruction (CAI) we back year 2000 at Cebu City, he added: "If you are illiterate in computer, then you have no place in this world..." that statement strucked me most, why? Because that time I was one who is very "innocent" about computer.... but that statement also made me courageous and persistent to learn and study even just the basic of computer.
          Now, I can say I'm no longer one of them.... I believe that to be competitive in today's generation, I would say that its really worth to study and apply eLEARNING in the teaching-learning  situation. As teacher in the college, I must "always" be updated in the new trends of education.... what can I give if I have learned nothing about technology. Thus, I say.... its worth to have eLEARNING especially in the urban schools.

#1 ARE YOU READY for eLEARNING?

Perhaps.... Maybe.....
     In today's generation, I believe that eLEARNING can make a teacher especially in the college, a difference towards teaching-learning environment, where youth are very much influence with the art of Technology. Thus, I need to be ready and more knowledgeable if not expert in the new trends of teaching where IT-integrated instruction is highly recommended especially in the higher education.
        Personally, I'm ready for eLEARNING with the help of my expert professor, who taught me and my colleagues the real essence of eLEARNING.I was able to enhance my teaching strategies and techniques from what I've learned from him, I even apply it to my class in Educational Technology especially the blogging.... their reflections per lesson as their quiz... no more paper-pen quiz... I know it benefits my students a lot, as they said that they're amazed and enjoyed doing it.
         Yes. I'm ready but not that much, since there's still a lot to study about eLEARNING.... I believe nothing is impossible as long as there is willingness to learn and enthusiasm to apply in the class... in the teaching-learning process.
