Module 9: Using Office software in a computer room

This module has been a real eye-opener..... The things you can do with especially PowerPoint is amazing. I learned so many new things in this module. I liked the 'How people live' activity in Word, as you can adapt and use it in so many different ways.I also like the 'description' activity again in Word, as I thought that such an activity might get the students to feel like a teacher when they get boring texts without any details from the students—instead of a vivid description that activates imagination.

My favorites have been the PowerPoint activities though.....'Add a caption'--- and reported speech. Getting the students to create their own conversations and stories.... Never taught reported speech in this way....Would like to try it one day when/if I have students at this level. To promote creativity and trigger imagination, creating picture stories by using clip art is a very good idea. What is even better is getting the students to take their own photos, and then create their own stories by uploading the photos and using them in their PowerPoint story creations.

I enjoyed this module a lot. First time I produced speech bubbles in PowerPoint. I am proud of myself :)))
