my comments about Yahoo groups, Lextutor, guia web, etc.
Well, I think that Yahoo Groups is ok because we can join to groups af people according to our topics of interest and share ideas and information about it. I guess we can give feedback and complement each other when exchanging information on the themes we choose to talk about.
Regarding Lextutor, I think it is a little bit cimplex and confusing; in fact I had to think how to go from one link to another, or from one activity to another. At first glance, the design og the page was so agressive for my eyes, I mean the combination of colors is strong. I have to take another look so I can explore it deeply and try to find its applications to my work as a teacher or my activities as a student. But in general it has good activities and several languages to work on.
On the other hand, I was taking a look to Guia Web and I think is useful for me as a techer and a student. NOwadays TIC´s are taking more importance in the worldf with the globalization and we as teachers or students have to be able to handle with this kind of thechnologies and be prepared and willing to learn with and throuhgt conputers using interner to communicate with others. So it is important to know how to create a we site and how to handle withit. So this site provides me the necessary tools in order to guide me towards reaching a good or acceptable level of knowledge in computers and internet. If we can work with this, we will be able to to work independently, creating and giving maintenance to our equipment.

REFLECTION ABOUT THE FINAL PROJECT
First I would like to thank my partners Zuleima, Alejandro and Marisa for being with me in this project; for their tolerance and patience in certain moments. I really enjoyed working with them because they are great partners and friends who were engaged and dedicated with the project. And I could notice that we are a really special team, we help each other when necessary under all kind of circumstances. We spent many hours working together in the design of the Blog tEeNsTuFF. Another amazing thing is that we complement each other very well.
On the other hand I have to say that I learned a lot of things with this project; not only the ones I got in my classes but the ones from real life, from unluky and happy situations, etc. I learned from my partners how to work as a real team and be tolerant and respectful always. Maybe that was the key to work harmoniously.
I will say a very plain reflection about the project. We were working together for many days. We agreed since the beginning to create a blog for teenagers and the way to do it. We used to be together at school in Self-access, at the UJED´s library, at Marisa´s home or even in a café. The point was to work in a place where we could be comfortable and "deploy" all the things, books, magazines and computers we used to carry.
Each one of us is good in something and we joined our talents to have a successful product(the blog). We had special commissions to investigate and find adequate materials and then select the ones which best suits for our project.
We really liked our blog because is the result of an investigation about the likes and preferences of the teenagers to study english. The first step was to apply a questionnaire to twenty one students of secondary school level in three different schools. Their answers were very interesting and helped us to design the blog and choose the activities for it. What the students said was taken into account to be part of the Blog.
In the Blog we included eclectic activities, this means that each one of them fullfill with characterisctis from several methodologies and approaches.
Finally I want to thank all the teachers for their patience and help any time we needed; for their feedack and suggestions/recommendations
