It's too cold here... my fingers are like little dark blue stones so I can hardly write... my thoughts freeze in the very moment they occur...
Today we made a new blog working in groups. Though we were divided into randomly selected groups, almost everybody went along working with his friends again. So I went with Lina and Laura - two beautiful blond girls, one form Russia, the other - from Latvia. All of us (or so me and Laura believe) speak Russian so it was fun refreshing my foreign language skills. Three of us made a new blog on teaching matters, everyone could go and see it here It's fun but besides that it's a real experience because me and Lina have to pretend we are students and Laura should behave as being our teacher - a kind of psychodrama that makes me look at the education process in another way and from another perspective. I think walking in someone's shoes helps a person see clearer the world he operates in even it is as small as a class-room and be more adequate to needs of others. I should do this more often... it's kinda refreshing...
Now I have to go doing my homework - it's hard here and professors are very demanding!

Hi Nikolay.. I really enjoyed reading your blog. I'm really glad to see that you have decided computers will not take over the relationship you have with students, it will just assist with that relationship. I will be so glad to read more of your blog as your class goes on. :)
PS--Don't worry too much about your demanding professors, deep down they are kind and just really want you to learn the most you can! :)
Hallo Ms Smith,
Cool to have you writing on my blog. Frankly I am much into Internet but I've never been into blogs and now I find it FUN! Besides that they give me much to think about as well...
Have to go, the demanding professor is here so I have to hide somewhere... and he puts electricity on the boards, so I must not write anymore...
See ya!
