What is the future of reading books?

Although the want for e-book services in libraries has grown, and so the number of people with e-readers, some difficulties still keep libraries from being able to provide the popular technology. Just recently have most big publishers agreed to sell e-books to libraries for public use. It has taken many years but publishers of electronic books now realize that libraries providing an e-book to patrons can be a huge opportunity for advertising and usually results in patrons becoming customers.

What Are My Needs As An English Language Teacher?

Halina's Conversational English Video

This is my opening class for Halina’s Conversational English Course on WizIQ.

I created this video to make it possible for everyone to get familiar with Virtual Classes and online teaching. You can see how I use the tools available on WizIQ.

I am very sorry about the quality of the recording. It is obvious that I have to improve my technical skills.

I am counting on your empathy and support.

Enjoy…..

Science of Learning

 

 

This is an excellent presentation        

 

 

by Nellie Deutsch Science of Learning

 

 

The mission of the newly formed Science of Learning Institute is to understand the most essential part of our human capital: the ability to learn. The Institute supports research and application that seeks to understand learning at all levels of scientific inquiry—including how the brain changes through learning, how development and aging affects our ability to learn, how neurological and psychiatric diseases disrupt or change learning, and why there are such vast individual differences that naturally occur among learners. A central part of the mission is to understand how new technologies such as machine learning and new educational programs can optimize learning—whether it occurs in the informal setting of the playground, the more formal setting of a school, a rehabilitation program, or on-the-job training.
