Final reflection about the course

In my opinion the English course was fun and useful because I made activities different than any other course, and also it has a full schedule of tasks that demonstrate the individual competence.On the other hand, I would not change anything because I think the subject is complete for the professional development. Finally, my personal assessment is 10 points because I think I did all activities on time, and with the maximum effort demonstrating discipline and consistency.

Final reflection about the course

   This course was my first virtual class ever and it was a whole new experience, I learned a lot about being responsible because all works and exams where elaborated on edmodo. 

   

   It was also a good experience meeting people because of the project. Some aspects I would improve are the fact that students can't check their mistakes in the quizes and in the other hand the issues about documents permission and also some sending issues, in my case I had to send some activities 3 times.

Final reflection about the course

This course seemed to me a good initiative to understand a little more English at the professional level and continue to refine more the flaws that I have had when it comes to speaking/writing advanced topics in the language.

I liked least was that the Edmodo does not let you see after presenting the quizzes that you see in that you failed and sometimes change the option of an answer.

I would evaluate a 7 or 8 of 10 because although it was virtual, I did not make the effort to be aware of each assignment or simply forgot and it always is in constant improvement to be succesful in a second language without so many obstacles.

Final reflection about the course

I found this course really useful because it gave me many tools to fix some details about my english. 

I would change the interaction in the quizzes, after every quiz Edmodo does not show you where have you failed, I think that this is an important element because you need to know your mistakes to be better for the next time you have an evaluation. I feel that I gave my maximum effort this quarter, so I evaluate myself 9/10 because we always have to be better. I managed my group in front of evaluations like the social project and the memo. I also have been really active during the whole term.

Reflection about your Simulation Discussion. What was the hardest part? What was the nicest part?

The most difficult part of doing the social project was to record the scenes and make the arrangement of the video, since it takes time that everything is well. The best part of the social project was the integration of the group, we all got deeply involved, we learned things from each one of us.

Reflection about simulation discussion

The hardest part about  making  the social project was writing the script and to planify the interaction between the students to make it feel like it is real. For the writing we had enough information to develop our ideas and at the end we made a great dialogue. We were inspired by nowaday´s business meetings where some companies use apps like FaceTime or Skype to connect their ideas to co-workers who are in other countries. Another difficult aspect about the dialogue could be the intention that  we we wanted to give a good amount of time for everyone.

The best part about the social project was the fact that we had fun because of our mistakes during the filming. The team has good bloopers to talk about. We also advised to our partners when they needed help or had a doubt about how not forgetting lines or how to have a good interaction with the camera. It was a great experience and we met each other and spent a good time.

Reflection about your Simulation Discussion

   Making a Simulation Discution about the project was a great and new experience. The hardest part of it was definitely record it because everyone is shy to speak in public and also it wasn't easy the part of acting, none of us usually record videos. On the other hand we had a good time, we could meet, make jokes and also laugh at ourselves.

Reflection about Simulation Discussion

The most difficult part of doing the project was trying to make the discussion as natural as possible, correctly pronounce each word and try not to have nerves when it comes to rehearsing them. Also in the dialogue part was quite complicated because there was a lot of information about it and we had to choose something according to the current situation. The nicest part was when we started recording and sometimes we forgot to say and we laughed to do it again. The part of the bloopers was the best because sometimes we forgot a line, some action we had to do or a bad word pronounced and we laughed so that we had to do it again until it came out correctly.

Would you use Social Media in your business?

Nowadays, Social Media is a very important tool in every activity that we do. It connects you with the whole world by the power of just one click. I would use it because it gives to my business the power to connect and know the thoughts of the customers, the most valuable people to listen.

Lately, many companies around the World have experienced issues with the management of social media and their employees. Then, I would create policies to keep a control and to avoid problems inside the offices and in the marketing strategies the company would run. One of the policies could be to limit the usage of the social media primarily for employment purposes to the workers. Other policy could be the creation of a social network council that controls all the social media plans that the company has.
