Week 7 was a very informative week to me. It reviewed my ideas and schemata about learner autonomy and the one computer classes. This week opened the horizons for me to find effective means to use the lectures which is mainly one computer based more interactive. I think my idea about the computer as a tool to play in the lecture is not correct, it is rather a partner to depend on the lecture and to add liveliness to the lecture.
Teachers should think of new jobs to this partner in the form of interactive software and activities. I think hyper-linked and interactive web based activities can change the traditional lecture into a more live one. I browsed the internet for this new lecturing form and I found that they call it "the modified lecture" and it is one
for of the active learning strategies which can promote learner autonomy. I think yhis week I could find a connection between ;earner autonomy and the one computer class. This connection is, you can use technology to promote learner autonomy even if it is a one computer class.
