Week 2: The time I have is not the time I need!

After having looked at noodletools.com and scrolling down to see all the pages and search engines it contains, I actually felt extremely disappointed. Why would someone feel disappointed with so many resources available? Exactly because of that! So many resources available and so little time available!

It amazes me the amount of information and resources that the internet has. Every time I get the chance to have a look at the pages, the information and the resources,  my curiosity gets agitated and feels like a kid in a candy store. However, reality makes its come back and reminds me of the other responsibilities and duties that we as humans beings cannot simply ignore.  

People, places, answers, opinions, contra-perspectives,  political topics, news on health, politics, economics, education, maps, photographs, videos, speeches, sounds, encyclopedias, books, even articles for writing ABCD objectives ;) ... the possibilities for planning awesome, interesting classes and acquiring knowledge are virtually endless.

I guess we have to take one step at a time... otherwise, we (both students and teachers) might stumble and fall in our stride to get ahead of ourselves. Don't you agree?

Finally, I am pleased to share with you a quote I found, and liked on http://www.quotationspage.com (provided in noodletools.com):

  1. Hi David!
    I loved your description " like a child in a candy store", I exactly felt the same ! you are right the amount of this information is really amazing, but we should not feel disappointed. why? because everything we learn in this course is not only for the sake of the course itself rather than it's a knowledge we learn for the future to help[ us develop our skills for teaching as well as to help our students, they are always there and if we can't check them now that's not the end of the road.
    Cher up our friend !
