Webskills e-teaching overview :Weeks one and two are over, due...
So, I feel happy to join that course now as I've learned lot's of new information on teaching methods and theory, such are Rubrics (W1), ABCD taxonomy and digitally (fitting to CALL) (W2). And I could try to apply it to my ballet students course to start in September...Hope so.
As for Webtools information, up now, there is really a litte new for me, as Nicenet, Blogs, Googledoc/sites, search engines and so on. The only exception is SnapGrades : I use Exel table or any googledocs one instead for students grading (it's pretty time-eating and even 'harsh' 'side of the moon' 4me,BTW).
See what alse could we get.
P.S. I suppose to copy here some of my Nicenet discussion posts and project drafts...

WEEK1 post
It seems that you are the only one in that discussion(I may be wrong,sorry) who mentioned a very important thing in education and any professional communication: ethical and moral "backstage and envelope" of academic teaching.
In my opinion,that is the first thing we should always bear in mind at our "low start":with students or colleagues, or any other people...
They say: "Don't take it personal" and "Do others only what you want them to do for you". These are the golden business rules. So, may be let's start with something like CODE OF CONDUCT which could include Netiquette and the said Rubrics, Rules of fair Discussion and so on.What do you think?..

We are all professionals and fluent English speakers, and we respect others' opinions and "politically correct".
As for writing style, it could be academic or neutral register (which is also very good!), but clear and consize anyway.
I would also prefer analytical rubrics because I try to teach students thinking first before they do something. And,sure,to be moral and ethical in communication. Discussion should be fair and course tutor(mentor) is the only judge.
