CREATING MY FIRST OWN BLOG

This blog has been created in a course for UVM teachers in july of 2009. This course have the objective to give us some estrategies and a lot of resourses for teach any subjects and topics in English.

The use of the blogs is one of the resourses were recommended to us for teaching.

MY CLASS: PHYSICS I

Physics I
Brief description of the class: This class is for Ss of Civil Engineering at the Autonomous University of Aguascalientes. The content of this class is relative to the principles of measuring, measure units, scalar and vectorial quantities, principles of kinematics and dynamics, including the Newton’s Laws, and also studies some about potential and kinetic energies and their uses and consequences.
Class Objectives: Actually this class is in Spanish, but if we suppose that were possible to teach it in English, then the main objective could be:
The Ss reach learn and use fluently the main terms in English used in Physics studying at the same time they get understand the content of the syllabus and how that knowledge can be used to understand a lot of things that happens in a real life situations.
My expectations for my class: If I follow supposing that this class could be in English, I could expect that my Ss were capable to use much more sources to develop their knowledge in any technical topics than they can do consulting only in Spanish and so they will have got an important advantage versus monolingual Ss.
