A english learner journey

I used Meta AI to look at my school work. It really made me think about how I am doing. The tool gave me ideas about how to make my writing, like how to use grammar and organize my thoughts and pick the right words. Even though Meta AI can give me feedback I learned that it is still important to think about what I am doing and work with other people. When I use technology and my teacher helps me I get an education. This activity also helped me understand what is expected of me when I write for school and how to make my writing better by looking at it again.

For this activity our professor gave us an English grammar book. Asked us to look at a reading passage. We then used Meta AI to make questions that students can answer to see if they understand the passage. This experience showed how artificial intelligence can help teachers plan lessons and save time.. It also showed that we need to look at what the artificial intelligence makes and change it so it fits what the students need to learn. The artificial intelligence should help the teacher not do the thinking, for them. The teacher needs to use their thinking and creativity when they are teaching and the artificial intelligence should just help with that. The teachers job is to teach. The artificial intelligence should just be a tool to help the teacher do that.

In this lesson plan we created activities for students who are just starting out, these activities help them learn how to give directions and understand where places are in a city. We taught them words, like library, street, corner, how far something is and traffic light. Students practiced asking and giving directions using maps acting out scenarios and working with a partner. This lesson helped students talk to each other and use language in a way that activities that make sense in life help students remember vocabulary better. This is because they connect what they learn with situations like giving directions. Example

Writing an abstract was really helpful because it made us explain things in an clear way.  In class we were taught how to find the points of something we read and put them together in a short way, w e also learned from each other for example w hen my classmates checked my work it helped me find the mistakes I made with grammar make my writing easier to understand and help it to become an academic writer. I was able to look at my work and think about how I was doing and what I was good at and what I needed to work on with my academic writing skills and my abstract. The abstract and the class and the feedback, from my classmates all helped me with my writing skills.

Our research and what we did in the classroom were based on the ideas we learned from the framework. We looked at ideas about teaching languages in a way that gets people talking learning by doing things and making sure the students are the people in the classroom. The language learning theories we studied are important because they help teachers make decisions and plan what to do in the classroom. When we gave our presentation we talked about how these language learning theories work in schools and how they help people learn languages. This really helped me with the words I use when I am talking about things it helped me get better at researching and it made me feel more confident when I have to talk about things, in English.

Action research is an useful thing that helps teachers figure out what they are doing in the classroom and make it better. In our project about culture we looked at how things that are popular on social media affect the way students talk to each other behave and learn. We found out that viral content can actually be a thing in the classroom if it is connected to what students are supposed to be learning. Things like videos, memes and talking about things online can get students more involved and excited about learning if they are used in a responsible way. This experience taught me that teachers nowadays have to be able to adapt to the way students really live and use technology in an creative way, in education so viral culture and social media trends and technology are really important for teachers to understand and use effectively in the classroom and that action research is a great tool for teachers to do that.
