\"Icha\"AZA AZA ACHIEVING 2013<\/b><\/p>\n

I believe everybody has their own passion. For me, teaching has been something that I love doing and hope to be doing for the rest of my life. That\u2019s my passion. I actually am not very good at making New Year\u2019s resolutions, but given the fact that last year was such an amazing year for me, this coming year I want to do more even more than what I\u2019ve done profesionally up till now.<\/p>\n

One of the things that is becoming my goal is to attend more webinars. I meanl I would love to be able to join more conferences, but to be able to travel to do so is a bit hard with my condition at work —\u00a0 but I have found the solution in webinars. There will be a lot of great webinar to attend too. iTDi will host some of them.<\/p>\n

For someone who lives in Asia where traveling to conferences isn\u2019t always possible, the internet can be a teaching aid and webinars one way to keep up with current developments. Another way is to take an online course. I\u2019ve taken some last year and they helped me make my teaching better. So that too becomes one of the things that is on my list for better professional development (PD).<\/p>\n

As someone who\u2019s experienced first hand the power of online community and its role in helping my professional development,\u00a0 I plan on encouraging as many Indonesian teachers as possible to do the same. To do that, I\u2019ll add being a mentor as well as a mentee as another of my \u00a0goals for 2013. I know I still have to learn a lot, but at the same time I want to share my experience — \u00a0as someone who sort of knows her way around the online community — with others who\u2019d love to give it a shot. That is why I\u2019m so thrilled to participate in the upcoming Global Teacher Development Workshop<\/a><\/b> on February 4th in Jakarta and February 6th in Bandung, Indonesia as well as in the International English Workshop<\/a> <\/b>on February 2nd in Semerang. I hope I could get more teachers in Indonesia to see that self development can come in many ways. When \u00a0you use the internet effectively — like by joining iTDi for example — \u00a0you can find more ways to reflect on your teaching and achieve more.<\/p>\n

\"YITZHA<\/b><\/p>\n

And for my class, my resolution this year is to try more things with them. I\u2019m planning to implement some of the ideas I\u2019ve got from the conferences and webinars I\u2019ve attended, \u00a0too. I\u2019ll definitely try Wordle for my phonic lessons as well as \u00a0Voki and Vocaroo. I\u2019m not sure how many to try right away as I\u2019ll also prepare \u00a0for the annual championship (quiz bee, math, spelling and drama) in May and a musical concert along with their graduation in June — but we will sure try them all.<\/p>\n

Of course, this will all require \u00a0very good time management, but hey, when it comes to making resolutions, I may as well go big for it.\u00a0 I\u2019ve got the drive to do \u00a0it all.<\/p>\n

Welcome 2013! Aza aza Achieving!<\/p>\n
