Session 1, Activity 2----Individual Introduction

Hi, everybody. My name is WEN Yuan, and I am glad to study with all of you. You can also call me Rose. My master course is ITE, Information Technology in Education. I majored in law during my undergraduate course which was taken in Guangzhou. Information technology is commonly used in all the fields nowadays. The reason why I chose education field is that I would like to use it to teach others. Since I have already learned in mainland china for eighteen years, I feel boring and be worried about the current education conditions in mainland china. I am here to looking some different way for teaching. The information technology is developing quickly, and entering into the education field. But actually for most of the teachers, it is a different challenge. The apply of IT in education is not simply to change teaching form, but also change the pedagogy concept. I think that is the main reason why the teachers in mainland china can not apply IT well in education. I hope I can find some practical ways to teach by using information technology. Teaching and learning is becoming boring by using traditional teaching approaches, IT may stimulate them into a new level. I think this course will help me to understand it and give me inspirations.
