I'm late in the game (the first week of this course was our final week of pre-sessional with nothing but exams, resits and many late nights marking, last week I had a journal issue due out, and this week I was finishing off final corrections on my thesis which was submitted on Thursday!) I hope I'm still able to participate now that I have a week off to fully commit! Today I'm watching lessons 2 and 3, but here's my week 1 HW. Homework #1 Should it be done? •Who would read/use my material? English teachers, teaching students of any level/ L1 and in any context •Why? What would they gain from it? Regardless of teachers' knowledge of pronunciation (something which is often lacking due to minimal training) the book would give them downloadable or printable 'tools' to use to assess (diagnostically) what their learners are struggling with in terms of perception and production of English- there are very few diagnostic tools available anywhere online or in books a...
Hi Taghrid, it says it's set to private. I requested permission, but could you change it so that everybody can see it? Barbara Hoskins Sakamoto can help you do that if you're having trouble.
ReplyDeleteGot it! This is a good start (and don't worry, it's everybody's first time to do it!).
ReplyDeleteYou're so shy.... hahaha. Man the title bigger. MUCH BIGGER. (I like that font, though--very friendly.)
Then the subtitle--MAKE IT BIGGER.
For your own name, remove the word "by." And then ... guess what? MAKE IT BIGGER.
People will see ebook covers as tiny squares. So you want your title to be large enough for people to read it, even when the image is small.
Dorothy Zemach Hi, yes, I checked the settings. Thank you for your feedback and thank you for your encouraging words. I will follow your comments. Did you get the introduction of the book?
ReplyDeleteHi Taghrid, well done on getting a cover! You're more decisive than me (I made 8 because I couldn't decide, lol). I agree with Dorothy - bigger, bigger, bigger... One question: it says "new teachers" but also "experienced teachers" on the cover. Does that mean they're experienced teachers but new to your institute? or something else??
ReplyDeleteI am not decisive at all😁, ,I just designed one version because it was frustrating and I was afraid of not submit it before deadline .
ReplyDeleteI meant by experienced teachers that the tips will be advised by the ecperinced teachers for the new teachers. I forgot the apostrophe after teachers 😊. Thank you Kate for your comments. I appreciate it.
Taghrid Abu Sneida Ha! That is exactly why we have deadlines! :) Well done.
ReplyDeleteTrue. agree with you.
ReplyDeleteDid you try it again in a larger font? I agree with Dorothy that it would look good if it was bolder. Also, it might be nice to play around with colours - maybe something “happier”, like green? Not sure. Anyway, you have lots of time to continue to play with it. The inside is probably more important for now! Good luck.
ReplyDeleteYes Kate I will make changes before the deadline.
