The website aims at students of beginning level with no Chinese background. So far it’s still at the early stage, and there have no registered students yet. I will keep working on it and hopefully in the near future I will be able to observe students learning Chinese with online technology.

NoteMesh is a free service that allows students in the same classes to share notes with each other. First of all the teacher needs to create an online class, then invite students to join in. The users, including teachers and students, can post and edit the text files together for free.

They believed that schools didn’t offer what students wanted to learn, and even violated the way they learned – but games did.

You get some information; you interpret it; you get new information; you try to fit it in; if you can't, you change your interpretation. If you imagine this process repeated again and again, it's easy to see how people can get better and better at interpreting their environments, and why you might think something kind of crazy for a while, http://mayacraft.blogspot.com/2007/09/notes-abstract-of-piadets-theory.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Maya)1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8703338621769317872.post-1707244930434723699Thu, 27 Sep 2007 18:49:00 +00002007-09-27T14:55:22.763-04:00CEP800I tried several times, but I couldn't upload edited file of interview (mp3 file, 4.8M) on to this blog.
