Simply Delicious

Hi Everyone !

How should I start? With a loud cry? With a  victorious cry? Or with the roaring sound of the Royal Bengal Tigers? Please, don't think that Mr. Khayrul has gone crazy or has been out of mind. Please, don't be so rude. I am just overwhelmed, spell bound, just speechless. I am struggling to form my joy into words, into meaningful sentences. But often I don't find right expressions. How is it possible for me to find the utterances , to find the appropriate syntax?

Friends, it is indeed a real joy. It is indeed a DELICIOUS joy. Honestly speaking, I never thought of the existence of such a miracle, of such a marvel. I simply never imagined. The very short experience and memory with DELICIOUS are awesome. It is sweeter. I was amazed when I saw that I could put my all favorite sites in a page and use them whenever I want with minimum effort. 

Do you know what I used to do just one week ago? I used to write the URL of the my essential sites in a notebook. Surely, boring and tiresome. Difficult to maintain. But delicious! A source of excitement? A sea of information? Easy to use. Matter of clicking.

The week is delicious because of the discussions  on CULL and oral/aural skills. Though we, the teachers of English in Bangladesh, are living in a modern world, we do not have an easy and available access to Computer Assistant Language Learning, But the the week has introduced me to the system at least theoretically. Surely better scopes are waiting for me. Actually, the articles were resourceful, timely and above all, nicely suited to the purpose of the course.

My navigation and exploration of the given links were also a very good experience. Sites like ESL-galaxy.com, One Stop English, and Randall's Cyber Listening Lab were really fantastic. It would also be unfair if I do not mention the sites like  Listening Real English video, the BBC and Best Sites to Practice Speaking English as these are also a big help for both the teachers and the learners.

Should I ignore the the project reports of my senior trainees? How do I dare to do so ? Obviously those are  well thought, well written, exquisitely organized. These articles are big helps for us to go ahead and to look forward with ours what we are going to do at the end of the course. 

Finally, first week was a week of excitement and over flux joy of creating and writing in a blog and of being introduced and assimilated with the situation.  Second week brought new dimension with the project task and an exploration of hundreds of web links. And the third week is for new sensation with the entrance to the DELICIOUS world, project analysis, and contextual link seasrching.

Shouldn't I wait for more excitement and more resources in the coming weeks.?
