Introduction and Personal Evaluation of Tooning

I will go BETT show

 

저는 BETT show 에 갈 것입니다.

가서 세계의 다양한 에듀테크에 대해 보고 듣고 배워올 것입니다..

그곳에서 다른 나라 사람들과 나의 교육에 대해 이야기하고,

토론을 하고 싶어요.

그렇게 하려면

영어로 나의 교육을 표현할 수 있어야 하는데,

지금은 들어도 모르고,

말로 표현하는 것은 너무 어렵습니다.

그래서 이전에 해왔던 저의 교육활동과

앞으로 저의 활동들을

모두 영어로 번역해서 블로그에 올릴 예정입니다.

그리고 매일 소리내어 읽어볼 생각입니다.

다른 사람들 앞에서 당당하게 말할 수 있을 때까지!

GoGo BETT Show

The evaluations of edtech tools summarized here are personal opinions and should be used as simple references. There are many better tools out there, but I feel constrained by time to review them all, realizing I often live like a frog in a well. Therefore, I welcome recommendations for better tools or good ideas. However, I wish to avoid time-wasting debates. Thank you.
