Enhancing courses with HTML Blocks in Avenue
An HTML block is a dynamic and highly customisable block that allows developers and instructors the ability to add digital content on the sidebar of their course page. It is flexible and can incorporate a variety of functions in the content area. It allows you to format text, add images, text links, buttons, embed video, sounds, flashcards, files or Dictionary widgets, and other unique elements to a course or site page. The possibilities are perhaps limitless. What’s more, there is no limit to the number of HTML blocks that you can add to a course.

My second-language acquisition experience
My personal experience of second language acquisition (SLA) is divided into three stages: initial (1996-2000), intensive (2001-2003), and progressive (2004-2023). Throughout these stages, I have studied English as a second language (L2) using various methods and techniques, the majority of which have been related to the Task-based and Communicative learning approaches. Most significant and notable results in my SLA have been achieved in times when I felt high levels of stress caused by lack of sufficient command of L2, fear of failure and sense of responsibility. In this essay, I aim to briefly describe my SLA experience and what conclusions I draw from it.

У каждого преподавателя должен быть свой сайт
Каждый преподаватель - это микро школа. Именно в классной комнате происходит основной обучающий процесс - когда имеют место диалог и взаимодействие между преподавателям и учениками. И каждому преподавателю, как и каждой школе стоит иметь свой сайт. Почему? - Потому что ваша методология, ваши преподавательские ресурсы, учебные материал, отзывы учеников, статьи, учебники, личные разработки, пособия - это все и даже больше может и, на мой взгляд, должно быть отображено на вашем сайте.
