Hello wikieducators on course 15....It's wonderful  to be here!

Log of progress in the on line course
I enrolled very late in the free skills training course. After a bit of work on editing and linking [| Day Four] and playing in /My sandbox/ Now I'm improving my profile as part of Day Six I see that there are some stellar examples of user pages here. Below you can see an example of a web resources template from Day 9. See The first page of this tutorial on how to do it. Day ten  - is about navigation and structures. I'm adding a to do list as a sub page to my sandbox.

A little about me
I have had quite an international life. I was born in England, and lived in Spain from 1992 - 96, where I became interested in language learning. After some shorter stays in other places I settled in Saint Petersburg in 2000.

I am interested in using corpus linguistics techniques for creating "English for Specific Purposes" materials with a data-driven lexical approach. I am currently studying courses in the Open University in the UK in their Distance and On-line education programme. The course I'm studying at the moment is on accessibility - this is the question of how a range of different users can have a convenient and pleasant experience from a web site.

Some existing projects that relate to my skills and experience:

 * 1) On Using Moodle (but wouldn't work on this be better done in the  Moodle Community?
 * 2) Esl over at wikiversity
 * 3) Language Daily self-study wiki languages
 * 4)  ELT resources seems to be the centre of this work in WikiEducator for now.
 * 5) ELT_Lexical_Syllabus is a page I'd like to contribute to the ELT resources area

Some pages that I could use in my own teaching practice

 * 1) Rubrics/Wiki_Rubric_Development
