Autobiographic sketch

After reading your story, I have decided to tell my husband that there is a pilot at this class. He must be curious about your job. Being a pilot is indeed a dream for most of young boys, just like my husband. You are outstanding among the peers.

As you said, "My life experience working in other cultures (often in very difficult war time settings) has made me a good listener and a patient communicator." I bet you are a good leader in your career. Hope you can share more with us in ADOL 576.

chapter 1

Ahmed,

Good sharing! From your posting, you had great opportunities to work with people from different countries. What a wonderful experience!

Could you share something interesting happened to you with us? For example, with your Filipino friends, did you misunderstand their meaning and make all of you laugh?

chapter 2

Jui-Ting,

Yes, your filters may apply well in your job for hiring new people, but it indeed is not suitable in your interpersonal relationship.

When we meet a new friend, we need to take time to communicate with (or get acquainted with) each other. In this way, we will understand if he/she is your good friend in your life. Compared to hire a new employee in a short time, we need more time to know other people. Do you agree?

About me

Welcome to Hui-Wen's portfolio where I can share something with the students in ADOL 576 for Spring 2009 semester.

Currently, I am a first-year doctoral student in education at the University of Idaho. I had been a college instructor in Taiwan for 3 years. My research interests are educational technology and TESOL. After having the practical experiences in using technology into teaching, I recognize that I need to get more theoretical and practical trainings in American higher education. I am also a mother of a 16-year-old daughter. (Believe me, I am 30 years old every year!!) My daughter and I live at Moscow, ID. If you are interested in knowing about Taiwan, I am glad to share this beautiful island with you. Click here to get more information about Taiwan. ;-)


It's my pleasure to work with Dr. Jerry Tuchscherer during my Ph.D. program. He is one of the most popular professors at the University of Idaho. (Does anyone disagree? No!~) Hope all the students taking ADOL 576 will enjoy the online learning activities in spring 2009.


If you have any questions about the assignments, please post your concerns on the class blog.
