Dear Awards Committee,
I have known and collaborated with Gyöngyi for the past four
and a half years. I have never been to
Hungary and she has never been to the United States, but I still have been
allowed to join with her in great educational experiences. I first met her when I joined the Skype group
called Hello Little World Skypers
https://sites.google.com/site/skypershello/
. I was amazed to see that her little
ones in a small school in Hungary were already experiencing other cultures,
reaching out to the world during their study of English. Students have many
choices and get to chose the one they like best. They’ve done Glogs and blogs
and wikis, video and audio, computer art and traditional. They’ve written postal
mail letters when their ePals needed that.
She’s included locations from around the world in projects
such as “life in our countries”, “Tourism”, “Regional Events”, and “Music
Around the World”
They even were kind enough to include my ‘Catherine Cat’
during a Skype session with me one day.
In all this Gyöngyi has been an inspiration and great model
for her students. She’s careful to allow
them freedom in collaborations outside their classroom, within the bounds of
courtesy, awareness of differences, and care for their private information.
When she does not know how to do something, she asks,
investigates, learns - often with the help of a student - and then shares her
new learning with everyone. Students are allowed to use their favorite means of
communication while collaborating, but all are encouraged to TRY the new thing
to see if they like it. Students are
also asked to reflect on the project as well as their participation and style
of learning. As they grow older,
sometimes they find they have new favorites.
It’s not only with the students that Gyöngyi encourages
‘taking that leap into the new.’ She
encourages her colleagues to try things also, with varying acceptance. She is always contributing within the
HLWSkypers group and is always willing to share with a new person just how she
learned something. In like manner, her students are always willing to meet with
others, sometimes even staying after school in order to do so.
I think Gyöngyi is a great role model for teachers across
the world, proving you don’t need a great deal of money or all the latest
equipment if you have a creative mind and are willing to use what you DO have.
