The forth also the last week in Hawaii
A mixed feeling comes to my mind but I think other members in our team are also the same. We are really between the line of feeling. One is very happy because we are going to back to our home countries where our families are counting days and time to see us after 3 months away. The other is sad. Three months is not long enough to love all but not too short to forget. Of course, there may be some disagreements happening among us during the time of studying and working together. However, deeply in each of our heart, I totally believe that we all keep at least a very beautiful memory about each member in the group. Hope this project will last long and our friendship will be forever.
The first day is a day of many small activities.
In the morning, we are introduced to the Copyright which is very important in U.S. but I think it is not paid much attention to in our country. Thanks to today lesson, we know that there are many thing related to using or quoting others' works. They can be
1. Copyright: we have to ask for permission or pay for using the others' product.
2. FairUse: we can use others' work without paying but just for educational purposes only or just quote a little from their works for our educational projects.
3. Creative Common: there are four common signs on this but I am not really sure about the. I must ask the professor for clarifying in tomorrow class.
4. Open sources: there are many sources especially soft wares that are open online. All people can use them but upgrade them day by day.
The afternoon is fantastic because we learn many things related to Gmail. It is unbelievable that there are so many applications in Gmail that I have never known before.
1. Hangout: an application that people can use to chat together.
2. Site: to design simple personal website.
Then, we also have a chance a work with Wordle. It is a nice software which I think English teachers can use especially in their writing class. By using Wordle, students can realize whether they use a particular so many times or not. If so, they can back to their assignment and change them to the synonyms. Thanks to that, I think their writing styles will be better and the vocabulary will be richer day by day.
Here is the website that you all can try it free: www. Wordle.com
The second only the last day of learning. I feel a little sad and regretful when hearing the professor announces that today is the class day of learning. The day after for voting and sharing our blog as well as preparing for the final project presentation. The last day is for group presentations.
Today, we also learn many interesting things. However, I got stuck here and can't say anything about this class day.

The Copyright in VietNam
The Copyright in VietNam.
The Copyright had been mentioned about in Viet Nam in 1987 under the name of Hang bao ho Quyen tac gia Viet Nam (the Office to Protect the Copyright of Authors of Vietnam) which was then renamed Cuc Ban Quyen Tac Gia (The Copyright Office of VietNam).
Here is the link to the activities of the former Office
On November 14th, 2014, the Ministry of Culture, Sport and Travel of VietNam officially declare The Copyright Office of VietNam is a department under the control of the Ministry of Culture, Sport and Travel of VietNam. This department has the right to
1. Help the government in controlling the Copyrights according the government policies.
2. Inform the government any policies related to supplying, cooperating, ordering and guaranteeing the Copyrights of works, performances, recordings, audios.

My Podcast
This is my first try to Podcast. It's a nice experience because I have to figure out everything by myself. Hopefully, I can finish the homework tonight.
Here is the link to my favorite Podcast on Education.
I think Podcast is also a good way for English students to improve their English. As a listening and speaking skills teacher, I can use Podcast to teach in different ways.
I will let my students improve their speaking and listening skills by using Podcast.
First, I will give them a topic for example introducing themselves on the first days of school.
Then, they will go home and make their own Podcast by recording their voice.
After that, they will listen to their friend's Podcast and take notes.
The day after, when they go to school the teacher will call students one by one to share with the whole class what they have known about their friends. From what they present, teacher can know whether they did their homework or not.

The third week in U.S
Hello everyone! I am Nguyet Nguyen (Moon). I am from Viet Nam. I am a lecturer of English at An Giang University in Long Xuyen , a small city in the South of Viet Nam. I love my job very much because every year I have many new students who are quite smart and friendly. I am not only their teacher but also their friend, their sister who they can come to take advises or share things.
Here is the link to my university, An Giang University
This year, I am very lucky to become a member of the Brunei-U.S. English Language Enrichment Project for Asian 2014. I am very grateful for all what I have learnt and got so far. I love my friends and my teachers. They are so kind and lovely. I will never forget the time by them.
The second day is a nice and experiential journey to Waikele. It is a good start when I was instructed carefully by the man in the front desk how to get there. It was a long way there but we were not lonely because there were many friends around us. I also had a fun and interesting with one of my friends. Thanks to it, I have a better understanding of the their lifestyles and culture.
The shopping outlet is a great place to go shopping and window shopping, too. We can widen our knowledge about shopping habits a living styles of people around the world (at least the ones I meet in the outlet:)).
On the way back, my Lao friend took us to China town, which was now much better than the previous times. The merchants were nice and the view was beautiful.
The worst part of the whole trip was that we had to wait for the bus for about an hour. Anyway, it was a nice and unforgettable trip.

The third day
Today, it was really an exciting day because I have learned many things that I really like before but I did not know how to make them.
First, I learned how to make a movie for myself. It's fantastic because I can now send my record to my friends and family.
- Movie Maker/ Webcam record.Second, I learn how to add some affects to my own video to make it more interesting.
- Movie maker/ Browse/ Edit to trim or split the videos.
- Movie maker/ Browse/Home to add Title/ Capture or Credit.
- Movie maker/ Browse/Home/Add Music to add music
Last but not least important is that now I can download videos from YouTube as well as convert them into mp3 files.
- Program/ DVDVideosoft/ Program/ Free YouTube to download Videos
- Program/ DVDVideosoft/ Program/ Free YouTube to MP3 Converter to download Videos and convert them into .mp3 files.
Thank you, my teacher, facilitator, my group friends for assistance and useful advices.

The forth day is a nice day but so much fun activities.
First, we learn how to make our own audio with photos of life events and how to insert words and background music into it.
- Audacity/ import photos/ next/ next /next...
Second, we are introduced some educational games which can be used in teaching. They are very good and useful.
Third, we learn how to make own our Voki.

The fifth day is awesome to me.
In the morning, we have a small activity. in the activity, the professor asks us to work in a group of 3 or 4 members from different countries. It is so great. This time, I ask for the permission to join York's group including Dolly, York (from Brunei) and Pherun (from Cambodia). They are good and kind to me. We can finish the task in the morning. Thank you, my group members so much because you all are good but you are not haughty. I am grateful for this opportunity to work with you all.
In the afternoon, we are instructed and guided carefully about the final assignment, a workshop proposal. After sometimes of discussion and negotiation, we can finally come to the agreement on what we will do for the final project. It is much better because before we leave the class, we divide the duty equally for everyone. Even though some may be more difficult than the others, I actually hope that we can cooperate well and fulfill the task effectively.
