Audacity

At first, I didn’t understand that “Audacity” means software. Because  I was just struggling how can I translate the title of  Barack Obama’s book “The Audacity of Hope”. I wonder that means boldness, courage or something. By the way, the second I tried it, I sank lower and lower in my chair as I realized how poor and thick pronunciation I was using. But it might be really useful to correct my bad pronunciation. Not to change the subject, but don’t you think the instructor wants us to ask about what should we do in English during class? I think nobody could understand what they should do only by reading what was written on the white board.              117 words

    You’re right; the telegraphic task listings on the whiteboard the other day, alone, were insufficient. That is why blended instructional environments are such a pleasure to develop and utilize. I’ve written at some length on the LTD Project Blog, in reflection on what you posted here. You may get a Pingback notification by mail, and a trackback link among the comments on this post, as well, depending upon your blog settings. Here a link, just in case you don’t.

    Oops, that last sentence in the comment I just wrote should read, “Here['s] a …,” but I can’t change it now!
