Hi there! I have just returned from OUR EMOTIONS Forum with a great impression. This now seems to be a good online telecommunication project that is part of our Group's Book of Psychology (GBP). Please, continue your discussions in the forum.
Max, will you please add the link to this Forum on the starting page of the GBP. Please, continue your discussions in the forum.
Max, we need a seperate section in the GBP for annotated external links to a few best and most comprehensive or motivating Internet sites on Psychology - let's say two annotated links per person in one week for this project is enough.
Another addition - a seperate video section in GBP - one really good and informative video per person on Psychology (form YouTube for example). Let's say like the one on FEAR that we had about a year ago, do you remember? Two weeks for searching and adding the links.
A little bit later we will add videos on Body Language.

Dear Max and Alexei! I have added two pictures to the Book of Pscyhology in order for all of you to brainstorm vocabulary items, logical associations and semantic ties. I think I will be better to put it as a separate section in this project. It could be called - Vocabulary of Feelings and Emotions. Please do it.

Hello Everybody! Guys, just look through the home reading section! There are a lot of empty sections for Hemingway's stories. I am adding to your duties - you ought to write a review of any other story we read last week. The size of your review should be about 250-300 words. In it mention a few things that are common to the other stories and that seem to be part of the author's artisitc system.

Hi, guys! I am glas that you've lauched the new project on practical psychology. I feel I like the title "Group's Book of Psychology".
I see it as my task to supply you with ideas, perspectives, and insights into everyday psychological reality of life. But it is going to be your online book of epxerience with different focuses - everyday life, university experience, communication with adults, youngsters and the like. The chapters in your online book are your own decisions and opinions. Let's say the project has started and will last until the end of the simester.

Dear Max, I still think we must do everything we can to improve the main page. Think what we can do to make a better design. I understand that we have very few options but still let's do something. I also think that the main text in the About Us section should be given on the main page. However, I leave this for you to decide. Try to experiment. I will be checking it every day.

Dear Students! I know that you have been waiting for the winter vacations long and would like to do all kinds of leasure activities. But since you are all under my constant patronage, I would still insist that you all spend enough time practising English. So, these are your tasks:
1. Record audio files of all your entries in the Articles section. One a day is a good way of practising your pronunciation.
2. Write a least one entry in your blogs.
3. Participate in the FORUM discussions every day.

Hey there! I hope that you will pass your next exam well. Concentrate and do all your best. The exam is not difficult. Ms Antonovskaya is a strict just teacher. Anoth thing - I want you all to work daily on the site. If you want to be real professionals, this venue is just another chance to express yourself.
Max, I think it's time we had a Links and Resources section in the site menu. Will you start it please and will think of the categories, OK?
Everyone! Please, look through the Teacher's Secret regularly for my new postings with taksk and ideas!
During this month I still want you all to post more photos of the city and city events like we agreed some time ago.

Hello Everyone! Happy New Year and Merry Christmas!
Guys! Have you all disappeared to the snow covered wildreness to ski? Many of you ought to write more on the site. What about your audio files? Where are they? I hope that you will be more active and come to the exam without any 'virtual debts'. Alexei, your participation is rather low! Please, talk more on the site.

Hello, everyone! I have inserted a table into the Our Team page. When you edit or post, follow the table columns and rows. I think it looks better. Please, think positively and add more. What a nice New Year Present for all of us. Guys, insert my photo as well.

- So, Let's have it online by the end of December.
- Use these thoughts for your New Year party activities, for example inviting your guests to draw something or write a few lines on a poster that you will keep until the next 2011 New Year.
- Believe me it will work and will be a contribution to Your Bank of Fond Memories of Life

Hi All! I've got a nice idea.
Part 1:
- Since our website has crossed the boarders of the group and is used by many others, I think we ought to make a few additons to the ABOUT US section.
- Let's post our individual photos on the page with a short character sketch of each person.
- But let's do it in the following way.
- Person A uploads a photo of person B and everyone, except the person in the photo, writes a sentence or two (nore more) about this person.
- We will have a character portrait accompanied by a text of about 10-20 senteces.
- When you do it, remember to single out one's best qualities.
- Critical views are accepted in the form of mild advice and friendly support.

Hi, everyone! Since our site is drawing in more participants, I think we should discuss some possible activities that they can take up on the site. ANother thing: we are continuing our photo project and more photos with your descriptions to them will add up to our Positive Collection. I understand that our site is also used by some foreign users, so why not put more photos of our city. Read entry 15 on this page to remember the details - Buildings, beauty spots, etc.

Dear Max, I think we need to put a brief version of the project presentation in the NEWS section. Just write a few lines about what it was, your hopes, plans and actions. A few words of the reaction of the committee will also be nice.
