It reflects on how the students can now become teachers themselves, using the example and guidance of how the course was presented. It wishes the graduates luck as they start incorporating web tools into their own classes and mentions they can still seek advice from the coordinators and moderators as needed. It concludes by congratulating the graduates and saying goodbye for now.

3. Even if we are graduating today we will never forget everything you have done for us and everything we have been through together.
4. We are blessed and happy to have such a motivated and motivating; inspired and inspiring; caring and sharing; humane and truly professional team of co-ordenators and moderators who have been teaching and practising what they preach – our wonderful role models. I think it was an excellent example of using Tessa Woodward’s ‘Loop input’ where we were students, and now as teachers and trainers we need to try to use not only the content of the course-web tools, but also the way it was presented here with meticulous planning and diligent implementation, and try to be patient, supportive, helpful and professional facilitators and guides in our virtual classrooms.

However, whenever confused or lost in the cyber world, we will always come back to our parents- WaB2012 co-ordenators and moderators for advice and guidance.
