      I love this site! It presents reading material at three levels: beginner, intermediate and advanced Spanish readers. After you make your selection, you are brought to a page offering pre-reading activities, the story in text form, and post-reading activities. Students can't help but learn from this site. A balanced blend of grammar, vocabulary, culture and history makes this site interesting and engaging. A pop-up dictionary enables students to understand new vocabulary in context. Awesome!

The Technology Source Archives - Ten Ways Online Education Matches, or Surpasses, Face-to-Face Learning - 1 views

  • Students are empowered to learn on their own and even to teach one another. Particularly in the discussion group mode, students have the opportunity to explain, share, comment upon, critique, and develop course materials among themselves in a manner rarely seen in the F2F classroom.
  • ar more writing-intensive than traditional classes
  • When an instructor posts a question on the asynchronous discussion board, every student in the class is expected to respond, respond intelligently, and respond several times.

  • relative "anonymity" of online discussions helps create a level playing field for women, homosexuals, students with physical handicaps, and members of other potentially marginalized groups, as they can participate in class activities without being stigmatized. Moreover, the format gives non-native speakers of English extra time to contemplate questions and compose appropriate answers.
  • teach students to find and learn information on their own or in concert with their colleagues. The online environment fosters self-motivated education.
  • Online students, however, can and do e-mail countless questions to their professors and frequently engage in a dialogue that would be hard to duplicate in the F2F world.
  • Students with family or work responsibilities are often unable to commit to a traditional course because they cannot be in the same place at the same time for 15 consecutive weeks.
  • teaching styles do not work in the online environment (just as some students have discovered that their learning styles make online courses unworkable for them)

      new technology, like Eluminate, allows teachers to conduct office hours in a virtual environment. Participants can talk to each other, share desktop, share the same browsing experience, chat, draw charts. Fantastic.

      Hover over the keyboard to get a list of fuges by J.S. Bach. Click on one and an excerpt from that fugue will play. Move over to play movie and a new screen will come up. The entire fugue will play while scrolling through the music. A listening analysis map will also show and will move while the piece is playing.

      Click on each of the titles to read a description of what each is: prelude, clavier, fugue, well-tempered, symbol, history.

My New Adventure in Online Teaching - 1 views

  • I also was reminded that in many cases, our students technical skills often far surpass our own and that our course development and approach to online teaching should be informed by that fact. 
    • alexandra m. pickett
       
      how do you come to this conclusion? is it supported in the SLN demographic data? are you sure this it true? do you buy into the digital native vs. immigrant assertion?
  • I already recognize that this will require me to sacrifice spontaneity and creativity at times but I think on balance it is the right way to go.
  • online teaching requires me to do something I hate - completely rethink my approach. 
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • theory is easy and practical application is a lot of blood, sweat, and tears. 
  • I’ve constantly considered and reconsidered the importance of my role as the teacher as I’ve laid out Module after Module.
  • I am still not entirely sold on the need to have the entire course completed ahead of time – though who am I to argue with the experts? 
    • alexandra m. pickett
       
      hey bill. our research findings support this assertion and i want you to know that there is a positive and significant correlation between the percentage of course completed prior to the first day of the course and student (and faculty) satisfation and reported learning. Seems like building the airplane whilst in flight is not a good idea - the faculty experience is negatively impacted and the students also notice...
  • In other words, modifications can be done in a controlled setting. 
  • My emotions ran the spectrum from a little bit of anger at being asked to complete a task that I didn’t entirely think was realistic, to disappointment in myself that, even though I thought I had caught up, I obviously was still just treading water.  I’ve settled somewhere in the middle but regardless I decided to just put and shut up and make my way through the remainder of the course development process.
  • what I will take away from it is so much more than any all-nighter I might have put in.  I now feel confident to teach my own online courses and hope to begin implementing a hybrid online program in the 2010-2011 school year.   This class has given me that kind of confidence and I’m all the better for it.

      This is a great feature for students to hear authentic Spanish speakers.
    • Barbara Recchio-Demmin
       
      Here is a comment to my comment. We Spanish teachers who are not of Spanish-speaking origins often carry an accent with us no matter how hard we try to erase it. This is one reason why it is so important to expose our students to authentic materials in order to help them learn proper pronunciation.

      Learning about Spanish in context is one of the foundations for increased interest in language learning. The relevance of learning nouns and verbs becomes clear once students understand the people and culture associated with the target language
