    • norikofujiokaito
       
      Some of my students use LINE (similar to WhatsApp) to talk with their conversation partners in Japan to practice Japanese and learn about Japanese culture. Mobile phones play a great role in foreign language courses now.
  • WhatsApp in your classroom with the purpose of improving students’ oral skills.

Accelerating English and Math on the Go - Language Magazine - 3 views

  • In addition to taking classes, she supplements her education by using Learning Upgrade, a smartphone app with English and math lessons for adults.
  • Along with our face-to-face instruction and tutoring, we offer an additional resource to our adult students: educational software via mobile technology.
  • This access to educational software allows those with limited scheduled availability, or those who do not yet have an assigned tutor, to learn at their own pace and on their own time.

  • In addition to taking classes, she supplements her education by using Learning Upgrade, a smartphone app with English and math lessons for adults.
  • The app’s 300 lessons are designed by educators and use songs, videos, and games to engage even the most reluctant of students. Every level provides practice problems, accompanied by immediate intervention and remediation with multimedia supports.
  • I use the app when I have a little bit of time, anywhere. Sometimes I’m in the laundry, waiting between washing and drying.”

      This is one advantage of technology: anywhere, anytime!
  • Both generations are equally willing to help one another bridge the gap, which in turn boosts the effectiveness of both approaches.
  • So far, the use of smartphones by students at Midland Need to Read has accelerated the learning process, giving students the motivation needed to improve their English language
  •  
    In my district, we are always being asked to connect our language teaching to other disciplines. Using Smartphone to do so is smart. However, not all of my students have these devices. They can definitely share a device. I like how this article is geared toward adult learners who can't or don't have time to attend physical classes. The App allows them to access this knowledge anywhere anytime. Thanks Akiko.

    Amy, I knew about Nero, and just "met" audacity :) The same as you and Krista, never imagined how many more are there.

    Thanks Amy, I also have used Audacity, but just to have students record their answers to an oral test. Now I've learned about other uses and other tools. Great!

The Backchannel: Giving Every Student a Voice in the Blended Mobile Classroom | Edutopia - 4 views

    • sarahlbassett
       
      A backchannel could be a really useful adaptation for SPED and EL students in mainstream classes who find themselves left behind in conversation
    • moramichal
       
      just used SLAck in my workshop - it was a great experiment
  • They create a blended environment where teachers and students engage in both physical and online conversations so that learning is no longer confined to a single means of communication or even an arbitrary class perio
    • sarahlbassett
       
      This solves the "I don't have enough time with my students during class" problem if students have access to conversations beyond the limits of a class period

  • A face-to-face conversation while simultaneously reading might have been a distraction. However, by typing their thoughts, all students contributed their ideas while each having the autonomy to work at his or her own pace.
    • sarahlbassett
       
      I especially like having an outlet for students to work at their own pace on something while still contributing to a conversation
  • conversations were never los
    • sarahlbassett
       
      "The conversations were never lost" - this is a great point!  Students could read and re-read past conversations.  With a traditional speaking/listening conversation, it isn't possible to read at all, let alone re-read.

  • Charlie needed an alternative means to participate, and a backchannel would have provided him with that outlet.
  • a digital conversation that runs concurrently with a face-to-face activit
  • TodaysMeet would have let teachers create private chat rooms so that students could ask questions or leave comments during class. A Padlet wall might have fueled students to share their ideas as text, images, videos, and links posted to a digital bulletin board. The open response questions available in a student response system like Socrative or InfuseLearning could have become discussion prompts to give each student an opportunity to share his or her ideas before engaging in class discussion.

Media Examples for the Classroom - TEACHING MEDIA - 1 views

  • Some of the most productive parts of the class were the weekly take-home assignments that asked the students to post comments on their social networking sites while using connected viewing technology
  • While the students learned a lot from the class assignments, they were initially anxious about letting an instructor into their social network. I felt it was necessary to preserve the anonymity of the students for the study so I wanted to keep their comments about the connected viewing private.
  • Unfortunately, the only way to ensure this anonymity was to create a “secret” Facebook group. “Secret” Facebook groups are one of three categories of groups that allow members of the social network to collaborate on a project. Though this setting allows all posts and members to remain confidential it also required me, as the creator of the “secret” Facebook group, to “friend” all of my students so that I could then add them to the group.

  •   “Friending” the students raised some privacy concerns for me and for my students. Suddenly, we could see the everyday things that we were posting to Facebook. According to a survey conducted by Tammy Swenson Lepper, students are uncomfortable with authority figures making judgments about them based on their “private” Facebook communications, regardless of the pubic availability of this information (183-184)
    • Hasmik Tovmasyan
       
      I thought to create a group you do not need to friend the members, do you?
    • Hasmik Tovmasyan
       
      Here comes the factor of the Net generation and their "comfort zone"
  • Facebook and Twitter are easier to manage on mobile devices and are familiar interfaces.
    • Hasmik Tovmasyan
       
      very good point
    • Amy Uribe
       
      I agree!
  • This makes the class more student-centered and gives those struggling to follow lectures and readings an additional platform to work through course concepts.

      This just re-emphasizes what we were talking about the first couple weeks of class.

    One of the applications I tried out was Socrative.  It can best be described as online clickers.  Here is an article that describes it more in detail.  Since I teach at college and EVERYONE has cellphones, it is very easy (and fun) for students to use.  And teachers get immediate feedback!

Audio QR Codes - 1 views

  • magine students’ artwork hanging in your school’s hallway and beside each masterpiece is a QR code. When parents, students, and other teachers scan the code using a mobile device, they hear the student telling about themselves and the relevance of their art... Or what about a QR code in the back of a library book that allows you to hear a student’s review of the book? Or a QR code sent home to parents that allows them to listen to their 1st grader reading or telling a story?
    • Adrienne Gonzales
       
      I think these are awesome ideas! I can see a lot of potential for using this in L2 teaching/learning activities.
  •  
    This is a quick tutorial for embedding audio into QR codes. it provides a couple examples of how this might be used in an educational setting.

    Adrianne, I like your link a lot. QR is a great helper. I have used it last year and make easy to my students to get faster to pages I wanted them to go.
