There are online communities everywhere just waiting to be blasted with your callout for a sister classroom.

    A very recent article, published August 2016. from Vanderbilt University website. This paper praises on the idea of the benefits of the flipping classroom across disciplines (humanities, economics, sciences, etc.) This article can lead to think beyond those disciplines and to deepen into the already going research on this subject applied to World Languages.

      I love this idea of an interactive bulletin board! Plus, this could be used as an interpretive activity w/o bulletin board: students describes someone/thing and listener has to decide who/what it is and draw or identify what is said. These recordings could be used over several classes/years.

Error correction and repair moves in synchronous learning activities | International Jo... - 2 views

  • This study explores the deployment of correction strategies and repair moves in synchronous learning activities in an online English course.
    • barichetti
       
      This article looks at the question from a more theoretical standpoint.
  • When asked to identify the benefits of the synchronous learning activities concerning the correction of errors, the participants point out that events and actions are unpredictable in the online lessons and the online interviews, which provide students with an opportunity to stretch their command of the language.
  • The results from the present study show that the preferred correction strategies are explicit corrections and recast.

      Yes- the way it happens in the real world!

    I appreciate the data around this-- Will be helpful with my student/ family communications about the 'how, why and when' of corrections.

  • All it takes is a QR reading app on a smartphone to quickly and instantly hear the student’s voice.
  • On Wheel Decide, teachers can type in the words that they want displayed on the wheel and on each click the wheel spins and lands on a random color.

    Instagram is something I haven't looked at at all - it would be interesting to see how / if others use it for school
  •  
    This has multiple ideas --many of which we have already seen!
  •  
    It is a great summary for technology tools. Some of them we have already started in class, and some of them I will definitely explore in the future!

  • VoiceThread is a ridiculously simple online program that allows students to comment on authentic materials, whether they be pictures, documents, web pages, or video. Students can provide written feedback to the material presented along with oral feedback via their computer mics, web cams, or cellular phones.

      Voice Thread is very simple and fun to use it and students can work with authentic material. It is very good to practice listening comprehension and speaking.
  •  
    I have always looked at and wondered about using VoiceThread but have never actually done it until I took this class. I'm happy that I finally used it and I'm thrilled to see all of the suggestions for World Language activities that people have shared.
  •  
    Same as Anne! I only new about VoiceThread when I started Carla17 online course. Thanks for sharing this information. We can continue learning about all the advantages of it: free, facilitates learning through authentic materials, different modalities of response: oral, written, video, doodle.
  •  
    I agree with you that Voice Thread is simple and can be used very effectively in class.

4 Synchronous Tools for Online Teaching and Learning | Top Hat - 1 views

    • pamh6832
       
      Although this article is not specifically about teaching a world language class AND it is written by someone who is promoting a product (2 strkes against the article!), it does succinctly share 4 tools to improve the synchronous aspects of a course.
    • pamh6832
       
      The activity we did with FlipGrid at the beginning of the course was similar in purpose to doing an icebreaker activity in Zoom. Even though our small group interactions were asynchronous, having those visual interactions with FlipGrid and other tools helped make me feel more connected with my coursemates.
