Larry Ferlazzo's Websites of the Day… | …For Teaching ELL, ESL, & EFL - 4 views

  •  
    I have used Larry Ferazzo's website in the past and have found it has awesome resources and ideas!  When I was glancing over it today, I found the video "Word Crimes" by Weird Al Yankovic.  I think students would like watching this video about grammar made to a popular tune :)

    I agree. I have been following on Larry Ferazzo's website since last week. I already found several useful and interesting tools to use for my students.

The Right Way to Show Movies in Class | Creating Lifelong Learners - 6 views

  •  Ask students to evaluate the movie.

      I think this is an important metacognitive moment that gets students to think about themselves as learners. It also goes along with teaching media literacy.
  •  Show curricular movies at the beginning of units and not at the end.  This gives students background information that they need to understand a unit before teaching that unit.

      Interestingly, I haven't shown really any movies in my class. I think I could definitely start to use them effectively by incorporating them into a preview activity as we begin a unit.  This provides context for all the vocabulary words my ESL students are going to be learning.

      I like using movies with my students, but I don't have enough time for that.

Education World: Social Media in the Classroom? - 5 views

  • “Schools are scared about this stuff,” said Elliot Soloway, Arthur F. Thurnau Professor at the University of Michigan. “Whatever they do, [schools fear that] parents will be upset, money will be inappropriately spent, they will draw the ire of the public. They're scared of all of this, so there is an extra layer of conservatism to protect the kids. But we can’t let it paralyze us from taking steps into the new.”

      I definitely think my collaboration with teachers as an ESL teacher will be key to getting more technology involved in the classroom.

    Yes, I agree, we can't just immediately dismiss social media in the classroom because of safety issues. We have to learn ways to work with them.

Purposes - CALL Principles and Practices - 0 views

  •  
    From the book: "Since the first version of this book came out in 2005, the field of computer-assisted language learning (CALL) has grown and changed. This update is the result of some of those changes. Our intent is to place pedagogical goals before technologies, as the literature advises but is not always followed in classrooms. In revising this book, as in the original, we assume that good teachers teach well because they bear in mind certain principles about how they can best help learners to learn language. Placing these principles at the center of attention makes it much easier for teachers to concentrate on the question of what constitutes effective computer-enhanced pedagogy and why. This book takes as its organizing principles both the system of conditions that are known to support effective language learning and the goals that a variety of standards in the field have set out for us and our students. Examples throughout the book underscore the need to consider theory in every aspect of the teaching and learning process. Some of the points in this book we have made in other places; other we discovered during the revision process. All told, this text provides a brief picture of what CALL classrooms can be like today. Of course, that could change tomorrow."
