16 Ways to Motivate Students in the Classroom Using Adobe Spark | Adobe Spark - 3 views

  • Narrative prompts: Similar to the prior ideas, but pick images with an action occurring, and have the student record a single sentence describing what is happening.

      This could be a neat way to assess language progress, have students narrate images.

Creating more interpretive listening exercises - Maris Hawkins - 6 views

  •  I think it is important to give students specific tasks while they are working on a listening activity.  
  •  I know that my kids love watching movies, and this is a topic that they can relate to.
    • Anne Dixon
       
      I like how the links are included here so a teacher would find this activity "ready to use". 
  •  
    I agree with the idea about assigning specific tasks for listening activities. There is nothing more confusing than not knowing what to do when listening to an audio in another language. What do you think would be best, to watch the entire movie in the classroom, watch some parts of it or watch all of it each o the students in their houses?
  •  
    I have struggled pedagogically about showing moves in class. I think that I need to thoughtfully incorporate them because the students enjoy them. I wonder if showing the whole movie, but in parts, depending on the movie, might be the way to go - I always feel that there is so much pressure to get through 'X' amount of curriculum. This has given me food for thought about how I could use them.

Infografías en castellano - Infografías interesantes en español (Alfredo Vela) - 6 views

    • Anne Dixon
       
      I love using infographics, especially with beginning levels of language learners. There are so many visual aids to help increase comprehension that most students feel a sense of accomplishment when reading the infographics.  This site has a ton of them in  Spanish.  #carltech17GroupA

      Thanks for sharing, Anne. I have not used Infographics in class, and I think my students would enjoy working with them.

      I agree - infographs are a great resource. I've considered having students even create some to share on a given topic - a work in progress!
  •  
    Hi Anne! I also like to use infographics with my students even for me. I learn much better when I see images and graphics. I guess I am a visual learner and I always present content through images and charts of information.

Build a Collaborative Classroom with Microsoft Teams | Cult of Pedagogy - 10 views

    • jmgabbard
       
      I'm still learning about all of the features of MS Teams, but this one surprised me. I can imagine it being a good tool for synchronous and asynchronous language learning - not just video conferencing.
  • App Integrations I love this feature: When you need to take things up a notch, you can use some of the most popular apps in education right inside the Teams environment, including Kahoot!, Nearpod, Quizlet, and Flipgrid. If a particular app will be used frequently by a group, you can add a designated tab to a channel just for that app, so users can get to it quickly.
  •  
    I agree that app integrations is the best feature. We are using Canvas for our classes at my institution but we are also using Teams for university wide communication. Both are new but the experience so far has been positive. I may follow up on the advise to start a small project on Teams to learn more about its best features in building a collaborative classroom. Thanks for sharing!
  •  
    Thanks for posting this, Jordan, and reminding me that here at UofL we've got MS Teams as an additional resource! I've just check to see if there's the possibility of integration with Blackboard and it appears there is. (I'm glad to have the option for synchronous class meetings, since I've always found Blackboard Collaborate to be a little baroque in its layout....)
  •  
    Thanks for the tip @greghutcheson ! It hadn't occurred to me to look for Teams/Blackboard compatibility. I'm not sure yet if I prefer Teams over Blackboard Collaborate, but if one runs more smoothly than the other, that would be my pick!

9 Ways Online Teaching Should be Different from Face-to-Face | Cult of Pedagogy - 0 views

  •  
    I thought this episode of the 'Cult of Pedagogy' podcast provided a thorough, relatable and succinct description of differences you need to take into account when planning an online course. It was informative, but also comforting. It didn't just talk about all of the things that you MUST DO to be a good teacher online. It also discussed the social needs of teachers and students in this environment.
