    The website says "Set up a voicemail widget on your website or add the voicemail application to your Facebook page" - Like the AudioDropbox, but sends it to your email?

    "the easiest way to communicate and work in groups" - might be good for classes? - communicate via group email, text, and voice messages - host web meetings, conference calls, chatrooms - keep shared calendar - store and edit files in one common folder -poll group in real-time - keep track of group's task, resources

      I couldn't locate this service in a search; I suppose it went defunct?

      Check this out--appears to be a comprehensive site about the use of technology for educators and students.
  • Different platforms suit different sorts of interactions and appeal tostudents and educators in a diverse manner
  • From the Edmodo platform, two main features are utilized. First, the Edmodo forum is used for both teacher-to-student communication and student-to -student communication. The communication topics include subjects such as assignments, questions, announcements, etc. Second, the Edmodo Assignment Center is used for testing the students on each learning topic and easily collecting their answers

      Although we have an in-house LMS at Northwest, I created an Edmodo platform for my Intermediate Russian I course for the fall to see how it will work. I'll use it in conjunction with the in-house LMS, which may prove to be cumbersome. We'll see.
  • As far as the assessment of students’ performance goes, the conventional assessment through graded assignments is backed up by students’ social learning activities.

A survey was carried out with 300 undergraduate students at Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM), Penang.

    Some colleagues, Eliot Borenstein (Professor of Russian @ NYU) and Shannon Spasova (Assistant Professor of Russian @ Michigan State), started this FB group in the spring and it has been an invaluable forum for me to connect with instructors around the country throughout the spring emergency remote instruction and into planning for fall. It also provides some comic relief.

    A great tool for downloading youtube and other videos that you want to use from year to year, or if you don't want to stream a video during class. Just paste the youtube link into the box, and choose your file format such as .mp4.

  • While Linda Yollis has a fantastic classroom blog, her 366 Project is incredible. She has clear instructions for how students from around the world can submit their photos to be shared. These photos make great writing prompts, conversation starters, and can spur on so many ideas in the classroom.

    This is an interesting collection (from 2009-but still) of articles/ book chapters around social networking. The author reads the various projectors as communities of practice. Not all articles deal with language acquisition, but are still interesting. One of them delves into why and how students use Facebook. One of them looks at virtual learning communities in the US and Australia vs. Europe. Good spring board to look at some of our topics more.

  • Wellington Espinosa on 01 Aug 12
     
    Photobucket is the most important site on the Internet that hardly anybody understands. Unpretentiously, it has built an essential service that didn't need to shout out for attention, the way MySpace, YouTube, Facebook, Flickr, or other related sites have. Yet it's built an audience of 38 million members, a figure now growing more than 80,000 per day.
