Screencasting Tools: Camtasia vs. Screencast-O-Matic - Instructional Technology Blog | ... - 2 views

    • ghoedu
       
      Whenever I ask my students to use a new web app I go record myself signing in and doing an example.
  • Recording your computer screens into a digital video (screencasting) for class tutorials can come in handy when flipping the classroom.  You can record yourself using an online tool, reciting a presentation, or guide students through a website.  You can even record streaming video online – though you will still have to follow copyright rules when recording online video.  This post will compare two popular screencasting tools: Camtasia (which cost money) and Screencast-O-Matic (free).

EduCanon - Freetech4teachers - 0 views

  • Using eduCanon, like other services similar to it, could be a good way to build introductory and review lessons for students. The option to track your students' progress is nice for anticipating the questions your students might bring to class and for seeing what you might need to review in-person with your students.

      This allows a more personalized face to face review of the flipped lesson, allowing more class-time for actual practice of the lesson.

Flipping my Spanish Classroom: Beginning of the Year Assessments with Google Forms - 9 views

  • I loved that the Google Form gathered all of the responses together so I could look at student answers all together to see if their answers were a pattern of things that none of them learned, or if it was just a few students that needed review.

      I like this idea for pre-assessments and I wonder how it would work for the actual assessments too. Has anyone tried google forms for testing?
    • smuske
       
      I have used it for formative tests that go in the "participation" category. I like being able to look at the results immediately so I can give the class immediate feedback.
  • I am armed with some knowledge of the classes overall abilities as well as some individual struggles so I can help specific students one-on-one. I have adjusted some of my review activities to better focus on what students need to work on.

      I've done intakes at the beginning of the year at the adv. level to see why they chose the elective and what they hope to learn, but this seems like a great way to assess 'summer attrition' at the lower levels. On it!
    • afarachnps
       
      Agreed. Last year, I asked students to use post it notes on a drawn scale that I put on the wall, to represent how much Spanish they felt they knew. A Google quiz would be a great way of doing a follow-up to this activity. Moreover, I could think of a concluding self-assessment: now that you have a better sense of how much Spanish you know, what goals can you think of for this year? I wonder if I can also use Google for a goals activity, too?

      I do the same:-)

    Very interesting article. As a language teacher myself, I really can relate!

    I will try this on the second day of school which is coming up soon.

    @effeinstein Yes, all of my vocabulary quizzes are on Google Forms and I use GF extensively for gathering reflections pre-post units, post field trips, in general, anytime I need to gather data from students about what we are working on-- Sometimes I collect their emails, other times anonymous, if I feel that I might gather more frank feedback that way-- The spreadsheet of data is nice to look over when considering how well something went, or to make tweaks for the next iteration of work. I can also pull quotes for presentations to faculty and families, or in writing narrative reports-- Also makes grading quick and easy-- Sometimes I print out the quizzes for quick one on one feedback for students--
  •  
    It is also a great tool for getting feedback from the students.

VoiceThread - About - Digital Library - 2 views

  • Interactive tutorials made with VoiceThread ask students to practice what they learn outside of class, so the instructor can observe their practice, respond with feedback, or modify classroom teaching to address students' needs.

      This is a good example activity that I can adapt to use VT in a flipped classroom. I have started to see lots of potential in this tool.
  • Using a bilingual dictionary correctly is an important skill for nearly all language students, and this tutorial aims to help students understand how to use a dictionary well.

      This is a good idea!

(28) 5 Strategies for Using Flipgrid in the Language Learning Classroom | LinkedIn - 6 views

  •  
    Since others posted tutorials, I chose an article from a teacher who shares its value.
  •  
    I really like this instructor's take on communication in the classroom, and how to use FlipGrid to foster it.
  •  
    I loved the story of Connie who was nervous to speak in class but felt comfortable and excelled in flipgrid! Her picture was Sully from Monsters inc which gave me the idea of having students use dolls or stuffed animals to present stories on flip grid in the voice of that character.

Computer Assisted Language Learning Social Networks: What Are They Talking about? - 9 views

  • Furthermore, it has been shown that students prefer to contact their peer students rather than their tutor when they are struggling with coursework, facing difficulties in assessing facilities and understanding lectures

      Validates the "three, then me" concept that asks students to ask three other students for help before asking the teacher. Students are perhaps more available asynchronously than the teacher as well, when students need help

  • Researchers also noted that people who interact more in an online course tend to achieve higher marks on exams, as opposed to lurking which is not as successful [12]

      want to encourage participation with some sort of graded activity
    • norikofujiokaito
       
      I suspect that students' achievement was assessed in online format; that is why students who interacted more could achieve higher marks.
  • Students who are required to collaboratively work online need to dedicate time to get to know each other and therefore are able to accomplish effective communication in an online environment [29]

  • This outcome tells us that the students seem to be more excited, talkative and social with one another, as well as chat/contribute more at the start of the course, but their overall participation rates were on a decrease during the duration of the course.
    • smuske
       
      Is this a concern? Perhaps, having spent time at the beginning building trust, they are simply becoming more efficient.
    • smuske
       
      Or perhaps they're bored with this way of learning?

    I offer a course in my school called Computer Mediated Language Learning. But this article gives a new perspective of what computer assisted can be.
  •  
    Nice data to back up our use of all of these great online resources-- Thanks for sharing!
  •  
    Active participation in discussions is a key to success. If you use a flipped classroom, providing useful vocabulary and sentence structures they might want to use to talk about a particular topic also helps the students participate more in discussions.

    " 'The basis of a task-based approach'"

    After reading how much material I could flip and have students do outside of class, I thought it would be good to start looking for more templates for meaning bearing and higher order thinking tasks that could be done in the classroom. Here is some really good stuff Jane Willis.

Let's Be GridPals - 1 views

  •  
    I really like this concept!! Unfortunately we are not allowed to use flip-grid:(
  •  
    Is it not available because of access (too much? you can set up so only students with your district's email can respond), or is it because of the possibility of kids using other kid's videos and images?
