Five Ways to Use Twitter in the World Language Classroom - The FLTMAG - 7 views

  • they use their comfort and skills with social media to connect students with the content area on a deeper level.

      This is a great goal. Students will watch ridiculous Vines for hours, so how can we replace that with something that stimulates their intellect?
  • help students keep tabs on their upcoming assignments and assessments
    • nataliemcruz
       
      This seems like a lot of work, especially because my students have plan sheets - but I think I could do this for the big things :)
  • I use Twitter as a way to provide practice during the days leading to macro-assessments, by providing sample test items, as well as study tips.
  • ...7 more annotations...
  • I provide the correct answer (present indicative or infinitive) in the form of a comment on the same tweet. This gives students who follow the Twitter feed and receive notifications an opportunity to quiz themselves in real time.
  • Students who do not have a Twitter account can go to my school website and follow along with the embedded stream.

      I didn't know you could do that, glad there is a way to bypass individual accounts
    • jenniferacarr
       
      I didn't know you could do that either. I wonder if students without accounts would still be disadvantaged, though, since they wouldn't receive notifications in real time...
  • In both cases, students understand that I am paying attention and rewarding their efforts and attention to detail, and feel that their hard work is being recognized.
  • There is great power in positive reinforcement
  • I ask permission first
  • For the students who provided the work, this is a great motivator to keep the high-quality work flowing, while for the other students, it serves as an example of good work.

      I'd be careful with praise meaning, give it - but make sure all students get praised . . . even less stellar students for their small achievements
  • my view of the textbook is that it should be a resource for learning, not as a primary source
    • nataliemcruz
       
      Yes - textbook as reference book

      FLT magazine. Amazing ideas for Foreign Language Classroom. Thank you Addrianne!!
    • MariaEmicle Lopez
       
      Adrianne, I found the site with a lot of information. I particularly enjoyed "Virtual Exchanges in the Foreign Language Classroom." It explains how to make the target language more accessible to students allowing for an understanding of perspectives and practices. Good outline of benefits of virtual exchanges.

    This is a practice-oriented publication that's a bit more casual in tone and practical in content than its scholarly counterparts, while still rigorous in the quality of information it offers. We will feature articles, interviews with notable folks in the field of language teaching and learning, reviews of software, materials, and books, and more!

    A lot of great ideas and a nice way to stay informed and to, at the same time, feel connected with a network of language educators who are addressing the same challenges and concerns.
  •  
    SpatialChat looks so fun! I'll be curious about pricing, and appropriateness and safety for high schoolers.
