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.

    A digital whiteboard - for collaborative brainstorming, diagramming, infographics - what else can you think of? What would this add that you could not do with a Google doc?

Would a Course Syllabus Be Better as an Infographic? - 2 views

  •  
    At the college where I teach, professors have the unique opportunity every May to develop a course outside of their typical curriculum. Teachers get to explore their interests in new courses as diverse as "The Chemistry of Cooking" and "Writing a Film Short."
  •  
    I just found this article about redesigning the syllabus. Since my students hardly every really read the syllabus, I have to come up with something new. http://chronicle.com/blogs/profhacker/creative-approaches-to-the-syllabus/35621

    Thanks for the link from the Chronicle!

PBL in the TL: Make an Interactive Infograph Syllabus - 7 views

  •  
    Usie Piktochart to create an interactive graphic syllabus. Laura Sexton has wonderful ideas, is a genius with Tech, and is a super, enthusiastic NC teacher. I recommend her website and blogs - PBL in the TL.
  •  
    Thanks for the reference! This is really cool--not sure if our syllabus policy would allow it, but it really looks like fun and is much more attention-grabbing. I imagine, though, that it takes a while to get to the level of organization she has attained with the images and layout.

    Great activity ideas! Loved seeing the appreciative comments and shares from the French teachers in the comment loop-- Aren't we lucky to live in an age where we can share great ideas from near and far-- Encouragement for us all to add to the web of resources and share out what we are doing as well (note to self).

7 Creative Student Design Projects to Try with Canva - 8 views

  • Let’s face it: we’re humans equipped with mystifyingly powerful, sensory-driven brains. Why not inspire your class to explore how boundless its capacity to create really is?

      I like canva as a way for students to visually show what they have learned and they can add text to show their target language skills as well!
    • Marlene Johnshoy
       
      I have a colleague who brings Canva up all the time! He loves it!
  •  
    I found that Canva is a great tool to create a infographic. It sometimes took hours to find the infographic I wanted online, but now I can create the one in a way I want. I just tried to make one in Japanese:) . I would like to see other ways to use this tool.
  •  
    I really enjoyed using Canva in my project this week. It's really nice and easy to use (and I like the app for my phone). I can imagine using the poster project and the student profile project in my classroom.

Teaching world languages in the virtual classroom | SmartBrief - 5 views

  • One “choice” assignment I regularly offer students is letting them engage in a texting conversation in Spanish and send me the screenshots. This assignment seems more like fun than like work. Plus, students are able to use the language in an authentic, realistic way.

      This looks like an easy way to have learners interact outside of class.
  • Connect students with another class and set up a virtual pen pal program. (Bonus points if you can arrange this with a class in a country in which the target language is spoken.)

      I love this idea, but I'm wondering if it's feasible during the pandemic.
  • If you aim to use authentic resources in your classes and expose your students to infographics, advertisements, or news articles in the target language, Actively Learn epitomizes convenience and efficiency. This website allows teachers to embed standards-based questions within an online text. As they read, students can respond in the target language about the main idea and purpose of the text, as well as the author’s tone and opinion. Actively Learn also provides useful data for teachers, including the amount of time students spent reading. Rather than opening a series of tabs leading to different documents, students are able to read and respond all in one place.

    Nice resources. I have not heard of Actively Learning. But I have used screenomatic and Edpuzzle together. It worked well.

    Lots of good ideas. I would like to look into Actively Learning. Sounds like a great resource. Pear Deck is another one I would like to try. I agree that the virtual pen pals sounds like fun, as does having students text in Spanish and send you screenshots. They already have tons of personal experience with that already.
