People Search Results - language technology - 2 views

  •  
    This is a search I did, but you could use it for finding other topics you are interested - and the people who tweet about them.
  •  
    How do you choose who to follow if you haven't heard of them?
  •  
    looks a bottomless list; could have done with something a bit more organized on listorious' part

    Are you following any of these educators?

    I was trying not to follow too many people so I can keep up with everything is being posted, but even for the few chosen ones time was not on my side. I was following Larry Ferlazzo and Silvia Tolisano, but now I am going to add more from the list you shared here. Thank you Alyssa!

Twitter Tips: for Teachers & Educators | Technology Enhanced Learning Blog - 1 views

      Does anyone know anything more about applications for shortening URLs? Any use for them other than for Twitter use?
    • srafuller
       
      I've used goo.gl which is Google's URL shortener. I like it because it also generates a QR code. The code can then be printed out and used for listening practice (the project that I used it with was a recorded dialogue uploaded to YouTube).
  • automated accounts that don’t have any visible purpose, someone who has nothing in common with you
  • looking at their follower/updates list; if they are following 10,000 people, have 20 followers, and only 1 update then I’d safely say it’s an automated account and can be ignored!
  • ...7 more annotations...
  • manage your Twitter
  • pull conferences and/or training together
    • klmcguinness
       
      Pull classrooms, class periods, departments, etc. More centralized than a shared Google doc? I'm thinking yes and participants will be forced to be brief.
  • engaging your followers on their content
  • No one likes a smart-arse
  • this means you can easily collate tweets together
  • you’ll end up learning from your learners.
  •  
    Karen, I use a shortener when I have a very long URL - even to include in an email, or to advertise something I want people to go to (a survey I did) and some shorteners will let you pick your own ending so it can be something recognizable rather than random letters. I think Twitter does this automatically for you now.

Funky Character Maps | The Creative Language Class - 30 views

    • kjjsk8
       
      I thought that this was a cool graphic organizer for character traits rather than doing a traditional way of listing/t-chart/ven-diagram/etc.
    • yflanders
       
      Very creative idea, I would love to try it out with my class. Thanks for sharing.
  • Furthermore, it connects to English Arts and my unit on describing people.
    • kjjsk8
       
      This connects to my Legends and Myths unit and helps me assess content and not just language.
    • srafuller
       
      I like this idea - I'd like to try this with my Level 1 students. We have a children's version of Don Quijote that might lend itself to this. Something else to plan!

    • hharb01
       
      Ask school to supply a phone and apps installed to overcome giving your personal phone number to students.
    • norikofujiokaito
       
      Some of my students use LINE (similar to WhatsApp) to talk with their conversation partners in Japan to practice Japanese and learn about Japanese culture. Mobile phones play a great role in foreign language courses now.
  • WhatsApp in your classroom with the purpose of improving students’ oral skills.
    • hharb01
       
      Mainly for speaking and writing, can be used for both representational and interpretive modes.
  • Mobile Phone Operator they contacted offered them a cheaper phone rate than the one they had. We could say they killed two birds with one stone.

Teaching, Tech and Twitter: Ignite a Flipgrid Fire - 1 views

  • 5. GridPals! An incredible idea from Bonnie McClelland, GridPals connects classrooms across the globe creating virtual pen pals. You can take advantage of GridPals using Flipgrid One. However, if one of the GridPals teachers has Flipgrid classroom then you can become CoPilots on the same grid giving both teachers access to the educator dashboard.

      REally want to investigate this!!!
  • The beginning of the year, at parent conferences, a send-off to the next grade are all ways to get families involved in encouraging and supporting their kids.
    • vaguevara
       
      I will use this as a bridge to communication about what is happening in the classroom- Have students teach introductions to their parents, and film them doing it!!!
  • ONE of the PVLEGS expectations to focus on at a time

      This could be a way to have students construct the anticipatory set!
  • 1. Virtual vocabulary word wall When working on a unit have your students record a video describing the meaning of important vocabulary words. They can hold up a card in their selfie video with the word written on it so the words are easily accessed by other students.

Week 2 - Activity 3 - CARLA Tech Online - 1 views

  • B. Install the “Diigolet” into your browser  (Due Thursday, July 16)
    • Marlene Johnshoy
       
      Now I can add a note and save it to the group. It should show up in the Diigo group page list of posts - with a colored bar alongside the note, or a little post-it note icon.
  •  
    If you are seeing this with the Chrome Extension - I'm discovering that there is no way to share your highlights and post-it notes with the group. Go back and install the Diigolet - instructions in Week 2!

    More Ideas...

    Yikes! I thought 50 ideas was a lot. Nice that the author included some sites that help to organize the tweets. One tool I would add to the list http://wiffiti.com/. You can set up a wall to accept a hash tag that, when used in a tweet, will display almost immediately on the wall. Excellent way to display student comment via a projector.
  •  
    So many ways to use technology in the classroom! We can be creative and motivate our students to be creative as well.

    Thank you for the video. I wasn't sure exactly what a flipped classroom looked and how it worked. Very helpful!
  •  
    We have used VoiceThread, I hope we will use a few more in the coming weeks. I noticed each said Free and some had paid with an i in a gray circle(?)
  •  
    I liked this list of applications (free and pay). Out of the thirty, I was only familiar with three: "VoiceThread", "Kahoot!", and "Screen-O- Matic".

6 Media Tools for Powerful Language Teaching | General Educator Blog - 11 views

  •  65 percent of your students are visual learners, according to research
    • atsukofrederick
       
      This assures me that using visual aides helps the students learn a language and that technology can enhance the effective use of visual materials, making it easier to access to the authentic and latest videos and photos.
  • If you’re using new technology, give it a trial run. It’s hard to imagine anything less engaging for students than sitting around waiting while you try to load that video over a poor internet connection or figure out all the glitches with that awesome online game.Do your trial and error ahead of time, before you’re demonstrating media to the class.
    • smuske
       
      While I agree with this, at some point you need a test group. I always try things out first with a section that I know can take a couple of glitches in stride.
    • vallb001
       
      I wish we had enough time to trial everything in advance! Plus, the issue is something might work when you trial it but not at the right time...
  • And one of the best ways to access them is with an innovative tool called FluentU.
    • smuske
       
      I took a quick look at this once, but haven't used it. If anyone out there is using it, I'd like some tips.
    • afarachnps
       
      I haven't used it. Did you try ThinkLink for this week's activities? I wonder how different these two tools are?

    • afarachnps
       
      It seems that this feature regarding definitions is a step above ThinkLink...is this right? I would love to try this tool in conjunction with ThinkLink to see where I can get the most of what I need for my students.
  • need images, graphs, videos and charts to learn
    • cbbbcb
       
      Some of my students also need to see the words written for them to process what is taught.
  • using handheld “clickers.”
    • cbbbcb
       
      but only for MC and T/F questions, right? not for open-ended questions.
  • Mini Whiteboards:
    • cbbbcb
       
      Is there a digital mini-whiteboard?
  • Media makes content more visual.
    • tclem01
       
      develop ways for students to produce more visual feedback too
  • good old whiteboards!
    • tclem01
       
      Whiteboards, hmmm?
  •  
    I like the way this list gives tools that are both digital and physical. Thanks for sharing! Also, I'm interested to try out FluentU.

Day Five: Synchronous Learning Activities: Online Pedagogy - 2 views

  • Students collaborate with guests on projects to gain diverse expertise.
  • If a participant has a comment or question, he/she should type "!" for a comment or "?" for a question.
  • f a participant wishes to change the topic of conversation, this is signaled by typing "new?" or "new!". If no one objects by typing "!" or "?" and proceeding with the present topic
  •  
    It's good to see the list of types of "interaction". It's something I'll want to go back to to guide not just what I want students to do... but, what I want us to do TOGETHER. The "Educause" links don't work for me.
