    This is exactly what I need!! I'm going to be remotely teaching an LCTL in the fall....

    Excellent! Thanks for sharing this, Marlene. I'm going to re-post it for our LCTL instructors. I think it will be really useful.
  •  
    Full of useful examples and websites! Will definitely try the Wheeldecide.com to make calling on students more interesting. Great discussion on keeping students engaged.

The 5 Most Surprisingly Simple German Teaching Resources Online | FluentU German Educat... - 2 views

      I'm really interested in creating an activity similar to what's described in #2. I think once I have the infrastructure worked out, it will be easy to repeat for different locations and different places of interest (restaurants, parks, whatever) in each city.

      This type of activity could also be a good first step to work up to asking for and giving directions in German.

      I find this sentence important because it drives home the point that authentic resources can serve a variety of purposes, from "hooking the students" or activating global knowledge to complex assignments resulting in student presentations, etc. It's a good reminder that, rather than searching for that one perfect piece while under pressure to plan a lesson, it's a good idea to start a digital collection of materials that strike me as interesting.
  • Think of each authentic resource you have for a theme as a puzzle piece looking for its “best
  • fit.”

CALL communities and culture - short papers from EUROCALL 2016 - Google Books - 1 views

  •  
    I don't think I can annotate this article because it is a Google book and has access limitations. I have worked with Dr. Christine Appel, one of the authors of the article "Synchronous tandem language learning in a MOOC context: A study on task design and learner performance". My main interest here is: "How can we best design online synchronous tasks to achieve the optimal outcome?". Sometimes we focus too much on the tool and not so much on how we can make the most of it. The article studies real tasks to find the effects task design have in student performance.

Checking Reading Comprehension Remotely Using Student-Designed Comics - The FLTMAG - 4 views

  • The book is an excellent summative text for the course because it brings together the historical, ideological, philosophical, and artistic viewpoints that students had engaged with throughout the semester. 
  • At first glance, this might seem like a simple assignment, but it requires higher order thinking. It required students not just to understand the story of the character in question, but also to apply this understanding by retelling the story in their own (German) words. Students did not just demonstrate reading comprehension; the assignment forced them to identify key details in the story in order to make the story fit the limited number of panels available.

    I love Makebeliefscomix. it is a much better option than when I had students draw a comic strip and take a picture of it to turn in. I will be using this one. Thanks!
  •  
    I just tried the site to see how it works. I find it user friendly, easy to navigate through.
  •  
    I like Makebeliefscomix too. It is easy to use and the students have fun creating heir message.

    My students create a graphic novel/comic using "Storyboard That" as part of their final exam/program. I love seeing their creative side while practicing their language skills!

30 creative ways to use Padlet for teachers and students - BookWidgets - 9 views

  • Let your students answer some important exit ticket questions like “what did you learn today?”, “What didn’t you understand?” or “What questions do you still have?”.It gets better…Here are some other exit ticket promts your students could answer: Write down three things you learned today. If you had to explain today’s lesson to a friend, what would you tell him/her? What question do you have about what we learned today? What part of the lesson did you find most difficult? What would you like me to go over again next lesson? Write down two questions you would put in a quiz about today’s lesson. What were the main points we covered today? Did the group activity contribute to your understanding of the topic? Why? Read this problem … What would be your first step in solving it? I used app X extensively today. Was it helpful? Why or why not?
  • Complete the storyCreate a story and ask students how it should continue. Students can post their ideas on the Padlet. Finally, take some of your students' ideas and complete the story. You’ll have some funny stories!
  • What is Padlet?
  • ...13 more annotations...
  • Padlet can be used by students and by teachers. With padlet you can create an online post-it board that you can share with any student or teacher you want. Just give them the unique Padlet link. Padlet allows you to insert ideas anonymously or with your name. It’s easy to use and very handy.
  • Whoever has the Padlet board opened on his smartphone or computer, can see what’s on it and what everyone is writing. Students just have to take a device and start adding little sticky notes online. They can see all the ideas gathered on the teacher board immediately.

      Clear description of what Padlet is and how to use it.
  • Sharing a Padlet board is easy; choose for a QR code or a link.
  • Let your students insert the link in the browser or in the Padlet app. They can ‘continue as guest’ so they just have to scan the qr code with the Padlet app or type in the URL, without creating an account. Shortly after, they will be directed to your first Padlet board.
  • How to post things on Padlet? Well, there are a few ways to do this: double click anywhere on the board; drag files in; paste from clipboard; save as bookmark with Padlet mini; or just click the ‘+’ button in the lower right corner.
  • 2. Live question bank Let your students ask questions during the lesson. It’s very handy when students don’t understand something or need a better explanation. Stop your lesson 10 minutes early and go over the questions. This way students who are afraid to ask questions can still ask their questions anonymously. It gives a voice to every student in the room, even to the shy ones.
    • pamh6832
       
      A good way to help ensure student engagement and comprehension. Similar to the "Chat" feature on Zoom.
  • 14. Prior knowledge Try to figure out what students already know about the topic you’re about to teach. What prior knowledge do your students have about that particular topic and what don’t they know? Students just post their knowledge on Padlet, so you can see how to build your lesson.

      For reviewing previous year information. Always important, but perhaps even more so after Spring 2020 and distance learning.
  • 23. Geocaching For physical exercises, students have to go walking more. Let you students do some geocaching and let them post pictures of themselves and the treasure to the Padlet board. It will encourage the others to find the treasures as well.

      I am going to try this in my language classes.
  • Complete the story Create a story and ask students how it should continue. Students can post their ideas on the Padlet. Finally, take some of your students' ideas and complete the story. You’ll have some funny stories!

New Teacher Boot Camp Week 2 - Using VoiceThread | Edutopia - 1 views

  • It is an easy way to differentiate instruction while providing engaging choices to "show" learning, engage in conversation, and think openly and critically about content.
    • leahmyott
       
      Differentiation is so important for English learners. They don't always get a chance to make their voices heard, and this way, they can do it in their own time and space.
  • the value of a Web 2.0 tool is in its ability to enhance the student's learning experience, and allows teachers to be inspired to cultivate learning in a purposeful, dynamic way.
    • leahmyott
       
      I have found that looking on examples and tutorials gives me inspiration on ways to use Voicethread. I can be purposeful and dynamic - I feel I am at the tip of the iceberg in terms of ways I could use it.
