trying to have a conversation with someone you have never met, over a low quality video connection, in a language you don’t speak very well, is quite challenging socially as well as linguistically.

  This is the most interesting point in the article. Even when speaking with another native English speaker on Skype or Google Hangouts, it can be hard to negotiate turn taking.

Anyone who has used video chat for business purposes knows just how difficult it is to execute turn-taking, interrupting, and politeness.

An unlimited number of users can contribute to a padlet at the same time, making collaborative work very easy.

  I wonder what a good group size would be for most Padlet activities? If it's sort of a social media feed like the one I created for class, I suppose it could be everyone. If it's creating a digital poster, groups of three might work well.

  This really does make things easier. My students had trouble remembering passwords to things this summer, so it's great when there is no login required.

adding example sentences to a shared class padlet

  I don't quite understand this use of Padlet. Why not just use Google Docs? I think Padlet is useful because it allows students to include multimedia.

  I would add that another benefit is how sleek it can look. It's amazing how much design can make a difference in educational activities.

  It seems that Padlet has a Power-Point/Prezi-like option for creating presentations. I'll have to look more into that.

Research suggests that students perform tasks where concentration is required, better with music playing in the background.

  I'm guessing that it should be instrumental. Classical or jazz?

  Jazz chants, jazz chants. I feel like these get mentioned all the time, yet I know no teacher who has ever used them...

Students make a doodle video.  It’s easy to do and read about it here.  Students each make a picture for one line of a song. Put them together and then make a movie.

Carolyn Graham’s “Jazz Chants” are perfect for any class, young or old. The repetition, rhythm and simplicity of them make any lesson very effective.

Some in the song, some not. Students copy, listen, circle the vocabulary they hear.

This blog has good resources - some related to tech and some not. I like that the author links to a lot of activity and lesson plans - it's good to have models.
