JOLT - Journal of Online Learning and Teaching - 0 views

  •  
    The K-12 educators in this study engaged in true dialogue, where evidence of actual conversation occurred in Twitter over 61% of the time. Additionally, over 82% of the time, the educators in this study chose to follow other educators or content experts related to their field of teaching so they were able to create a personal learning network meaningful to their professional needs.

28 Creative Ways Teachers Are Using Twitter | Best Colleges Online - 1 views

    • Roxana Sandu
       
      I almost feel overwhelmed with all this information of how to use Twitter for educational purposes. Some of the ideas are great and they look fun, definitely aiding to the traditional ways of teaching. What caught my attention at this list of creative ways teachers use Twitter is creating a TWIBE - have any of you heard of this before or used it? If yes, how did it work?
  • ______ of the day: No matter the class, a vocabulary word, book, song, quote or something else "of the day" might very well make an excellent supplement to the day’s lesson. When teaching younger kids, tell their parents about the Twitter feed and encourage them to talk about postings at home.
  • Supplement foreign language lessons: Twitter’s unique spacing limitations make for an interesting way to nurture foreign language acquisition. Tweet a sentence in a foreign language at the beginning of the day or class and ask students to either translate or respond in kind as a quick, relatively painless supplement.

  • Create a twibe: Build networks beyond Twitter itself and set up (or have students set up) a twibe, bringing together other classrooms or professionals. These networks not only serve to broaden one’s perspective, but offer an interesting lesson in how online communities come together, sustain themselves or fall apart.

#TAGS: New Homepage for Twitter Archiving Google Sheet - 0 views

  •  
    From this blog post: "One Twitter topic that we've addressed often is how best to maintain an archive of Tweets, whether your own or those associated with a particular hashtag. In two different posts, Mark introduced readers to what is, arguably, the best free solution for this: Martin Hawksey's TAGS, "a free Google Sheet template which lets you setup and run automated collection of search results from Twitter." Well, now Hawksey has created a user-friendly site for this tool, complete with a help section and support forums. "

Nik's Learning Technology Blog: Managing behaviour in the digital age - 4 views

    • japaxico
       
      I was expecting something totally different when I clicked on this article. Teaching at a community college, I thought it might be about online behavior on a discussion board assignment or something online and collaborative. Even though it was about something else, I found this tool to be fascinating and thought if I taught in the K-12 system, this would be a great tool.

      Ability to add photos? Cool! Would this be allowed?
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • ClassCharts uses html 5 so should run in any modern browser whether it’s a laptop, iPad or Android tablet, so the teacher can use an tablet during the class to instantly update behaviours.
  • This is quite a complex tool and creates a lot of data, so I think it’s going to take a bit of getting used to for teachers and perhaps a bit of training too.
    • japaxico
       
      For sure! How easy is this?
    • japaxico
       
      In my class, this might be a good tool to use for the Participation portion of the class grade, may create an easier way to assess the class in this area.

      I envision the teacher walking around with a tablet and making notes in this program instead of taking notes in a notebook. How far we have come!

      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.

      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.

      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!

      This is an idea that I'd like to explore.

How to use Glogster - web / desktop - 6 views

  • All too often though, presentations feel rather one-­dimensional and audiences begin to drift.
  • Not only will audiences be enraptured, but presenters will gain skills in digital literacy and creativity, as well as a lot of confidence! Glogster presentations can also be shared instantly with classmates, parents, colleagues and learners around the globe.
    • kschroed12
       
      This is mentioned in our articles that we read for this week. As stated in our articles, presenters should react to the audience. According to this information, using Glogster presentations will do just that; they will keep the audience engaged.

    I really like Glogster. I thought it was a great way to introduce oneself to an ePal at the high school level. Really fun and engaging!
  •  
    This could be really useful for study abroad reflection too!

    I tried this one at the beginning of the week, but gave up after not being able to type accent marks in Spanish. I like the idea of creating posters or "one pager" presentations.

    This is a good reference that was made as a blog for Arabic Grammar, that I use all the time when teaching Arabic.I think the group can use the same idea and create simple grammar lessons in FL, these lessons can be useful for all the teachers teaching for example French, German all over the world.

A faculty member and former ad executive offers six steps for improving teaching on Zoom (opinion) - 16 views

    very interesting article! I actually like Zoom and its features and agree with Stephen Hersh. we as teachers will need to look through another lens now and try to adapt to teaching online in a new productive way.
  •  
    Like the article - when we switched remotely, my advice for the ASL instructors is to keep it simple, to the point and encourage breakaway groups, encourage conversations using new signs, come up with short stories (movies)....most of the students enjoyed it. When the semester ended, we decided we should learn more tech tips and find other features using ZOOM. Its interesting!
  •  
    This is nice! Super helpful since many of us are Zoom users! And not to mention that we are not alone in this!
  •  
    Yes!! My main takeaway is that online class is not just a duplication of in-person class. Some things have to be done completely differently. I like the part about no lectures. One thing I know is that my fall online classes aren't going to have long lectures...
  •  
    This was really useful! I especially liked how he said he used his mini-lectures as a way to kick start group work. I do think that using Zoom, even though not ideal, can bring us to better ways of doing things with our students. I like how he posits that it forced him to talk less and have students participate more. If this is a benefit of the pandemic, then I welcome it (although all the other stuff --no!).
  •  
    This post reminded me that InsideHigherEd is a great resource for keeping tabs not only on post-secondary education policy, but also on technology. I'll absolutely be delving into their archive!
  •  
    Yes,Greg, Agreed, great resource!!! Will use often.

    Zoom! I'm pretty sure Stephen Hersch is my neighbor! Teaches at Northwestern. "Stop talking so much!" Yes. Great take away. I saw this video when I looked up to see what TEACHx is since he's involved. Started in 2016. But this linked video https://vimeo.com/249442007 is 4 Northwestern students and how they use technology. Evidently they use Canvas as well. I want to look up want one student said about his Spanish class. But what I liked is one of the students talks about when she doesn't use technology. After having said that all her life she had never used her laptop so much, but still in class the expectation is to arrive prepared and be ready to discuss. Hersch says the same for the what is one of the best uses of Zoom... time for students to discuss. Now! How to really get them all to prepare!?

Blog | Creative Language Class - 0 views

  •  
    This website was created by Kara Parker and Megan Smith, world language consultants, curriculum writers and bloggers. I was impressed by this blog's long list of topics and its topic choices, such as authentic resources, listening and reading resources, interpretive reading/listening activities, interpersonal speaking activities, distance learning, and technology. The posts that I read I found meaningful and well-written and their suggestions creative, practical and innovative.
