Legal Issues & Language Learning Technology | IaLLT - 1 views

  •  
    Eyes are on "the UCLa case," where a university has been sued because it undertook to provide video streams on campus without asking permission from the video rights holders. The case is not likely to be definitive but it raises important questions: What constitutes classroom use of a film? Can an institution sign away its fair use rights? Who is responsible for providing the infrastructure for streaming media distribution at an educational institution?

iPads in the Spanish Classroom! - iPads in Education - 6 views

  • The app I used was called "Sock Puppets" They first wrote out a script then recorded them using the app. Finally, we had them switch iPads and watch the other "puppet shows".

      I love the idea. But....unfortunately, how many public schools can or would fund a bunch of ipads to use in the classroom? I believe this is an expense that should be used. but, here in TX we dont even have $$ for basics! :(
    • Kathryn Kerekes
       
      We do a lot of TPRS at my school, so this would be helpful to bring the stories to life.

Next up for Google Plus Hangouts: Sign language support - Online Video News - 1 views

  • “I actually cried with joy at reading this post and finding out that Google and the Google+ team actually care about all of their user base. Thank you very much for just thinking about us.”
    • Abby Bajuniemi
       
      This really struck me because, as a hearing person, I take for granted that there might be issues for hearing-impaired people. It's so cool to me that developers are concerned about these users and are working to make their product a good one for them. This could also be relevant to those who wish to chat online with aSL "speakers" when they are trying to learn aSL!

Media in teaching - 1 views

  • The AdvAntAges of MediA for Students: PopulAr mediA (films, music, YouTube) Are A fAmiliAr medium to students thAt helps gAin Attention And mAintAin student interest in the theories And concepts under discussion. Students cAn see the theories And concepts in Action. In more thAn A figurAtive sense, theories And concepts leAp from the screen. Students cAn hone their AnAlyticAl skills by AnAlyzing mediA using the theories And concepts they Are studying. The use of mediA in the clAssroom enAbles students to see concepts And new exAmples when they Are wAtching television, listening to music, or Are At the movies with friends. Students cAn experience worlds beyond their own, especiAlly if the mediA is shArply different from their locAl environment.
  • Using media requires a complete understanding of copyright law, an appreciation of the workload involved, and some skill in recognizing content that will enhance learning, instead of becoming a distraction.
  •  
    Media can be used in almost any discipline to enhance learning, both in class, and also for out-of-class assignments. Short film and television clips, written articles, and blog postings can be viewed to reinforce concepts and spark discussion. Songs and music videos, especially when the lyrics are made available, can be used to the same effect.
