      Does the UofM have this with their Moodle set up? Looks interesting! If this does not exist, I wonder if there are any other classroom capture technology at the UofM

The 5 Best Free Annotation Tools For Teachers - eLearning Industry - 7 views

  •  
    I like the ideas offered on this site! I have never heard of web annotation before.
  •  
    In the reading classes I teach in ESOL, we teach academic reading skills to non-native English speakers to get the students ready for college-level textbooks. These tools would be very useful for students if we ever have any digital texts we read for the class.
  •  
    I had a hard time reading from the link! Once opened there were a ton of moving pop-ups that were very distracting. Did anyone else have that issue?

Inside VIPKID, Cindy Mi, and $3 billion startup's teacher community - Business Insider - 0 views

  • But, she said, she and fellow members of the Teachers of Color group have called for VIPKid to act "proactively" by teaching the company's parent customers about diversity in America, involving teachers of color in the construction of the curriculum, featuring teachers of color in advertisements in China, and releasing a statement to the company's Chinese customers explicitly supporting teachers of color.
    • afarachnps
       
      Online tutoring like the kind offered by this company, VIPKid, from China to the US, can offer great opportunities for targeting interpersonal communication. However, perhaps due to the synchronous nature of the interactions between tutors and students, cultural and racial stereotypes can interfere in many damaging ways. Does interpersonal communication in the language classroom, real or virtual, open up students and their interlocutors to situations for which we as teachers may not always be prepared?

Technology and the future of language teaching - Kessler - 2018 - Foreign Language Anna... - 4 views

  • This article addresses the extent to which technology‐mediated social interactions dominate our daily lives, how we can leverage those interactions to the benefit of our learners, and how we can engage them in learning experiences in ways that will encourage them to practice language extensively.
    • norikofujiokaito
       
      The theme of this article is same as what we have been talking in the workshop "Using the Web for Communicative Language Learning."
  • In addition to challenging existing dichotomies (face‐to‐face vs. online courses; synchronous vs. asynchronous uses), it is also important to understand the extent to which research can inform our use of technology.
    • norikofujiokaito
       
      It is more common that hybrid format is used in foreign language classroom now.

Vocaroo - 0 views

  • Record an audio welcome message and put it on your blog (or wiki or web page.) Elementary students can practice their oral reading skills. You could even post them on your blog for parents and grandparents to hear. Each day have one student record “what we did in school today” and post it on your blog. Students in a foreign language class could record words or phrases and then email them to their teacher. Left your students with a substitute? Record a message to encourage your students to be on their best behavior!
    • afarachnps
       
      I used Vocaroo this week-- a simple app and easy to use that can fulfill a variety of needs for the classroom. I thought I could share some here with you...I am drawn to the second point about practicing and recording reading out loud. This past year with my elementary students, I found a great need to improve their understanding of sounds in Spanish, as well as building their confidence as "speakers" of the language. This gives me an opportunity to work on this issue further this upcoming year.

I've Been Using Evernote All Wrong. Here's Why It's Actually Amazing - 1 views

      because Evernote can read handwriting! so cool.
  • You can share any note in Evernote with other people—even if they aren't Evernote users! So it's actually great for this.
  • The second type of bookmark is the one I use for Evernote. It's bookmarking stuff that you want to reference later, but not the kind of stuff you visit every day. Does that make a little more sense?
  • Forgot to mention my third type of bookmark, which are full articles I send to Readability/Pocket/Instapepr for reading later. That's more for pleasure reading than reference, which is what I use Evernote for.
    • cwelton
       
      I have colleagues who use Evernote for this 'pleasure reading' feature as well.
  •  
    I used to use Evernote a while ago for a staff writer/communications job I held in grad school. It helped a great deal with keeping my boss informed on my progress on news stories and for making suggestions. After reading this, I want to go back to it. I remember how organized it made me feel-- I'm sure I could use a lot more of that as a teacher! Thanks for sharing. Glad that Evernote is back on my radar-- with so much more to it than I remember!

      I am especially interested in the intersection of L2 learning and empathy-- I think that a deeper understanding of culture--differences and commonalities, helps to form a bridge between peoples-- In learning language, we learn humility and stepping into the unknown--trying on new ways of saying things and seeing the world.

      I like that this focuses on the active role we play in learning better empathic responses - sometimes I think we act like empathy is either something we have or we don't and that we all feel the same.

    That's so funny that you just posted this...I posted a question a little bit ago about the same thing. I have heard of EPals, but have never actually used it. I wonder if it would be a lot of work for us as teachers?

    I want to say that they have been around in a number of forms over many years - maybe even started at St Olaf College as Classroom to Classroom Connections back in the 90's?? But they've grown into a huge corporation now! These kinds of projects are the ones I like the best - when you get kids talking to each other!

About Google Scholar - 0 views

  • Google Scholar helps you find relevant work across the world of scholarly research.
    • anonymous
       
      We often tell our students to avoid doing research online and to go to the library. However, we should be encouraging both. The issue with online is credibility of source. Students need to practice determining which are scholarly sources, worth of paper citation, and which are not.
  • Search all scholarly literature from one convenient place Explore related works, citations, authors, and publications Locate the complete document through your library or on the web Keep up with recent developments in any area of research
    • anonymous
       
      All of these actions need to become second nature for our students

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.

    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.

Education World: Five Ways to Use Padlet in Class - 3 views

  • Padlet is a free, online "virtual wall" tool where users can express thoughts on topics of their choice. It's like a piece of paper, but on the Web. 
    • vivianfranco
       
      I like Padlet because it seems it is a simple tool to get our students participate inside/outside the classroom. Sometimes students feel frustrated when they struggle with technology and then they have to figure out how to develop the task. So presenting the students easy ways to learn through technology can lower this cognitive overload.
