    I am amazed that they put all of this up online!  80+ presentations that have been recorded in a variety of ways, from the 2011 conference.  Take a browse through - there is bound to be something you're interested in finding out something more about.

    Oh, yes! I have met them and they have presented at IALLT and CALICO conferences. It seems like a really great product, but I have never actually used it.
  •  
    Yes - they present at either CALICO or IALLT (or both) - seems like a good product, altho other than playing with it a bit, I haven't actually used it...

    How do you think this is similar or different from the CLEAR tools? You can have students accounts?! I am posting under my husband's Diigo account apparently... this is Alyssa Rutherford. :)

Attitude and Self-Efficacy Change: English Language Learning in Virtual Worlds | Zheng | CALICO Journal - 1 views

  •  
    "This study explored affective factors in learning English as a foreign language in a 3D game-like virtual world, Quest Atlantis (QA). Through the use of communication tools (e.g., chat, bulletin board, telegrams, and email), 3D avatars, and 2D webpage navigation tools in virtual space, nonnative English speakers (NNES) co-solved online content-related problem quests with native English speakers (NES)."

    Very interesting, Mira. I would have thought the synchronous chats would have won hands down. A good reminder to offer students options. Thanks for sharing this!

The Best Ways to Build Student's Interpretive Listening Skills | Calico Spanish - 6 views

  • “Students should practice picking up key words and extrapolating main ideas using the context of what they hear.” @ChristeyHughes responded, “En français, we often refer to ‘la tolérance de l’ambiguité’ to be able to work through, perhaps not getting each word.”
  • “…Make sure that you select an appropriate length for novices–small doses of ‘anything.’”
  • “Multiple choice requires no production of any kind. Really, it’s only good for finding out what they don’t know.” @LauraJaneBarber said, “I like to do listening as input for a writing or speaking task. Can show true comprehension better than multiple choice.”
  • ...1 more annotation...
  • “Multiple choice helps lower the affective filter–the interpretation in itself is a higher order skill.” She went on to say, “Multiple choice shouldn’t be end goal, though.” @AMor3liana said, “I think multiple choice is an ok option at the beginning of the school year. It gives some students that extra boost of confidence in the target language.”

    I was searching for your highlight, as I am still very rusty in this Diigo skill. Could not find how to see it.
