Twitter Tips: for Teachers & Educators | Technology Enhanced Learning Blog - 1 views

    • klmcguinness
       
      Does anyone know anything more about applications for shortening URLs? Any use for them other than for Twitter use?
    • srafuller
       
      I've used goo.gl which is Google's URL shortener. I like it because it also generates a QR code. The code can then be printed out and used for listening practice (the project that I used it with was a recorded dialogue uploaded to YouTube).
  • automated accounts that don’t have any visible purpose, someone who has nothing in common with you
  • looking at their follower/updates list; if they are following 10,000 people, have 20 followers, and only 1 update then I’d safely say it’s an automated account and can be ignored!

  • manage your Twitter
  • pull conferences and/or training together
    • klmcguinness
       
      Pull classrooms, class periods, departments, etc. More centralized than a shared Google doc? I'm thinking yes and participants will be forced to be brief.
  • engaging your followers on their content
  • No one likes a smart-arse
  • this means you can easily collate tweets together
  • you’ll end up learning from your learners.
  •  
    Karen, I use a shortener when I have a very long URL - even to include in an email, or to advertise something I want people to go to (a survey I did) and some shorteners will let you pick your own ending so it can be something recognizable rather than random letters. I think Twitter does this automatically for you now.

Nik's Learning Technology Blog - 2 views

    I've shared some of the apps from Niks blog already, there are some really great student and teacher tools for the language classroom and beyond. Short, easy to follow videos explaining each app are really useful. Watch out, though, found just a few links that are broken. Not all apps are free.

11 Awesome Chinese Blogs for Chinese Learners - 2 views

    • iwenyang
       
      I found that it is so critical to learn the language through the discovery of culture.  It is when you understand the culture you learn to view things in different perspective and open your mind to the language.
    • yflanders
       
      I love this website, love the way to learn the language through the culture and your interest. Thank you so much for introduced this to us.
  • Another great resource for learners of any level are Chinese blogs.  They cover living, working and travelling in China, Chinese life and culture, and of course the Chinese language itself.

    I am creating an online course. There are many ways to make that happen, but I think providing a learning platform through online should be my priority and not necessary forcing students to use technology to learn.

      I like how the video conversation shows the highlightings to guide you which phrase or words they are speaking..

    Here, native Mandarin speakers teach you Chinese as a second language. Audio and transcripts are available on the website. The lessons also place an emphasis on understanding Chinese culture.
