I love free resources and I also love help to remember how to do something "techy". Once I have used a tool several different times, I am good to go. However, the first couple of times, I always need my reference.

Resource guides to some common digital tools, all in one place!

I'm all about free resources! I especially like that there is a free Prezi guide b/c my students have to use Prezi for some of their projects, including one on the final exam, and it's tough for them if they have never used it before. That guide could really help in their understanding of how to use this tool.

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".

This sounds like a fun thing to do with middle-schoolers! -
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! :(

We do a lot of TPRS at my school, so this would be helpful to bring the stories to life.

Super interesting thread on ways in which other Spanish teachers have incorporated iPads into their classrooms! Maybe some ideas for people?

Just what I was looking for...I have many students whose lives revolve around their smartphones and iPads.

IA Strategy: Addressing the Signatures of Information Overload :: UXmatters - 1 views
-
Koltay—and likely most of you who are reading this column—have observed how Web 2.0 and the use of folksonomies have created conditions that result in information overload. When we provide applications that let users manage information, and those users have limited to no awareness of knowledge organization for the Web, the information architectures that evolve for users and the entire system may be less than optimal. Since most users are not equipped to produce sound classification schemes or efficient top-down taxonomies on their own, their impact on any system creates what I call a literacy gap, depicted in Figure 6. Depending on the other signatures of information overload that play out in users’ interaction with a system, the consequences of their literacy gap can lead to information overload. Koltay’s article makes this claim, and I agree.
-
I am experimenting with "sticky notes" as I ponder info overload and juggle all the new web2.0 I can handle! :-)

The above excerpt reminds me of a collaborative review project that we did in my class at the end of the last school year. We broke down each unit and lesson that we had covered into chunks and each student was supposed to make virtual flashcards (on quizlet.com) with their chunk of the material. Some students did great while others were absolutely lost while using the computers. It had a deleterious effect on the overall project. As I try to imagine implementing more web resources with the goal of productive communication and interaction in L2, I am troubled by the disparity of web/computer literacy among students. I don't mean to sound negative, but it is something I really struggle with. What about the students who lack the necessary skills?
-
Even when working with teachers, we find this in workshops. We tend to pair/group teachers, so they can help each other out - have you tried that with students?
-
Yes, I did assign pairs. Some students are smartphone literate and seem to have little to no interest in anything desktop. Hmmm...perhaps I should try focusing on the ipads.
-
-
Yes, while Twitter is most engaging when tweets are firing away, it is also a poster child for propagating information overload.
-
Another good point! I love all the new technologies at our fingertips, but at some point it becomes a bit overwhelming.

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. :)
Google Plus Comes to Google Apps for (Higher) Education - 0 views

I do have some concerns about privacy with G+, but I am still trying to weigh, in my mind, the benefits vs. the costs of using a slick app like G+ vs. something we already have access to behind a password like Moodle. I am also wondering if the quality of engagement is the same, better or worse than that found in a forum like Moodle.

I found this while sorting through my old bookmarks to add them to diigo. Anyone ever used this or heard of it?
-
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!

I think this is another great use of this tool and students can do this perhaps as an extra activity which will allow them to practice their new vocabulary without the pressure of receiving a grade for it. I also use this to create "Spanish in action" cartoons to embed in my announcements.
