Third, teachers can encourage collaborative learning in a number of ways with Google Slides. An assignment could be designed so that each student creates their own slides; once combined into one presentation, students can learn from each other. Or, small groups can collaborate on one slide presentation in real-time and then present their slides to the class, allowing for an engaging student presentation.

I took this idea for my lesson. I would like to add a piece with Pear Deck or Poll Everywhere to augment it. I have seen both apps used, but have never used them myself.

This is a great idea for using with Poll Everywhere. Thanks for sharing!
-
Thanks! I used GS so much this past year, and yet did not use it deliberately to encourage collaboration and community-building. This gives me great ideas.
FlipGrid Tutorial - YouTube - 2 views
-
FlipGrid tutorial that helped to walk me through setting up different topics for students to participate in.
-
I so needed this!
-
It seems somewhat self-explanatory, but by watching the tutorial I came up with a few ideas that would not have otherwise come up. Among them, I can use FG as a scaffolding activity to match student progress over the course of a quarter or semester. It offers a few features that could appropriately match this growth-- I can write a prompt with an image, video, video + link. Anyway, I can see now more clearly how to FG can be a great resource for my classroom.

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!

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.

(28) 5 Strategies for Using Flipgrid in the Language Learning Classroom | LinkedIn - 6 views
-
Since others posted tutorials, I chose an article from a teacher who shares its value.
-
I really like this instructor's take on communication in the classroom, and how to use FlipGrid to foster it.
-
I loved the story of Connie who was nervous to speak in class but felt comfortable and excelled in flipgrid! Her picture was Sully from Monsters inc which gave me the idea of having students use dolls or stuffed animals to present stories on flip grid in the voice of that character.
How My Students Use Adobe Spark Page to Create Online Presentations - 3 views

Creating an account for Adobe just requires an email address and password. An .edu address is not necessary, so teachers can keep their accounts if they happen to change schools. Students can use the program for multiple classes without having to join any teacher’s class.

Will be useful info for my students.

Using Seesaw in the language classroom. It is a place where students can write comments and respond to each other's writing. It allows teachers to have all of their students writing in one place, organized into classes, and allows the teacher to give feedback.
Unlike in US, most European students learn a foreign language | Pew Research Center - 1 views
-
In a 2016 Pew Research Center report on the state of American jobs, only 36% of Americans reported that knowing a foreign language was an extremely or very important trait for workers to be successful in today’s economy, ranking it last out of eight skills for workers’ success
-
This is not related to our synchronous activities of the week, but suggests a link we've yet to make so far: how to use tech in our classroom to help to change the perception, prevalent in the US, that foreign languages are not an essential professional skill. With all the wonderful apps we've seen this past few weeks, there's surely something to do be with them about this 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.
-
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?

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

I kept hearing how awesome Evernote was

My school has Evernote premium available to all teachers--it's basically just like Diigo, so I'm excited to try and figure it out this year.

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!

there is a longer time lag between sending and receiving text messages or audio files via the chat facility, although both parties are online at the same time. We thus coined a new phrase to capture the speed of such interaction, semi-synchronous, which is under investigation in this research.
-
'semi-synchronous' engagement for language learning seems highly useful, to allow students time to formulate responses and even research vocabulary or grammar structures that they need to use before production in TL.

there is a tendency to not reach the stage of resolution in online asynchronous text-based discussion
