Is this new style of teaching a more efficient way of educating today's students?

I've never come across with AR use with young learners till this video. I have always thought that AR is more suitable for adult learners, but this video showed me how to integrate a complex -hi-tech app into young learner teaching setting. Thanks Melike!

The infographic is about how teachers can integrate Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Youtube and Wordpress into education.It suggests that there are four dimensions. They are connect, notify, teach and curate.

The tips in this infographic are really good Ecenaz. Thank you for sharing them. In my opinion, the best thing about it is that the tips are highly integrable for all disciplines.

Ece, this is a very helpful guide for teachers on how to use social media in classroom.

Thanks for sharing I would also like to invite you to the "1st International Instructional Technologies & Teacher Education Symposium" which will take place on June 26th - 28th 2013, Trabzon/ TURKEY http://ittes.org/ITTES_2013/

Matti,this looks like an interesting conference and directly related to the new media and pedagogies. Thanks for sharing.

I am interested in checking out Google Course Builder!

Me too, very intriguing! Think of the possibility and potential to synthesize the pool of Google tools!!!

An article by Rob Klindt. Online teacher communities offer one of the best ways for new and veteran educators to keep up with industry trends. These communities encourage teachers to collaborate and share resources with colleagues, discuss teaching strategies and connect with experts in the education field.

What's special about Finland's educational system? How they facilitate educational technologies in their classrooms? Here in the article you can find the answers of these questions.

This site enables one to research his/her online options with our database of more than 1,600 schools by filtering his/her choices by subject, degree level, tuition, and more to find an online school that will fit his/her needs.

There is an article about flipped classroom in physical education (PE). It gives general information on what flipped learning is, and why this is a teaching method for the future. Also, it informs to readers how the method can be applied to the subject PE. There is nothing new; the method is the same as the other courses.

Very interesting indeed! It would be helpful if the author illustrated further the data analysis process, including coding. One challenge working with self-report data is that it's self reported. It's important to add more direct data sources for triangulation purpose, analyses of documents, e.g., lesson plans, in this particular case with preservice teachers. I would recommend observations. In fact, Evrim and I have been working with a few colleagues on an observation study among exemplary teachers with technology integration with the goal to visualize TPACK. That's one of the focuses in my dissertation. I designed a TPAKC-in-Action model to guide the CALL teacher education workshops and conducted them with inservice English teachers in Taiwan. After completed those workshops, I went to teachers' classrooms and observe their teaching. There have been some interesting and amazing findings and results! Will share more with everyone in June. Before then,...

The results of the current study show that teachers involved in Fatih Project were especially content with being able to make their lessons visually more appealing for their students. They were, however, not satisfied with the in-service training provided, especially in understanding ways to effectively integrate the technologies into their teaching, and the limitations put upon Internet access from the tablets. The impacts of these tools on their teaching practices were very minimal.

You probably came across the famous quote by Dr. Ray Clifford saying "Technology will not replace teachers, but teachers who do not use technology will be replaced." Well, that might change sooner than we had anticipated. Some companies have been working very hard for several years to manufacture real-time translation devices like the one mentioned in the article attached. Although most of the attempts are too immature to be taken seriously, I think we will have devices in the next decade that are able to translate satisfactorily across languages. Whether this will have a tangible impact on language teaching professionals is yet to be seen.
