Voxopop - a whole new way to talk online - 1 views

  •  
    Voxopop is a web based audio tool that enables users to record their speaking for others to listen and respond to. It allows teachers and students to build up threaded audio discussions online similar to those on a text based bulletin board. You can even open a private talkgroup (which is like a virtual classroom where only you and your students participate). It may not be the perfect solution for Speaking activities, but you'll probably find it pretty useful for your teaching purposes.

  • la relación se da a través de medios de comunicación en espacios virtuales sincrónicos o asincrónicos, como el correo-e, el foro de discusión, la lista de distribución, el chat, el teléfono, audio y video conferencias. La interactividad es mucho mayor a la distancia, pues cada estudiante debe apropiarse de los conocimientos a partir de los contenidos que se le proporcionan, de los materiales didácticos y de los programas de cómputo, entre otros.
  • En contraposición, el docente a distancia debe poseer otras habilidades como comunicación escrita, manejo de medios de información y  comunicación, dominio en el uso de programas de cómputo y utilización de materiales didácticos autosuficientes.

What do students want from their schools? | eSchoolNews.com - 1 views

  • Sixth- through 12th-graders listed features they would like to see in their ultimate digital textbook, such as having the ability to personalize their book with electronic highlights and notes and being able to tap into the expertise of an online tutor whenever necessary.
  • Student respondents also offered ideas for an ultimate digital textbook. The survey showed students are interested in leveraging a wide range of capabilities to produce a new kind of textbook. "For many students, the idea of using a hard-copy textbook that is out of date as soon as it is printed is as archaic in today’s world as the abacus in a math class," the report states.
  • Students currently use eMail, instant messaging, and text-messaging tools for communications, with nearly one-half of students in sixth through 12th grade using the tools regularly, according to the report. Students also heavily use social networking, online games, blogging, and virtual-reality environments. Evans said schools and districts should find ways to create instruction that runs parallel to how students are using collaborative tools and Web 2.0 technologies outside the classroom.
