LanguageGuide: Foreign Language Vocabulary, Grammar, and Readings - 6 views
-
This is a great vocabulary builder in French, Spanish, Russian, Mandarin, etc. I introduced it in the lab and my students loved it. There are many topics and when you put the cursor on the picture it tells you by words and pronunciation what it is in the target language.

This is such a great website for my students! I was really excited to find this resource. I took my beginning French students to the lab today and they loved it. I will also share it with the Spanish teachers. Merci!
Wordplay Spanish Vocabulary Game - 3 views

Wordplay is a free online game that helps students develop a large, permanent Spanish Vocabulary. All learning is done with a simple game which automatically adjusts to each student's unique needs. Students learn the proper meaning, pronunciation, and spelling of each word. They also build long-term retention with reviews that automatically adjust in frequency based on demonstrated skill. Each student spends exactly the amount of play time he or she uniquely needs with each new word -- no more, no less -- so that vocabulary learning and retention is optimized while students have fun.

Jean Lave, Etienne Wenger and communities of practice - 0 views
-
Supposing learning is social and comes largely from of our experience of participating in daily life? It was this thought that formed the basis of a significant rethinking of learning theory in the late 1980s and early 1990s by two researchers from very different disciplines - Jean Lave and Etienne Wenger. Their model of situated learning proposed that learning involved a process of engagement in a 'community of practice'.
-
When looking closely at everyday activity, she has argued, it is clear that 'learning is ubiquitous in ongoing activity, though often unrecognized as such' (Lave 1993: 5).
-
Communities of practice are formed by people who engage in a process of collective learning in a shared domain of human endeavour: a tribe learning to survive, a band of artists seeking new forms of expression, a group of engineers working on similar problems, a clique of pupils defining their identity in the school, a network of surgeons exploring novel techniques, a gathering of first-time managers helping each other cope. In a nutshell: Communities of practice are groups of people who share a concern or a passion for something they do and learn how to do it better as they interact regularly. (Wenger circa 2007)
