Improving SPAG for All Ages - 1 views

  •  
    "The teaching of grammar has changed completely in a generation. While formal teaching of spelling and punctuation have been a mainstay of the classroom, just a few decades ago there was very little teaching of grammar. Many pupils formally encountered grammar through the study of other languages. Now SPaG takes up a large part of the primary curriculum, but have secondary colleagues noticed a difference? In this session we are discussion how to improve SPaG skills and usage at all levels of schooling and beyond."

Google Translation Center: The World's Largest Translation Memory - GigaOM - 0 views

  • Google is preparing to launch Google Translation Center
  • This is an interesting move, and it has broad implications for the translation industry, which up until now has been fragmented and somewhat behind the times, from a technology standpoint
  • Google has been investing significant resources in a multi-year effort to develop its statistical machine translation technology.

  • Google Translation Center is a straightforward and very clever way to gather a large corpus of parallel texts to train its machine translation systems.
  • If Google releases an API for the translation management system, it could establish a de facto standard for integrated machine translation and translation memory, creating a language platform around which projects like Der Mundo can build specialized applications and collect more training data.
  • On the other hand, GTC could be bad news for translation service bureaus — especially those that use proprietary translation management systems as a way to hold customers and translators hostage.
  • For freelancers, GTC could be very good news; they could work directly with clients and have access to high quality productivity tools. Overall this is a welcome move that will force service providers to focus on quality, while Google, which is competent at software, can focus on building tools.
  • That strategy would also eliminate a potential conflict of interest
  • translation professionals are understandably wary of contributing to something that could put them out of work
  • as well as avoid channel conflicts with partners who will be their best advocates in selling to various clients
  • my guess is Google will make this a free tool for the translation industry to use, and it will figure the money part out later. It can afford to be patient
  • I remain convinced that a multilingual web will be a reality in a short time, and that a menagerie of tools and services will emerge over the next few years — some geared toward helping translators, some toward building translation communities, and others that make publishing multilingual sites and blogs easy and intuitive.
  • the web will begin translating itself, and within a short time

Chinese Tools - Online tools to learn chinese - 0 views

  • Chinese Order Stroke
    • Rob McTaggart
       
      Great for IWB's!
  • Hand Writing Recognition
    • Rob McTaggart
       
      This is a good way for students to check if their Chinese writing is legible. If the computer can't guess at what it may be, maybe they need to keep working at it. Built for success and great for interactive whiteboards.
  • Chinese Annotation Tool
    • Rob McTaggart
       
      This tool takes a sentence in Chinese (not pinyin unfortunately) and gives an English or French translation for every word individually. Very good for breaking up sentences into small parts, for analysing word-order and for students to check their writing.

  • Chinese Annoted News
    • Rob McTaggart
       
      Great for more advanced students. This site gives small news stories and any word that is hovered over is translated into pinyin and English.
  • Chinese Dictionary NEW
    • Rob McTaggart
       
      This is one of the best Chinese-English dictionaries on the internet, when you consider that so many of the words have audio and an animation of the stroke order for writing.
  •  
    This is a fantastic resource for any classroom learning Chinese or about China. The dictionary pinyin with tones as well as simplified and traditional writing, an animation of the order stroke for many words and audio of how the word should be spoken. There is also other resources such as practice sheets for writing, a translator, and other stuff for kids and the classroom.
