This is a publication of The Council of Europe, " The Council of Europe has a long and well established tradition of developing consensus on the aims and guiding principles of language teaching. Through its programmes of activities and publications it continues to pursue the development of language teaching to meet the needs of the contemporary world. Among its most recent initiatives in this tradition are the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages providing guidelines for teaching, learning and assessment, and the European Language Portfolio which allows learners to plan and reflect upon their learning, and to chart and describe their proficiency. There has also always been a concern to help teachers develop their theory and practice, for example by organising seminars and interaction networks and by publishing compendia which offer examples of good practice." This guide direct teachers to use language as a means to intercultural understanding.

Designing a course that listens to "other voices" of history and the present day and employs empathy allows students to come to a better understanding of history and current events. This approach will develop an appreciation for the complexities of history and social affairs. Upon learning these complexities students will be more engaged in analyzing the perceptions, stances, and experiences of the many related peoples of history and the present world.

shared by Liza Alton on 17 Aug 11 - No Cached

have students know there are certain expectations around computer use in a classroom just like there are in a place of business that are different from the ones at home; help students understand  the YouTube videos they choose to watch should add value to what they are doing in class; encourage  students to think critically when watching YouTube videos to determine if the videos have the potential to add value to the task at hand; have students practice thinking critically about the videos they are watching and evaluating them.

I don’t think its much of a stretch for them to think critically about what they have seen.  They’ll be expected to complete an entry for each video they choose to watch during this activity.
