Using Skype class to class - More Spanish - 2 views

  • this post explains how the whole class was involved in a communicative experience with another class.
  • My students will talk into the computer as they sit in front of the web cam, and they will be able to view the other class on the projector.
  • 24-32 students,
  • ...5 more annotations...
  • do a lot of the organizing before
  •   I had my students write down 6-8 questions they could ask the students in the other class
  • encouraged them to ask questions to a specific student by using their name.
  • The key to this experience is working with the same group of kids, and getting to know them before the initial Skype session if possible, or meeting through Skype on a regular basis with a specific topic to discuss so a relationship can develop.

Twitter as a Powerful Educational Tool | Using Twitter Hashtags - 1 views

  • What Mubarak might not have known is that while he was trying to maintain his iron grip on power, thousands of Egyptians were tweeting about their frustration with the dictator. Eventually, the people on the street, armed with nothing more than a cell phone and a free social media site, changed the course of history. If you are a middle or high school social studies teacher, and you wanted to provide your students with a close-up view of the events unfolding in Egypt, you could turn to a traditional news service. Or, you could follow the hashtag #Egypt on Twitter and tap into the real-time pulse of unfolding events by people on the streets of Cairo.
