This presentation will show participants why and how to incorporate scriptwriting in their ESL classroom by giving participants the knowledge and motivation to create and use wikis in their ESL/EFL classroom for scriptwriting. The presentation will include a brief overview of why both wikis and scriptwriting should be used in the classroom. The presenter will demonstrate how wikis have been used to create scripts in the classroom, and explain options for using the scripts once they are written (i.e., editing, converting into a story, and dramatizing in front of a class).
Co-hosted a story writing workshop at Agile Practitioners Meetup in Oct 2013. The workshop was followed by various real story samples & a scenario was given so participants could write ACs their own.

Education has changed since Covid struck. Teachers, students, and everyone inbetween have been required to find online methods for communicating and getting tasks done. One option for educators has been immersing their students in learning situations through virtual world activities. While some teachers are excited by the possibilities, others are overwhelmed by yet another technology being heaped on their already overladen plates. But using virtual worlds and creating the items you might need for lessons there, doesn't need to be intimidating.
This presentation is meant to help teachers and students over some of their perceived hurdles while creating many lessons for teaching idioms. Participants at the conference, or people who would like to review or process the information separately, can work through the step-by-step slides outlining best building practices at their own pace. The goal is to turn a daunting task into an enjoyable one.
Participants who attend the conference in Kitely in OpenSim will also be given a chance to tour Edutopia 1 and see many other teaching ideas via a car rally. The car rally is meant to showcase additional teaching tactics, and the car rally is also an example of another type of lesson teachers could immediately use with their students.
Finally, useful links are given to the presenter, her virtual worlds, and machinima posted on YouTube that further illustrate out-of-the-box teaching ideas.
This PowerPoint contains slides comparing virtual worlds grids and the Kitely grid where my worlds are. It also shows the incredibly wide range of free or cheap items in Kitely and all the games and exercises I have created and put on the Kitely Marketplace to teach English the way I think it should be taught in virtual worlds.
A virtual world for immersive language learning. Provides task-based ESL courses with roleplay situations and games set in the present, the past, the future, and the magical. Asynchronous individual tasks and synchronous, collaborative work move English language learners from around the globe to high levels of English competency. For more information, visit SLESL.net. SLESL is an acronym for Start Living English as a Second Language.
Builds on the basics we have been exploring by working on more advanced editing, including work flow ideas, techniques for repairing gaps, improving FPS, automatic captioning, scrolling credits, films within a film, and having one person use multiple avatars while filming.
Explores camera control tricks, other Second Life tips, and the Machinima Open Studio Project sound stages. In addition, thoroughly reviews how to make a machinima from still photos usting Camtasia.in preparation for next week's work with live footage.
Students write 3-sentence paragraphs. You give the first sentence. The catch is everything must be perfect for the student to be one of three students who will receive extra credit points. Teaches students to be more careful self-editors.
Especially in creative writing, it is useful to have a wide variety of words to choose from. Have students try to brainstorm this list. Then give it to them to use on their next short stories.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
5. Example Goals
* Illustrate:
A grammar point—past tense, conditionals . . .
A language function—expressing anger, ordering from a menu . . .
Vocabulary terms—body parts, idioms, . . .
* Tell a story for students to understand or draw conclusions from.
* Record students acting out a script.
* Having students use English in an intense way while creating videos
on a topic you or they choose.
6. Scriptwriting Steps
Step 2: Creating an outline—the major actions that need to be
covered in the different scenes of the script.

18. Story Boarding: Why Bother?
Storyboarding helps you:
1. Discover problems before you start filming
2. Make sure everyone is on the same page about what needs to be done
3. Analyze what shots and angles you want (wide establishing
shots, close-ups, cutaways, etc.)
4. Think about the purpose, props, dialogue, and action you need in each
shot
5. Make it evident when you are repeating ideas already covered by
previous action or dialogue.
36. Site Selection Criteria
Partial list of factors:
1. Is it necessary to get permission to film?
2. Is the sim voice-enabled?
3. Are there useful or annoying background sounds?
4. Are there avatars on the sim that might be useful as extras or problematic?
5. Is it possible to shoot several different type of scenes on the same sim?
37. Site Resources: Historic or Culturally
