Cool Web 2.0 Tools for Teachers & Students
This document summarizes various Web 2.0 tools that can be used by teachers and students, including Glogster for online posters, Prezi for presentations, blogs, wikis, Wordle for word clouds, Animoto for slideshows and videos, Audioboo for podcasting, Skype for video calls, and EtherPad for real-time collaboration. It provides examples and classroom ideas for using each tool, and asks readers to evaluate one tool using a plus-minus-interesting chart. The presenters provide their contact information and examples of tasks readers could complete using some of the tools.
Socialbookmarking 07 09
This document provides information on using blogs, wikis, and social bookmarking tools in education. It begins by outlining different uses of blogs, such as for individual journaling, class websites, and showcasing student work. Examples are given of popular blogging platforms suitable for both students and teachers. Wikis are then discussed and compared to blogs, noting that wikis allow for collaborative work and data sharing, while blogs are more individual. Popular wiki platforms are listed and examples given of their use in classroom projects and websites. Finally, social bookmarking is explained as a way to collaboratively tag and organize web resources, with suggestions for how it can be used to share curriculum resources among students and teachers.
Blogs in ELT (Final Asssignment for the E-learning and Digital Cultures Course)
This is my final assignment for the E-learning and Digital Cultures course organized by the University of Edinburgh on www.coursera.org in February 2013. The assignment consists of two files. The first file includes a PowerPoint presentation dedicated to the use of blogs and blogging activities in the system of teaching English as a second/foreign language. The second file contains some theoretical materials related to the use of blogs in English language teaching, as well as my meditations and reflections on the use of blogging activities in my actual teaching practice. So both files are related to the same topic - the use of blogs as a form of online writing in the system of teaching English as a second/foreign language. So these materials refer to some extent to several important and up-to-date aspects discussed in the given course as "Communication technologies", "Open (and Opening) Education" and "The Meanings of Learning".
Opening The Doors to Contemporary Learning
Teachers need to model contemporary learning for students by creating, sharing, collaborating, and providing feedback. This involves developing personal learning networks on tools like Twitter to connect with other educators. Google offers many free tools for creation and sharing, such as Google Docs, SketchUp, Earth, and custom searches. Other useful tools mentioned include Bubbl.us for mind mapping, Teaching with TED, Quest Atlantis for virtual worlds, Spore for simulation, and Diigo for social bookmarking. Contemporary learning goes beyond just skills to develop a way of thinking and learning through participation in online communities.
Who What When Where Why How -- Online Projects
This document provides information about online projects for teaching and learning. It discusses how online projects can enhance curriculum, allow collaboration with others, and teach skills like communication, problem solving, and research. Some benefits highlighted include encouraging project-based learning, motivating students, having real-world application, and sharing results. Various topic ideas and online resources for projects are also listed.
Asynchronous Learning Environments
The document summarizes a conference on asynchronous learning environments that will discuss how technology can be used to extend learning beyond the classroom. It defines synchronous learning as occurring in real-time via video conferences or chats, while asynchronous learning uses tools like blogs, wikis, and YouTube that allow engagement anytime from anywhere. The benefits of asynchronous learning include accessibility, opportunities for exploration and community building, additional support and differentiation, and interaction with others. District leaders are encouraged to model asynchronous practices by using webcasts, Google Docs, and blogs to engage teachers.
Workshop for Bridgewater State University
This document provides tools and techniques for open pedagogy including using open educational resources (OER), learner-driven course plans, building a professional learning network (PLN), publishing student work online, creating open textbooks, public and social reading, and assigning non-disposable projects. It discusses specific examples like publishing student blogs, ePorts, using Pressbooks to create open textbooks, annotating readings using Hypothes.is, and assigning projects that create open resources or make recommendations.
Use libguides to support your class research
This document discusses how LibGuides can be used as a digitally platform to remove outdated stereotypes of libraries and provide library services. It highlights how LibGuides allows for customization and integration of tools like social media, videos, and surveys. Teachers are encouraged to request subject-specific LibGuides from the library media specialist to support classroom needs and projects.

Etec697finalpres copy
James Petersen chose to contribute to the open source Zotero reference management software project for his ETEC 697 final project. Zotero allows users to manage bibliographic data and research materials across devices and includes features like in-text citations and cloud syncing. Petersen will edit the Zotero wiki documentation and introduce the software at his institution by developing instructional materials and identifying opportunities for support. While one project he considered stagnated, Petersen recognized potential for Zotero in his teaching and was surprised by instructor interest. Going forward, he will continue prototyping instruction and training faculty to promote Zotero's collaborative abilities.

Cooperative Language Learning
John Dewey promoted building cooperation into classrooms as traditional models favored competition. Collaborative language learning (CLL) uses group work and is considered a form of cooperative learning. It provides opportunities for natural language acquisition through pair and group work while developing learning strategies. CLL relies on positive interdependence among group members, individual accountability, and social skills to structure cooperative activities and maximize language practice.
