Editor's Notes
- Been teaching since 1994. Been teaching in San Diego since October! (Moved here in August) Been teaching at SDCC since January (8 weeks?) Started getting interested in tech about 15 years ago. First taught in the dirt in a rural village in Bots. As ESL we love hands-on activities, and we still do. But what I’ve found is that tech can enhance and increase the community and take it beyond the classroom walls but bring us closer together when we are in the classroom. My current classes are not online or in labs. Wifi doesn’t even work sometimes. Utilizing students tools. Going to labs when possible. Doing many “normal” ESL activities in the f2f classroom.
- Better picture? Maybe student picture
- Add instagram
- embed new video
- Actually do one – in groups – show sample student reports
- add new ones – maybe a chart
- A community needs a venue to meet. Where will yours be? Because I need a “landing page” Community information. All of these have mobile apps. A big plus for a busy teacher/mom . . . Especially adjunct. Can check in my car/etc.
- At many of my first workshops for Bb and Moodle it was all about how to dump your work into the bucket. Add worksheets. Link to videos. Put up assignments. YES. But also use the tools that build the community: profiles/webpages. Blogs. Wikis. Chat. Forums. Remember when they used to have to get each others’ phone numbers? They already have the framework for finding each other.
- Add new image
- Add new one
- Add in the one about identity
- Add instagram selfies
- Add student blogs – from passion projects
- Students are invested. Write personally and authentically.
