Social media contract for parents and teensJill Celeste
Worried about your child's social media activities? Consider a social media contract between you (as the parent) and your child. This is an example contract that you can modify for your family's needs. Before your child starts using Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and other social networks, be sure to spell out exactly how you want your child to use social media. The contract includes posting guidelines, consequences, and "rules for the road" - all to keep your teen safe while using social media.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

9. Poll Everywhere Presenter Tips
Explain what s going on
• Now I m going to ask for your opinion. Y ll use your phones to respond just like on American Idol.
ou
So please take out your cell phones, but remember to leave them on silent.
• Y ll participate by sending a text message. If you don t know how to do that, just ask your kids! Or
ou
have your neighbor help you figure it out.
Address their concerns
• This is a just standard rate text message, so it may be free for you, or up to twenty cents on some
carriers if you do not have a text messaging plan.
• The service we are using is serious about privacy. We cannot see your phone numbers, and you ll
never receive follow-up text messages outside this presentation. There s only one thing worse than
email spam – and that s text message spam because you have to pay to receive it!
Use a demo or practice poll
• For example, a Free T Poll like Let s Practice: T in your first name!
ext ext
Always test your polls in your presentation before your event using the
computer that will be projecting your presentation, especially if that
computer is not the one you re currently using.

http://www.techlearning.com/blogs/35840
by Lisa Nielsen
16. 1. Upon entry and departure of class, please ensure cell phones are turned
off and stored in your backpack.
2. On days when we are using cell phones for learning, please ensure they are
set to silent.
3. Only use phones for learning purposes related to classwork.
4. When phones are not in use on a day we are using cells for learning place
them face down on the upper right side of your desk.
5. If you notice someone in the class using their cell phone inappropriately,
remind them to use proper cell phone etiquette.
6. If at any time your teacher feels you are not using your cell phone for class
work you will be asked to place your phone in the bin in the front of the
room with a post-it indicating your name and class.
• After the first infraction each month you can collect your phone at the end of
class.
• After the second infraction you can collect your phone at the end of the day.
• After the third infraction your parent or guardian will be asked to retrieve
your phone. If you use the phone inappropriately again during the month
your parent or guardian will be required to retrieve your phone.
• At the beginning of each month, you have a clean slate.
