A new way of teaching and learning foreign languages has emerged: using virtual worlds, such as Second Life, to increase student engagement and confidence as they build new language skills. 
For a long time now I have been looking for a tool that enables instant polling in the classroom or in the lecture room. I specifically wanted something that: doesn't require registration (especially from the people I'm polling) updates very quickly works on any platform from computers to mobile devicesIt looks like I have finally found what I've been looking for and best of all it's free. The tool that I have found is Mentimeter and it does all of the above. 
En la actualidad no se pueden disociar las finalidades del sistema educativo de las competencias que se requieren de los docentes; y todavía más si queremos y apostamos por un sistema educativo que tenga una función orientadora y no sólo propedéutica. Via L. García Aretio

In his latest book, "Teaching Digital Natives. Partnering for Real Learning," Marc Prensky discusses 21st education in terms of verbs (skills) and nouns (tools). Kathy Schrock does an excellent job of bringing this to life in her Google Tools to Support Bloom's Taxonomy. Ok.. let's practice a little bit your English... rumor has it ... that you can do that! ;)

In my example, the technology making virtual worlds possible would be the new "beverage on the block." And the immersive 3D environments where all this takes place have become the new "coffee house" where any of us from anywhere in the world with an Internet connection can meet, share ideas, learn, motivate, and inspire each other to expand our horizons. I would compare the community congregating in these new meeting houses to those who first started hanging out in coffee houses in the late 1700s/early 1800s. Just like the traditional coffee house, some days you might just find everyone sitting around enjoying the company; other days there's an excitement or buzz in the air because a new topic has been introduced, and people are excited about its potential to change our lives. All of us who spend time there usually leave with much more than what we brought to the table. And the people who have not yet realized what's in the coffee house or what it offers, avoid it and follow their traditional habits not really knowing or understanding what is really going on in there. |

Be a Most Excellent Class Manager
Here is my personal checklist. When I recall the few occasions when I have had discipline issues in one of my classes – and I promise you I have so few, that they really stop me on my tracks and get me to reflect and think through what I did or did not do; more often than not, it’s because I have been remiss and did not follow my own advice! My instructions are simple and clear My instructions are carefully checked My class is always well prepared for activities (words, ideas, grammar, knowledge) I check again and again I monitor their work I show interest in their ideas (not just the language) I assess their performance but remember to tell them what to do to improve I give feedback in a pleasant and tactful way I remember to praise, too In adult classes, if you are remiss in any of these areas, you may or may not have discipline problems. Adults don’t get rowdy (but they get passive, bored and disinterested) when they don’t understand but children and teens find this an excellent opportunity to get up to all sorts of naughty actions – but remember, it’s not their fault!!!! It’s never their fault if they don’t know what to do or how to do it.'Seeking Wisdom in the Stars', by Spiral Silverstar takes up across the universe in the pursuit of wisdom. This machinima is now part of the L$725,000, MachinimUWA V: Seek Wisdom. MachinimUWA V's theme is a tribute to the Centenary of the University of Western Australia and UWA's New Courses 2012. 
Hello, Everyone!.. since everybody should be working on your first post in your blogs this week.. This is an example you can follow to write your welcome to my blog post. 
La red ha cambiado la forma que tenemos de relacionarnos con muchas cosas, entre ellas el mundo de la educación. En nuestro ajetreado día a día, la formación online nos ha permitido compaginar nuestro trabajo y nuestras ocupaciones con la... 15 ACCIONES de ALFIN… …por un trabajo colaborativo y de generación de redes para el crecimiento de la alfabetización informacional en el contexto de los países iberoamericanos En los últimos diez años, en el marco de diferentes eventos y contextos, se han presentado a la comunidad internacional distintas Declaraciones sobre la alfabetización informacional –ALFIN–, sobre la formación en competencias informacionales, en relación con otras alfabetizaciones y competencias. Esta DECLARACIÓN quiere, retomando aspectos claves en lo conceptual, filosófico y propositivo de esas anteriores Declaraciones (Praga, 2003; Alejandría, 2005; Toledo, 2006; Lima, 2009; Paramillo, 2010; Murcia, 2010; Maceió, 2011; Fez, 2011), suscribir varios compromisos para poner en marcha acciones prácticas y concretas desde la perspectiva del trabajo colaborativo y la generación de redes para el crecimiento de la alfabetización informacional en nuestros contextos tras haber tenido la oportunidad de reunir a distintos profesionales, bibliotecas, instituciones educativas y organizaciones pertenecientes a diferentes países iberoamericanos y conocer su visión, lecciones aprendidas y perspectivas en el tema de ALFIN. Por tanto, proponemos y nos comprometemos a trabajar de diferentes maneras y según nuestras posibilidades y alcances, por estas 15 ACCIONES...
ALFARED... La autora analiza la literatura existente sobre competencias digitales, evidencia la diversidad de conceptos, mencionando conceptos como los de alfabetización computacional, alfabetización TIC, alfabetización digital, alfabetización informacional o alfabetización mediática, con significados propios pero también con puntos de encuentro, y no siendo todas estas alfabetizaciones de carácter exclusivamente digital. En el documento de Ala-Mutka, se destaca la importancia de las competencias digitales, pues una persona con un nivel insuficiente de competencias digitales estará en riesgo de quedar excluida de distintas actividades, perderá importantes oportunidades e, incluso, puede ponerse en riesgo al usar de forma inadecuada las tecnologías, por ello las competencias digitales son habilidades para el siglo XXI que deberían ser adquiridas por todos los ciudadanos, a fin de garantizar su participación activa en la sociedad y la economía. |
