Two years ago, at the start of the project, I said I wanted iTILT to help teachers to use the IWB judiciously - not everywhere, but in a number of situations. I hoped teachers could integrate the IWB into their working environment and see it as one more tool to support classroom pratice.
I also hoped the project would allow us to explore other, non-teacher fronted ways of using IWB, so it is not just a glorified presentation tool. My experience of the IWB showed me that it does open up the computer screen to classroom, allowing learners to participate.
For example, when you're at the board and having trouble with a specific tool, these little errors are great contexts for learning, because these very practical problems can be resolved in target language. Everyone sees and everyone can participate. In this way you get "two for one" - working on your exercise, but more language work as a bonus.
I argued that the IWB can dramatically improve learner opportunities for to use the language in the classroom in a meaningful way.
Shona Whyte's insight:
Looking back now, I stand by what I saw then as the main affordances of the IWB and my goals for the project. Used well the IWB can transform teaching and learning opportunities in FL classrooms.
What strikes me now is how the project moved beyond the tool itself to take on range of other - mainly pedagogical - issues. What kind of interaction do we see around the board? What makes an activity communicative? How can materials and teachers support FL interaction?
And of course, how can we now exploit the iTILT website (http://itilt.eu): the training manual, the teaching resources, and our over 250 video examples of classroom language teaching with the IWB? Delete the scoop?

This is an older (2010) post from Nik Peachey explaining how to link a Posterous blog with the podcasting site AudioBoo for speaking activities.
He explains how to upload students' recordings directly from the classroom using mobile apps. One click puts the audio on AudioBoo and posts it to Posterous. In the way, students can listen to each other's recordings and post comments, and the teacher can provide feedback, all via the blog.
This is something I like to do with classes yet always seems to involve a lot of clicking on my part, and perhaps less engagement from learners as they hear their presentations days after the event. So I'll be checking this combination out to see if it will work for me. Delete the scoop?

30(1) A Conceptual Overview of the History of the CALICO Journal: The Phases of CALL
Podcast of recent journal articles.
Shona Whyte's insight:
Audio recording of research articles from top computer-assisted language learning journal CALICO produced using text-to-speech software. A good way to optimise your commute, and to get round the paywall if you don't have a CALICO subscription, though it has a little of that "at the next roundabout, take the second exit" quality ...
