50 ways to use video in the classroom - EFL CLASSROOM 2.0

50 ways to use video in the classroom - EFL CLASSROOM 2.0 | EdTech Tools | Scoop.it

ideas for using video in the EFL Classroom

Ellen Graber's curator insight, March 6, 2013 9:27 AM

Wow, only 50..how many more applications for video can you think of? What have you done?

Alysse Martin's curator insight, March 6, 2013 10:03 PM

Now to give an example of how these ideas can align with the new technology curriculum (ACARA). Let's take Point 9...

Foundation to year 2 technology curriculum: 

2.1 Recognise and play with patterns in data and represent data as pictures, symbols and diagrams.

Learning Activity:

Get students to watch a "how to" video or a clip of a technological process (e.g. milking cows) then ask student to draw pictures to sequence the steps.

Another example, Point 22...

Foundation to year 2 technology curriculum: 

2.2 Describe how people use different information systems safely to meet personal and family communication and recreation needs.

Learning Activity:

Have students conduct a skype interview of a person of an older generation to gain insight into what information systems they used for communication and recreation when they were the age of the students. Compare this to the students experience.
