Using educational technology - Team 1



Welcome team 1,

Your mission should you choose to accept it is to go through the following 4 steps individually (30 minutes), then with your partner discuss the use of the different tools in EFL teaching (10 minutes) and finally present your ideas to the rest of the groups (10 minutes). As always, should you or any of your team be lost surfing the internet or caught visiting other webpages, the teacher will disavow any knowledge of your actions. Good luck!!

Step 1:
Watch the video on the following link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NN2I1pWXjXI
Think of what language skills a teacher could promote using blogs.

Step 2:
Check the following link. What skills could students practice with it? http://edu.glogster.com/

Step 3:
Go to: http://translation.babylon.com/
How could an English teacher use a site like this one?

Step 4:
Check the following two links. How could students benefit from using these two websites?

  1. Based on the Lesson Plan created in the previous session, teachers would select two (2) tech tools to be used with students adapting them to activities for the class.
    Assessment criteria will be based on:
    - Presenting the activities to be done with clear instructions and their relation/relevance to the objective of the lesson.
    - Explaining what skills will be developed with those tech tools and activities.
    - Defining how the feedback would be done.
