Our objectives are:
We have created this blog with the objective of showing some Web 2.0 tools we use it
for creating activities for teaching English as a foreign language. The
activities were designed for various students; those students were having
problems in their learning process, for this reason we thought that teaching
them through Web 2.0 tools would improve their performance. With
this blog, our objectives are:
- To present the Web 2.0 tools we use it for designing teaching activities.
- To expose how Web 2.0 tools are used for teaching English.
- To show how technology can be used for creating didactic activities.
We think this blog is a great mean for letting other people
(Especially teachers and students) knows more about how they can take advantage
of the numerous tools and programs that Web 2.0 has to offer, so this blog has been
created with an educative purpose. Also, we
are going to expose a previous work we have done in the collaborative
phase 2. This work consists of various video tutorials we have made in order to
show how the Web 2.0 tool Audacity can be used for pedagogical purposes. The
collaborative members have made the video tutorials using Screencast. The links
of the videos will be showed along its correspondents entries. In this
blog, you will find the following topics:
- Daily routines (using Wix)
- The solar system (using Prezi, Educaplay and Youtube)
- Grammatical aspects: verbal tenses/ improving literacy skills (using YouTube, Blogger and SlideShare).
- Verb to be (using YouTube).
- Video tutorials about Audacity (Using Screencast).
Have a great time here!
