Presentation Title: Planificación y Diseño de Lección en Línea a través de Blogs

Presentation Description: The aim of this presentation is to show how blogs can be used to plan and design a paperless online lesson. To do that, I will start by defining what an online lesson is, its advantages and certain things we have to consider about it. I will also give a broad brush view on blogs before I start talking about planning and designing an online lesson using blogs. To end this presentation, I show a sample of an online lesson in Blogger.

The Top 10 unit is aligned to standards, big ideas and essential questions, and integrates a variety of instructional strategies both off line and on line. Although the work you will view was done by 4th grade students, this model could be applied across the grade levels.

Presentation Title: Integrating Online Language Tasks for Young Learners

Presentation Description: How do we motivate young learners to produce language and apply their learning in authentic settings? With technologies such as Skype, blogs, wikis, Voki, Voicethread, and Glogster, our young learners can use language beyond the classroom. With Internet technologies, young learners are able to share their stories with relatives and peers worldwide. In this presentation, learn about these amazing Internet tools and see real-examples of young learners having fun sharing their creations.
