Could you integrate other tools, software with mybrainshark to optimise learning opportunities?

Further ideas

‘Flipped’ or ‘Connected ?

What is the ‘flipped classroom’ and what is the relevance to ELT?What are the advantages of ‘flipping’?What are the disadvantages?

What does the ‘connected classroom’ mean?What is the relevance to ELT? To the IFC at CAFA?

The Connected Classroom My idea not common language. We can get students to do much more

interesting things in language outside of the class.

We can use tools like myBrainShark, Eyejot, Audioboo, MailVu to record themselves speaking outside of the class.

The Connected Classroom What we do in class and what we do outside

of the class ( connect them) For example set up and practice a speaking

activity in the lesson but do speaking on own at home and then send it to the student.

It is the CONNECTION that is key. The more preparation work you do, the better the students will do the activity.

Using the tool for: Uploading and narrating: Documents, photos, videos.

Sharing, embedding. and tracking.

How to deal with problems / constraints.

Pedagogy of e-learning.

Review: What have we learned?

Final question:

What is going to work on the IFC at CAFA?

Don’t feel limited to just using myBrainshark, although this is the tool proposed to be used for practising speaking and presentation skills.

Other skills – Reading, Writing, Listening?

Review: What is going to work?

The End.

Good luck!
