GAETI 2015 DAY 13, DIA TRECE SKYPE, TK MARTIN CENTER MSU, ART, WEBQUEST PROJECT. Las Explora' DORAS

SKYPE:
This morning was fantastic, we started with a Skype visit to CHILE, WE MET  Miguel Alarcon a semi-retired Technical English professor in one of their universities. He was proud of the changes that have come about in his country. He expressed how it was now a democratic country. Learning to adjust to the changes that come along with new democracies.. He was very possitive about his beautiful country and fellow citizens. He explained about his country's diverse climate, Hot in the north, medium temps in the middle, and freezing cold weather in the south. He reminded us that they use the metric system there.
I asked about university students and how they fund their education. He said that next year they will be free.\


Today we visited TK Martin Center at MSU
I think that every teacher and administrator should be aware of its existence and the wonder resource that it provides to anyone who has been injured or is born with disabilities.

YouTube
We learned how to record a power point presentation and save it on YouTube


Art was fun

Blogs and Wikis
Blogs is individual work
Wikis multiple participants contribute to the work

WebQuest
We are working on a project that we will be able to use in the fall.
Hope and I are working on a project for Spanish Heritage Month.
We want to use La Voz as our inspiration , and let the students research a person, create a product; a trading card, compete against each other by impersonating that person- selecting one of the person's work and share with the class, they may opt to record themselves with the iPads or place it on our YouTube for our class.

GAETI DAY 8:/DIA ocho: LESSON PLAN, ART, GAMEBOARD.

Hoy es miercoles. Hoy es el santo de mi nietecita Elizabeth. Tiene cuatro anos.
ISTE Standards
Technology planning
Collaborative learning:
 We worked in small groups today, we followed the model given in class. I might incorporate fairytales in Spanish in the reading part, and I would also use this style of research approach in teaching the universal holidays throughout the Spanish world.

SMART Board:
Dr. Huang went over the different things that a smart board does.
I hope one day to have one.
Would be nice to use one. I will continue using my apple tv and my ipad  and projector and laptop to get it done.

Arts and crafts\
It was a nice break away from the computers and lectures. Our students need those breaks also. I personally feel this is great at the end of each semester, especially at the end of the year when the students are testing for hours and they are in and out or our classrooms.

Making board games
Board game idea great, must have alot of time to produce because I am not very familiar with excel, time consuming trying to learn all the right buttons to push. I would probably have the students create them.

Hoy es martes, es el dia del santo de mi madre. Ella cumple 76 hoy.
Today is my mother's birthday, she is 76 years old today.
Today's work in class has made me think on how far we have come in this world. I remember a classroom with no pencil sharpner and having to sharpen my pencil with a knife in class. My poor teacher would guard her chalk because there was not an abundance of supplies for her and her students. Our classroom had some old desks left over from the 50's. And we would have to go home for lunch every day and then come back to class. There were no long weekends because school was from Monday through Saturday. We were so proud of our notebooks covered with newspaper so they would last throughout the majority of the school year.Our uniforms were worn more than once before my mother would have to hand wash them. I went to school clean every day and I was proud of my teacher and our school.

Today we have so many options in materials to work with. Our technology is far more advanced than anything that I had ever dreamed of as a child.

Two of the technology tools that I am most likely to use in my classroom would be the webpage from Weebly and the games from Excel

How do you plan to use these?
I plan on creating a webpage that will have the daily work from class and videos and homework assignments for my students. I would create a bushiness card with the information so that my students and their parents would have the opportunity to learn how to contact me and keep up with our work in class.

Because I am a foreign language teacher, I feel that games are important for my students to engage in real language practice. I am looking forwards to create games for them and create opportunities for the students to create games for themselves and younger children in their communities.
