No pressure
After pressuring myself to come up with activities to immediately use in my classroom that would apply these new technology tools, I have decided that it suits me best to continue to practice at each new class, process what I'm learning, and jot down notes and ideas to go back to once I see what all is out there. I know for sure that I am drawn to blogging, VoiceThread, and Google Docs, but the "how to apply to make meaning" part is where I'm still struggling. I know it will happen, I just don't know when or how! Perhaps next week? Perhaps October? Definitely by the end of the school year!

I definitely understand the pressure :) Start small, and work from there . . . You are doing the blog for this class, and I know you post to Homework Now . . .so maybe just start a language blog of your own, and have your students check it out every now and again . . . or maybe a current event from Spain or France to talk about on the blog . . . the wheels are a turning :)

Taking time to find meaningful applications is really important, Andee. For now, it is great that you are open to trying new things. Just have fun!!
