And, brainstorming with Henry will be a help, too. Perhaps blogs won't be a good "fit" for you. But, you can link videos, audio, and photos to a blog. So, don't give up too readily.<br /> Your colleagues comments were good ones. <br /> Thanks for being in the class and helping make the first day a successful one. At least there was air-conditioning!Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00885226860564605559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1097558702332731873.post-40478883481718213942009-08-17T12:12:54.171-04:002009-08-17T12:12:54.171-04:00Deveres, patos, y plastico - dios mio!

I can set up a blog for my level 3s and 4s who have the tools to be successful using this tech. But what of my lower levels ie: middle school. I want to focus on speaking/comprehension yet how do I do this in a writing based medium? Can we record conversations based on a speaking prompt? No se...<br />Hablamos mas luego!Enriquehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08747488977211244007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1097558702332731873.post-89098183317914186872009-08-17T12:11:39.722-04:002009-08-17T12:11:39.722-04:00Keeping up is certainly an "off-putting"...Keeping up is certainly an "off-putting" thought. We need to just keep telling ourselves baby steps baby steps...and putting things within our contexts and not thinking too big yet. There are a lot of neat things to come in class; some will be more relevant than others...hopefully! :)Sandy Barryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10564820851765490315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1097558702332731873.post-63124385951067921332009-08-17T12:06:51.031-04:002009-08-17T12:06:51.031-04:00As I read your blog, Andee, I think about what Deb...As I read your blog, Andee, I think about what Debbie said about being a "blog consumer" versus being a "blog producer," using blogs to get information instead of as a tool to interact with students.<br /><br />I think the consumer part is more familiar and easy-what I tend to do the most with the internet. Taking blogs into the classroom, being a producer of them, is kind of scary to me. I am afraid I will start something that I won't be able to keep up with....Cristinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15672851741676679700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1097558702332731873.post-35477315511733678612009-08-17T12:01:30.234-04:002009-08-17T12:01:30.234-04:00I understand your feelings about making it relevan...I understand your feelings about making it relevant. I think that once we get to that point-maybe reading others blogs that apply-then it will spark ideas about how we can make good use of the technology.Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00885226860564605559noreply@blogger.com
