If you always use certain websites, an easy #hack is to set all of them to open when you start your browser. In Edge Chromium, go to settings - on start up - open a specific page or pages. The procedure is similar for other browsers. #teachertips#efficiency#timesaver
We don´t tend to do a lot of seasonal decoration at #DA-IS, but on a whim I decided to put up the #Christmas pictures sent by @linguascope. In just two hours they´ve generated a lot of positive response, even having #Hindi added to the translations!
@Larryferlazzo Thanks so much for this post. I am embarrassed to admit that I had completely missed the new Flickr terms of service and I have thousands of old photos there that I need to transfer before they get deleted!
While clearly focused more on #elementary#schools, https://t.co/5ovqlKCyan gives another #free option for on the go memorization of simple facts. It could be particularly useful for language learners. @educandydotcom #teaching
No #languagelearning lab, no problem. Especially if you are teaching a popular language like #Spanish. There are many free, quality resources available online such as the outstanding listening activities at https://t.co/gD1vvV6jyV #enseñanza#Teaching#Mumbai#DAIS
Two good sources for #Spanish language practice are @quizlet and @VideoEle. Today my new #IBDP students really enjoyed using both to study numbers and subject pronouns. #EdTECH@jaltcall
As #laptops become the new norm, so do expensive and painful work related repetitive stress injuries. Raise the height of your screens and attach an external keyboard and mouse to make a healthier workstation at your desk. #ergonomics#edtech
This is just #terminology, but I disagree with overly broad examples of formative #assessment. In order for it to be #formative, there MUST be action taken as a result. If it is formative for the #student, it must directly be for the students' benefit. @dylanwiliam#education
While there are many online ways to do this, a fun way to put #students in #Random groups is by placing #Stickers on practice sheets before handing them out. Once they have their sheets, tell them to get together with those with the same sticker. #teachertips
Hey @rmbyrne I really appreciate how over the past few months you've started to recognize the value of many of the quality #free options offered by @MicrosoftEDU for teachers. #Google continues to be a good option but it's best to know the options. https://t.co/7CjsxmegIQ
If I could truly be free of #advertisements, there's a reasonable chance I would pay. What I DON'T want is the #cable TV absurdity in which I pay AND get #ads. The psychological impact of an $11 Facebook subscription https://t.co/y52DqsSr5e
While I have many complaints regarding the logic and the efficiency of the residency extension process, the woman who attended me at counter nine in the #Mumbai#FRRO office today was an excellent representative. #CustomerService#India#immigration
@rmbyrne @padlet The relatively new notion that everything on the internet should be #free is what has us buried in #annoying ads. Someone always has to pay the bills: government (tax payers - you), the author/developer (charitable gift) or a business (to sell you OTHER stuff).
A class #Instagram, #Twitter, #Facebook page can be amazing tools for increasing #student engagement, but to avoid #problems it's important to have clear guidelines for use. If your #school doesn't already have rules, make your own and share with authorities before starting.
I have two first grade classes in #India that would like to do a joint @skype @SkypeClassroom call with an English speaking first grade group in the #UnitedKingdom for #EarthDay2018 . Can anyone help us connect?
