    Hi Andrew that sounds great. What would you like our students to collaborate on?
  • Anne Mirtschin

    Hi Andrew, we are always interested in collaboration activities but which year levels do you have in mind? I really like your wiki.

    Hi Andrew, I am not teaching this year, however I will happily add your invitation to the Israeli Teachers Social Network - Edureshet. To do that I would need to know, what ages/grades are we talking about? Do you have a specific project or subject that you would like to collaborate on? Great wiki!

    Hello Andrew! I'm teaching in 1st and 2nd grade this year. I wonder what grade level you teach. Is there a specific topic you would like to collaborate on?

    I'm just taking a look at your blogspot. The point you make in your last post reminds me of Stephen Bax's discussion on the "normalisation" of computer technology in language teaching.
    Bax, S. (2003). CALL - past, present and future. System, 31(1): 13-28.

    Thanks!

    Hi Andrew, what age groups do you teach.If you let me know then I am almost certain that I can find someone for you. A lot of people think that NZ and Australia are the same, but we are not, and I am glad that you did not assume that!!!

    Hi Andrew!

    Hope you're enjoying the winter break. I was wondering if you, your educator contacts or students would be interested in participating in a nationwide Vocab Video Contest @ MIT university. We'd really like to get more students involved from Illinois

    You can view contest details at BrainyFlix.com Please let me know. Thanks!

    Cool! Yeah, actually there are few great vocab vids on YouTube, it's just that no one has compiled or organized them. That's what we're hoping to do witht his charity event! Getting started is easy, though you should go over the rules first http://www.brainyflix.com/main/contest_rules. Pretty much it's as simple as picking some vocab and making some fun videos. Lemme know if you have any outstanding questions

    Hi, Andrew. There are a number of options worth exploring for getting your high school students blogging, each with slightly different features. A few you might consider include Ning, ePals SchoolBlog, and 21Classes.

    Hi Andrew. Im afraid I am teaching in an international school! But thank you for the idea.
