Education

Which of the following do you find useful on Edmodo? Contact with teacher - possibility to discuss the problems with homework, that all things related to English are in same place

What kind of internet links have been most useful/interesting for you?

Specifically, which of the extra links that I have posted on the site this year have you found most useful/interesting? (1) Those about vocab building, I liked the links of dictionaries or about idioms for kids. BBC Podcasts It was link about family tree [BBC ‘Who do you think you are?’] and also BBC links. http://phras.in I like the grammer ones - I can practice grammer in funny way. I enjoyed videos as well. Links for Quizlet.com and phras.in. Also iPhone apps bargains. phras.in, Oxford collocations Dictionary, similies list http://teacherluke.podomatic.com/entry/2011-03-15T14_08_50-07_00 when you attached audio commentary to homework - it was very helpful.

Specifically, which of the extra links that I have posted on the site this year have you found most useful/interesting? (2) www.engvid.com, http://rollsoffthetongue.tumblr.com/ and of course the youtube video of Wooster and Jeeves - it was great! The Phras.In tool is brilliant, although it ultimately helps me find new interesting information about phrases and just rarely the right answer for what I'm looking for :D It's like buying clothes you could never expect to spend your money on. I don´t remember specifically, but I think I’ve found all your links very useful. Internet links. Answer keys to exercises from class/homework BBC Podcasts and all links related with the exam preparation http://www.englishcentral.com/ The one with most common words in English. It had a form of quiz. [http://quizicon.com/100-Most-Common-English-Words-Quiz.html] I really enjoyed the oneword.com

Do you have a message for teachers who don't use Edmodo at the moment? (in the students’ own words)

As for myself, Edmodo is a great thing for students and teachers as well. I appreciate extra information which we were given. I would totally recommend it :)

It is very useful for students because if you miss a lesson you can easily find information about homework, etc.

I think it is really good thing. Other teachers should use it as well.

it is good for students who missed the lesson, they can find HW there

Edmodo is amazing and very useful. Sometimes when I couldn’t come to the lesson, thanks to Edmodo I knew what was happening and what was given for homework.

Edmodo provides a whole new experience in learning and it should be used as a essential tool for all teachers and students.

Please use it, your students will appreciate it!

If I miss lesson, it is very useful to see what was the lesson about. And it is great that I do not have to remember homeworks :-)

For teachers who don't use Edmodo: Please try to use it - it is very helpful for ;)

Edmodo concentrates all necessary information on one place, so that students don´t have to ask each other if they have any doubts. They have list of all interesting and useful links on one place.

Please, start to use edmodo and make your students happy :)

You should use it, because today it is better way how you can comunicate with us and share tips, links and opinion :) Young people use internet almost every day and this is more comfortable for us :)

Guys, if you are lazy to create your own system and make studying at your language school easier for students, at least join existing system and learn how to use it!

Networks must be able to transfer data from one device to another with acceptable accuracy. For most applications, a system must guarantee that the data received are identical to the data transmitted. Any time data are transmitted from one node to the next, they can become corrupted in passage. Many factors can alter one or more bits of a message. Some applications require a mechanism for detecting and correcting errors. Some applications can tolerate a small level of error. For example, random errors in audio or video transmissions may be tolerable, but when we transfer text, we expect a very high level of accuracy. At the data-link layer, if a frame is corrupted between the two nodes, it needs to be corrected before it continues its journey to other nodes. However, most link-layer protocols simply discard the frame and let the upper-layer protocols handle the retransmission of the frame. Some multimedia applications, however, try to correct the corrupted frame. This chapter is divided into five sections. ❑ The first section introduces types of errors, the concept of redundancy, and distinguishes between error detection and correction. ❑ The second section discusses block coding. It shows how error can be detected using block coding and also introduces the concept of Hamming distance. ❑ The third section discusses cyclic codes. It discusses a subset of cyclic code, CRC, that is very common in the data-link layer. The section shows how CRC can be easily implemented in hardware and represented by polynomials. ❑ The fourth section discusses checksums. It shows how a checksum is calculated for a set of data words. It also gives some other approaches to traditional checksum. ❑ The fifth section discusses forward error correction. It shows how Hamming distance can also be used for this purpose. The section also describes cheaper methods to achieve the same goal, such as XORing of packets, interleaving chunks, or compounding high and low resolutions packets.

What do successful readers do? As teachers, we’re often guilty of testing our students’ reading abilities through comprehension questions, without actually supporting them to become better readers. But where should we start? How can you move beyond a comprehension focus and help students to become the best readers of English that they can be? What might be stopping them from developing? In this webinar, I’ll aim to answer all of these questions, by looking at what good readers do and demonstrating how to support students to build those skills for themselves. Presented at the 30th PARK conference, Brno, Czechia

http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/eltabb2024 If you’re anything like me, you’ve produced a lot of materials for your learners, whether that’s a worksheet, a PowerPoint presentation, or a video. You’ve also had very little training in materials writing, and have learnt what you know by trial and error, with the occasional bit of feedback from learners, other teachers or maybe even an editor. This is why I put together a competency framework specifically dedicated to materials writing for language learning. In this session, we’ll look at what the framework is and how you can use it to produce better quality materials for your learners.

http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/braztesolmawsig Abstract As teachers, we can feel a difference when we’re teaching from materials which seem to ‘flow’ perfectly compared to materials which don’t. However, when we create our own materials, it can be difficult to find that same flow. In this talk, I’ll show you techniques to make your materials flow, including through the use of scaffolding for productive tasks, and the exploitation of a single exercise in a range of different ways. Bio Sandy is a freelance ELT consultant, teacher trainer, and materials writer. She writes a blog at http://sandymillin.wordpress.com and tweets @sandymillin. She is currently researching the knowledge, skills and attitudes which are needed for effective materials writing, as part of her MA dissertation. Sandy has self-published three books. She has also written for various publishers, including contributing to workbooks for National Geographic’s Keynote series and being a co-author on The CELTA Course Trainee Book and Trainer’s Manual Second Edition. She is an IATEFL ambassador.

http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iatefl23 Recent years have seen a growth in both online teaching and technology use in language education, with an impact on the needs of trainee teachers. This talk will address what trainee teachers need to know, drawing on content from the new edition of 'The CELTA Course' trainee and trainer books, which I have co-authored with Peter Watkins and Scott Thornbury.

http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/ihbucharest21 Bridging the gap between classroom and real-world listening “I've studied English for years, but I can't understand anyone!” This was a common complaint from students I worked with in the UK. Inspired by their problems and the work of John Field and Richard Cauldwell, this workshop aims to introduce you to practical activities and materials you can use to help students transition from understanding scripted listening materials to feeling comfortable with real-world English.
