December 2013 Treasure Hunt

Hello and welcome to my very last Treasure Hunt column. This month,
I’d like to introduce a new presentation and project tool, list up
a few sites with lists of resources, and then say farewell.

First up is a site that deserves special mention: Buncee. It’s a
web tool that allows you or your students to create and share
multimedia projects on the web. It is easy to learn, easy to use,
and allows you to embed video or audio in slideshow presentations.
http://www.buncee.com/education

Since this is my last column, I’d like to leave you with some links
that you can continue to explore on your own.

Hello everyone. I hope you are all surviving the heat. I'm busy
getting ready for the national conference right now so I haven't had
time to go through all my monthly links and think of a theme.
Instead, I'll just pick a few good ones from my list and pass them
on to you.

It's July again. And for some teachers that means the end of classes.
Summer is a great time to explore new technology that you might want
to introduce in your classes in the fall. This month I'd like to
give you some suggestions for things you might want to check out
over the summer.

June 2013 Treasure Hunt
Self-access

Hello everyone. This month’s column is about learning―self-
accessed, self-paced, self-driven learning. To get started, please
take a look at Josh Kaufman’s March, 2013 TED talk.

Yes, it’s overly simplistic, but the optimistic message is that
when it comes to acquiring demonstrable skills (yes, even language
skills), 20 hours (or 45 minutes a day for a month) can be enough to
make serious progress. Of course, it’s not just the amount of time,
but a focused learner can do a lot. With that in mind, I’d like to
introduce some places where language learners might want to apply
their 20 hours. Readers of this column are aware of many sites that
can be used for self-study. English Central, Elllo, Quizlet, and TED
-Ed are some of my favorites that just keep getting better and
better, and if you are not familiar with them, go now and check them
out!

Twitter as a PLN / PLE

A Personal Learning Environment (PLE) (sometimes called a Personal
Learning Network (PLN)) is a collection of connected resources (
people, blogs, journals, etc.) through which a person manages his or
her own learning online. In other words, it is a set of online
connections to help a person learn whatever they are interested in.
Recently, most people seem to be connected via some social
networking services (SNS), usually including Twitter, along with
blogs, webzines (such as http://paper.li/), or curating sites (such
as http://www.scoop.it/). This has created a level of connectivity
and quick transfer of information that is surprising compared to
even five years ago.
