 Posted: Wed Dec 07, 2011 9:21 pm Post subject: The Use Social Media as a Teaching Tool |
 |
|
Beyond some of the posts about the use of Twitter, has anyone else used social media as a teaching tool? Specifically, I am seeking information about Facebook and Youtube.com. I would be open to other forms of social media as well. I use them in my non-ESL classes and I would like to learn how to adapt the uses of these social media in ESL classes.
Thank you,
D. Miller |

I've used Twitter as a plot creator to come up with random story lines for my ESL students who need ideas.
You give each individual a un-changing role eg. pupil 1 has to construct a sentence that adds to a plot using a 'woman' or 'car' or something else... so you form a micro-blog/story.
