Hands-on session

They say we always remember much better by experimenting and doing things by ourselves than being simply told or shown . So we have devoted it our morning session to a "hands on" practical session in which participants would sit and work on different work stations.  Each station reprenting the different technologies we had seen so far Quizlet, Grammarly, Kahoot,You tube, ThingLink, SnagIt and Catasia. Thes two last ones are ideal to record videos and a useful tool to screencast as a means to provide  feedback.
We had a go at creating activities with each of the technologies, opened our own accounts and helped each other with the most advanced features of each programme.
For more information and tutotials on the different technologies see Tools and Technologies in this blog .

This is a video I recorded of the class with my mobile phone, uploaded in Youtube channel and shared with my classmates in edmodo as an example of the multiple teaching possibilities having a YouTube account offers. You can see how hard Russell and my colleagues worked. It was all done in the blink of an eye, so next year I am going to record my students and upload them to my YouTube channel, provided they don't mind me dong it.
