how would i use blogs, wiki, Delicious ?
“How would I use
blogs, wikis and delicious with my EFL students?”Don't answer in general.
Specify activities.
The using of
websites such as blog, wiki and Delicious in teaching can be a powerful and
effective technology tool for students and teachers
I would use the
blog to improve my students’ skills like writing and speaking. They will learn
English by writing in English and also writing to each other in English. Maybe
ask them to comment on each other's blogs often. . For example, I will let them
post freely whatever they want and comment on each other posts, students should
post at least two times monthly. Then I’ll give them feedback. Also,
Blogs makes writing and speaking more interesting and fun.
Wikis for ESL
class as a way to introduce information and give assignments, display student
work, and provide students an opportunity to collaborate with other students
learning English in building their own "class wiki" project.
For example, I would divide the class into groups; each group will have their
wiki. I’ll post some topics related to our course, each group will select a
topic and collect information about it, post it in their group wiki and discus
it with their classmates.
Delicious is a social
bookmarking tool that every student would need that we can use to organize and
share our bookmarks. It's the fact that your bookmarks are exclusively valuable
to you personally, regardless of whether they are socially shared. for example,
I would ask my students to make their own Delicious and for each lesson they
have to bookmark an article or a website that they find it useful and
beneficial to our lesson, and share it with their classmates.
Thanks for the tips!
