We already have the website of our project finished and we’d like to share it with you.

The goal of Bablingua is to offer good audiovisual materials filmed in Hispanic countries that can help teachers to enrich their classes. In the website there are short videos, long videos, vocabulary cards and a blog with free activities, games and new ideas for the foreign language class.

Please, visit us at : www.bablingua.com, and let us know your opinion, comments and ideas you have to improve it.

Alvaro and Laura

I'm just getting started using wikis in my Spanish classroom & you have given me some great ideas! Thanks for sharing your wiki & your student's wiki with us.

At 1:25pm on July 18, 2008, Karen Fasimpaur said…: That's great. Congratulations. I think a make-your-own-wiki workshop is a great way to get people excited about using this technology. With technology-reluctant people, personal applications (eportfolios, wikis for their own workshops, even hobby-oriented stuff, etc.) are very engaging.

At 12:39pm on July 17, 2008, Shirley Davis said…: Lisa, you've inspired me, reminded me why I actually took this job and I am going to work on it with your help this coming year. I want our teachers to use the internet to the students benefit and hopefully move them away from traditionally teaching.

At 9:20am on July 14, 2008, Karen Fasimpaur said…: I enjoyed reading your thoughts on "preaching to the choir," etc. Your wiki project sounds great. I had a similar experience with kids this year where I saw them really engaged in something and thought about how much that kind of engagement can change learning. I hope you do present your work at foreign language conferences -- more people need to see the power of engaging classroom projects.

but not added anyone/or much yet ...
no suprise there then!! especially after yesterdays lesson
and last few weeks riduculous

Thanks! for your comment- interested what you said
so i feel i have little or no help in my school and for/ to think other places at least in UK, with league tables - academies in place in High schools
prus (pupil referal units)... so how is the foreigner or native speaker
suppose to pick up the threads and assist the kids. in the first place with a teacher whos both inadequate within his/her teaching and speaking a fair standard of english??

and some TEACHERS now or wwere looked at upon with pay (performance) related pay - its really a sad ( for me)
and very awkward situation being...an individual native English speaker (with teaching exp at home, but not qualified)
IF you have any advice following your comment on bulllying let me know
also ive had some info/advice from somone else on here

You can also teach us how to use wiki spaces. I am wondering if we can write a collective grant for the magazine ¿Qué tal? for the SPN I classrooms next year. Just a thought!!

At 6:36am on March 7, 2008, Elizabeth Heiser said…: Thank you for the invitation. Now I just need to figure it all out and how to use the concepts.

At 8:59pm on February 29, 2008, Cynthia Medina said…: I like what you're doing with your wiki and your student's Spanish is pretty good. Kudos to you.

At 1:25pm on February 26, 2008, Jim Lerman said…: thanks for writing, Lisa. I look forward to communicating with you.
