Paving our learner’s way to autonomy
Technology is not the only, nor the most important thing in teaching today but it is definitely playing a crucial role in this new teaching-learning era.
The reason why I find this issue important is closely connected to this video:
The same as eating habits are changing our students are now exposed to speed in a totally different way
For the class to be engaging, we must use the same channels they are normally connected to, but how?
The answer to this may lie on variety, speed, IT and content (beyond language), among others.
Let’s remember...
“Interactive whiteboards can improve teaching and
learning by helping learners understand new concepts and
by increasing learner involvement and motivation”
Using web-based resources in whole-class teaching
Showing video-clips to help explain concepts
Demonstrating a piece of software
Presenting learner’s work to the rest of the class
Manipulating text and practising handwriting
Saving notes written on the board for future use

To revise important vocabulary, prepare a file with a few words on a page. Each word is then completely covered with coloured blobs, stripes or even pictures so that children cannot read it. During the lesson, use the rubber tool to slowly reveal parts of the word. As the word is being revealed, children are challenged to write the word (if they can guess what it is), and its meaning.
This is a wonderful (free) piece of software (which can be downloaded here), which is perfect for the interactive whiteboard. It is based on the Channel 4 TV show and children really enjoy using it - they simply use the chosen numbers to find the target number within a given time limit.
