We thought it might be useful to also add the other group-blogs and e-portfolios from our New Media in Foreign Language Education course. They are now subdivided into the categories other group-blogs, our e-portfolios and other e-portfolio. Additionally you can find a link to the course instructor’s blog in the category blogroll.

Would anybody happen to know how to change the order of the link categories? We’d kinda like to move our e-portfolios up a little bit… it looks a little lost all down at the bottom of the page

Hello everybody! We are going to visit the Alfred-Wegener-School in Kirchhain next week. This school is quite advanced as far as the use of new media is concerned. Therefore, we hope to get some insights into the teachers’ and students’ experiences with the new media. Here are some questions concerning the use of the new media that we might ask the teachers. If you can think of other interesting questions, feel free to write a comment!

  • How long have you been working with the new media?
  • How many computers do you have at your school?
  • Are the new media used in all subjects/ in which subjects are they applied?
  • At what age do the students start to work with the new media?
  • Are there special subjects in which the use of the new media is taught?
  • Does your school cooperate with other schools or institutions, e.g. via email- friendships with students in foreign countries?
  • Are the parents involved? Do you also offer courses for them so that they might be able to help their children (especially in younger grades)?
  • What type of training in the use of new media do teachers receive?
  • Are there “virtual sessions” which supplement the normal in-class sessions?
  • How do the students like working with new media?

Check out the left columnn: we added links to the e-portfolios of our group members :-)

We created a new page listing links we considered useful. Several links can also be found in the blogroll-section. If you know a page that should be added to our list, please post it as a comment. Many Thanx, your tnm09- team.

You might have noticed that we are currently under constructions :-) if you have any questions or suggestions simply contact one of our three administrators or – even simpler – leave a comment!

have a nice day, hope to see you again soon.
