Building Community in the Language Classroom


I was privileged to present with Eileen Kiser, Spanish teacher at Parkway West High School, at the Missouri Modern Languages & Modern Technologies Conference (MO3), hosted by the University of Missouri – St. Louis.  At the end of our presentation, we were joined by Ramiro Luna, English teacher from Prepa Tec Garza Sada, Monterrey, Mexico via Skype to describe how he and Eileen have taken community building beyond the walls of their classrooms.

Our slidedeck was accomplished through Google Earth. The KMZ file is available here.

Below is a playlist of the first half of our presentation, covering ways Eileen has used TodaysMeet, Edmodo, and VoiceThread to build a sense of community within her classroom and across her campus.
