Yes… it’s true. I’ve done quite a few over the last year and I’ll admit it… it’s because they’re just plain fun, and because I love the creative interactions that ensue within the ELT community.
Infographics are great learning materials. The colourful graphics, clear text and their size make them ideal for classroom integration
No 404 here (though hilarious 404 pictures included)
Recently I saw somebody asked a question in a forum, the question is "Which programming language should I learn first?". Then someone answered this question. His answer:
In today’s world, we count on technological advances to allow us to stay connected with the rest of the world. The Internet is perhaps the most useful tool we have for that purpose.
Microsoft has finally released a new programming language in addition to their current suite of languages including C#, C++ and other .NET languages. The language is called Dflat.NET or simply Db.NET. It still uses the .NET Framework as its base. Also known as vNext.NET, this new language features many enhancements that developers and database designers have been looking for in other languages but were not available.
Traveling and unable to speak the local language? No se preocupes (don't worry)! Microsoft researchers have developed a program that will recognize and record your voice then translate it into another language for you.
It all begins here. Suppose someone took every meaningful detail from all the books you love. Every song mentioned, every person, every food or place or movie title. And what if they did that for all the books everyone else loves, too. The ones you’ve never heard of. Suddenly you’ve got a whole world of seemingly random people, places and things, all gathered in one place.
A recent study indicates that online learning is as effective as, if not more, than traditional face to face instruction.
For 50 years, computer programmers have been writing code. New technologies continue to emerge, develop, and mature at a rapid pace. Now there are more than 2,500 documented programming languages! O'Reilly has produced a poster called History of Programming Languages (PDF: 701K), which plots over 50 programming languages on a multi-layered, color-coded timeline.
Julia, a language for technical computing
Facebook, YouTube and even texting will be the salvation of many of the world's endangered languages, scientists believe.
This week, the ‘Teaching and Language Learning through Gamification‘ TESOL EVO session comes to an end. It’s been an enjoyable 5 weeks, with some great live sessions from special guest speakers and lots of sharing of ideas and enthusiasm in the Moodle forums. The TLLG Moodle won’t be around for long, but the highlights of the course will be archived on a wiki,http://tllg.wikispaces.com , which we also hope will be a place that people can share links to lesson plans for online games they have used.
Is public school enough to master a language?
With Duolingo you learn a language for free,
and simultaneously translate the Web.
If you can pronounce correctly every word in this poem, you will be speaking English better than 90% of the native English speakers in the world. After trying the verses, a Frenchman said he’d prefer six months of hard labor to reading six lines aloud.
