Google Spreadsheet

Another example of using Google Docs is this spreadsheet. This is the student's schedule at the school where I work back home. I share the schedule with the other teachers so we can all edit it according to our daily and weekly classes.
Here you can view the spreadsheet.

My Virtual tour

My virtual tour covers 4 Arab countries. Then I asked the students questions about the countries, like mentioning some cities in that country, the number of populations.. etc. 

The students will be required to do a virtual tour like this, referring to countries they have visited and would like to visit in the future, and add comments about the country on each stop.

Here is my tour.

My Wiki Lesson

My Wiki lesson is about teaching beginner students the Arabic letters. I used ktwelve.wikispaces.com.
You can view the lesson here.

Webquest

This is my webquest. I used zunal.com to create it as I found it easy and very well organized.
The students will do their research on one of the famous characters who was an author. They already have a news about him in their text book, but they don't know about him. So, their task is getting information about him, his life, and his works.
This is my webquest.

Screencast- Roots of Arabic words

This only a sample of a screencast that teaches the students the roots of Arabic words. I haven't tried the screencast before, but I drew that chart with more explanation on the board in class and they enjoyed it, and now they can get the root of any word, & also from the root they can form words. This can be an assignment for them to do, I give them the root then they have to form the words or vice-versa.
You can see it here :)

Podcast

My Podcast was that I asked the students, (Beginner level of Arabic), to create simple sentences using the vocabularies they have studied, then record them with their voices. The main goal of recording, was to make them improve their pronunciation and to be attentive in pronouncing each word. Also, I could later play those recordings in class, and let them listen to each others' and recognize what the person is saying, and correct their pronunciation together. We used Aviary for recording.

Evidence of Networking Participation

My network participation was through the discussion board, sharing my opinion with my colleagues and asking for their help:

I am also following many of their blogs and have their pages in my RSS:

I always learn from them and get ideas from the work they do. I commented on some blogs, like:

Cristin, Bill, Kim, Kim, Karen.

Another Web2.0 tool- Quizlet

I found another web2.0 tool, it is called Quizlet. This website allows the students to create vocabulary lists then test themselves, they can view them as flash cards, & they can play word games. The teacher also can create the vocabularies and share it with the students or with other teachers. You can share it on Facebook and Twitter too. This does not apply only to language teachers, but to all teachers who use definitions or word matchings. I think you can utilize it according to your field.

In my case, I asked the students to create their own vocabulary list and use it as a way of studying and memorizing the words, in addition, to test themselves. And from my side, I also create new vocabulary lists that are related to the lessons and share them with the students.
