So far, the most useful resource for me has been the online video resources. As a language teacher, it used to be difficult to find authentic materials for the students to use. With the technology today, students can see commercials, movie clips, news broadcasts, and music in the target language. It makes learning a second language more "real" and exciting for them. I want my students to hear other francophone speakers in order to hear the various dialects and help them improve their listening skills and overall comprehension of the language.
I believe that I will also use my delicious account, as well as begin more blogging as a way to communicate with my students, and facilitate discussion outside of the classroom.
