Blogging ... in Action - Carmen Martín Gaite

A blog with at least a page about a beloved Spanish author of mine - Carmen Martín Gaite, as I'm looking for the text of one of her novels with which to create a wordle!

Day 6 Homework bookr

I found this photo album on bookr from a trip to Spain with Spanish annotations. I like the photos as they are very close to ordinary life in Spain. It could be a good idea to use as a realia in the Spanish classroom.




The following is an album I created !




All albums on the bookr site will churn out an embed code when you click on "Blog this" under the album. To make corrections, click on "Recycle this" on the same page.

Day 3 Homework Screencast

I found this art / history on Khan Academy, one of the prolific suppliers of educational videos we learnt in class, which poses an example of how to use Screencast as an educational tool and potentially integrating this tool into one's blog for extracurricular purposes.


1) Sign up for one of the services we looked at today.

2) Create a Screencast sample. (i.e. something that you might be able to use with a class.) Embed the result in a post on your blog and comment on how you could see this working for your class.
