Online test with Google Forms

In this entry, I am going to show you how to use Google Forms for creating tests.

I think that its a great free tool that allows us to collect information efficiently.
As you can see on my example, the form can also be set up as a quiz, so that responses can be graded as we give an answer. It's great because less time can be spent on marking.

As an example, I brought a German language test created by myself for my students. It is made as an addition to the digital material I created. (Also, I am thinking about testing my students this way next week, to see what they can remember of a week later.)
It's for learners who are at least on an A2 level and who would like to practise grammar. It can be used as a warming up exercise as well as a test at the end of the lesson or when the student gets towards the end of the material provided.

In this entry, I am going to introduce Google Jamboard, with the focus on its use during language classes. What is Google Jamboard? Jamboard is an interactive whiteboard developed by Google. It has got a 4K touch display you can use for meetings or presentation purposes. If we turn it on, we can draw on it. Users are able to directly access and edit Docs, Sheets, Slides, and photos stored in Drive. It is a free application, where you can browse, view and share Jams created by you and your teammates. In the following illustration, you can see a Jam Sample, where the body parts are written in French. We can use it during foreign language classes for example in this way: or, we can use it for telling a story creatively: (The illustrations are from  https://teachercenter.withgoogle.com/ ) Jamboard is a great way to boost student collaboration. Those students, who have a tablet f.e. can access a suite of rich editing tools to collaborate w...

Visuality

Hi there! I'm going to show you some visual aids for teaching. First of all, let me show you my conception map: https://mm.tt/1511799882?t=5jXVOVCNk8 The conception map I made helps students to get a systematic overview on nouns as a part of speech. I think, as these part of speech categories are difficult for the first time to understand - even in our mother tongue, and therefore a conceptual diagram could help to organise the knowledge about it, as it depicts the relationship between the concepts. I think it is a good way to stimulate ideas and creativity and for brain-storming. Furthermore, it enhances metacomprehension as students can suddenly start to learn and think about their existing knowledge. To be even more meta, (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concept-Map#/media/Datei:Pinwand-Mindmap.jpg) a mind mapping has been created about mind mapping, which, in my opinion is really funny but at the same time, it helps us to understand what it is. I created a word clo...
