A couple of things you might need while teaching in the future.

This subject has been unique in itself. It has taught us a lot of valuable things that have to do with the implementation of technology in the classroom. The teaching of a foreign language can be demanding and we need to be well equipped with the necessary knowledge to deal with this profession.
I would like to share some things that you might find useful in the future. This are general things  that have to do with editing photos video creation or things that can really save you a lot of time.
1-Video creation is more than necessary when we want to create a real learning environment. I would suggest using oCAM which is a free program for recording videos while in your PC. You can use it's hotkeys to control the recording of the video. When you want to create a video from scratch you should start from google photos. However there might be cases when you want an image from a video playing on Youtube. Then you can use Snipping Tool which is a default program installed on Windows 7 and above.
2-I know that more than once you have wanted to copy something from a web page but it didn't allow you. In such cases you can use Snipping Tool and then type on Google "photo to text converter". This will allow you to work with the text on a doxc format.
3-In cases you want to upload something on Youtube for later use (Prezi) but a copyright take-down might risk all your work again you can use the Snipping Tool and a program for scheduled recording such as Bandicam.
I hope you find this tools useful in the future!
Thanks for reading!

10 Things to Check before Your Project Delivery.

I am referring to those 20 minutes you will be in front of the class as "project delivery". The content is something that must be genuinely yours. I am going to give some advice on how to avoid technological hiccup. 1-Make sure your laptop works by checking it a couple of hours before coming to schools so you won't be surprised by any unexpected boot fail. 2-When using someone's else laptop make sure that all the keyboards work in case you want to play any game online. 3-Turn off the antivirus so it won't delete your file from a possibly infected USB. A laptop format service costs only 1000ALL. And NO! You won't lose any of your data. Data is saved at "windows.old". 4-Always check if your laptop has a HDMI port. If not you have to find an adapter. 5-Check if the videos are shown on projector or not. Press FN+F5 from keyboard and this will make the projector act as the primary screen. 6-Make sure to rehearse everything that you have prepared....

Interactive PPT and Teaching Experience

Image
Do you know that moment when things  get out of control? I can say that this thing has happened with the PowerPoint presentations nowadays. People just overuse it. Nearly all lectures are delivered through PPT presentations and it is becoming more and more difficult to find something genuine. The opportunities PowerPoint used to offer are running dry. Let's say we were surprised seeing a video as part of a ppt presentation but now it has become commonplace.  If one wants to make it as interesting as possible he/she needs a lot of creativity and play with animations, shapes and forms. We must also be extra careful for any technological hiccups.  However if we know the proper way to use it, PPT might result a huge success. It gives us a vast number of possibilities to shift off the traditional way of making a presentation. Using hyperlinks makes your PPT look like a decent web page. With a single click one can switch from the ppt presentation to the desired link...
