Not only we were very delighted to have our guest speakers who made this Virtual Event a special and unique one, but we also had forum sessions that were quite attractive and lively on very interesting topics. I hope you leave this Virtual Conference with the idea that we are connected to the world and that we want to maintain the channel open to learn together how to integrate technology into our language classrooms.<br /><br />I would especially thank all our guest speakers and everybody who gave so much of their time and their capabilities to organize the conference: AVEALMEC and ARCALL members, moderators and the technical supporting team.<br /><br />We are delighted that there have been 672 participants from all continents registered in the Social Networking: Thriving as a community of practice Virtual Conference forums in Moodle. During the twelve online presentations , several key concepts have been shared and conversations are still carrying on in our Forums."<br /></div><div align="justify">Jennifer Verschoor<br />President of ARCALL<br /><br /><br />"Among the concepts that Jennifer mentioned, Etienne Wenger challenges us<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/_60PhD7VmRhE/Svki1KdTaTI/AAAAAAAAA40/-mwHNtDAMmE/s1600-h/Teadira.bmp"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 124px; FLOAT: right; HEIGHT: 161px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5402387524743293234" border="0" alt="" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/_60PhD7VmRhE/Svki1KdTaTI/AAAAAAAAA40/-mwHNtDAMmE/s200/Teadira.bmp" /></a></div><div align="justify">by introducing a key concept that will certainly help us understand the role that teachers need to play in the use of ICT for learning purposes and how technology needs to meet the communities of practice needs and his members and become “technology stewards”, eager to try new technologies and to inspire our learners to be part of our communities of practice, playing a supportive, gentle and yet mentoring role. As Vance Stevens said in his e-talk, “knowledge dissimenates through communities and networks”. So, let´s put our 2 cents in our communities! Soon we´ll see many cents coming and going!<br /><br />I would also want to quote George Siemens when he said “the limits we´ve known in the past are no longer limits” and that´s true. If that weren´t so, we wouldn´t have spent 4 wonderful days with prominent presenters like the ones we had, who agreed to share their experience and knowledge with us on a voluntary basis. In spite of budget restrictions, timing and geographical differences, we were brought here together with a common interest, with a common goal: to help each other grow by making connections and through activating knowledge.<br /><br />Finally, I would like to finish with a combination of Nik and Nicky Hockly`s talk “Teachers are like sharks. If they don´t move forward, they die.” Let`s keep moving in this wired and socially connected world."<br /><br />Teadira Pérez<br />President of AVEALMEC<br /></div>Evelyn Izquierdohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00563019495204776918noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1756612761237545518.post-79209183802695507172009-11-10T00:13:00.000-08:002009-11-10T00:27:28.313-08:00Tour to Ciudad Bonita<p align="left"><object width="400" height="300"><param name="flashvars" value="offsite=true&lang=es-us&page_show_url=%2Fphotos%2F23328459%40N07%2Fsets%2F72157622648055147%2Fshow%2F&page_show_back_url=%2Fphotos%2F23328459%40N07%2Fsets%2F72157622648055147%2F&set_id=72157622648055147&jump_to="><param name="movie" value="http://www.flickr.com/apps/slideshow/show.swf?v=71649"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><br /> <embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://www.flickr.com/apps/slideshow/show.swf?v=71649" allowfullscreen="true" flashvars="offsite=true&lang=es-us&page_show_url=%2Fphotos%2F23328459%40N07%2Fsets%2F72157622648055147%2Fshow%2F&page_show_back_url=%2Fphotos%2F23328459%40N07%2Fsets%2F72157622648055147%2F&set_id=72157622648055147&jump_to=" width="400" height="300"></embed></object></p>Evelyn Izquierdohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00563019495204776918noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1756612761237545518.post-39125020496630038562009-11-10T00:09:00.001-08:002009-11-10T00:11:36.897-08:00Before and After Twitter: Personal Learning Environments by Graham Stanley<img style="WIDTH: 0px;

Our honorary members Nicky Hockly, Gavin Dudeney and Graham Stanley were also very active at the conference and made excellent presentations.

I went with four of my Venezuelan colleagues and we did enjoy the astonishing places of historical Cardiff. The conference itself was outstanding – a great variety of parallel sessions. Unfortunately, I could not attend all the sessions I highlighted in the programme: there were so many people that conference rooms were full even before the sessions started. </em><a href="http://iatefl.britishcouncil.org/2009/forum" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><em>Cardiff Online</em></a><em>, then, represented a stupendous alternative for me. I went online to listen to recorded sessions and to read forum discussions. One of my colleagues, working with me in AVEALMEC, was moderating two forums in the Learning Technologies area. It was also great to observe my MA students taking part in different forum discussions.<br />I consider that Cardiff online 2009 is a fantastic initiative because it gives communities of practice worldwide the opportunity to share and exchange ideas related to different state of the art topics. I am thrilled to announce that Cardiff online will continue for a year. The discussion, then, will go on". </em></div><br /><div align="left"></div></div><div align="left"></div><div align="left"></div><div align="left">Thanks, Teadira!</div><div align="left">If you all want to have further details about our members' presentations, you are cordially invited to read our next Newsletter issue.

It was a presentation offered to participants of the blended course "21st Century for the EFL Class" currently carried out by Professor Doris Molero at Universidad Rafael Belloso Chacín, Maracaibo-Venezuela.<br /><br />This course, sponsored by <a href="http://integrating-technology.ning.com/">Integrating Technology for Instruction and Learning</a> and led by Nellie Deutsch and Doris Molero, is being supported with live presentations every Friday by <a href="http://www.webheadsinaction.org/">Webheads in Action </a>members.<br /><br />It was not only a real pleasure to work with Jennifer again, but also to share knowledge and experiences with colleagues from all over the world.

We had around 120 participants from all over the world, which made it a very interesting teaching and learning experience.<br /><br />For the instruction, we used several Web 2.0 tools, such as: Yahoo Groups, Tapped in, WiZiQ, Voicethread, Skype, Twitter, Blogger, Wordpress, Slideshare, Toastmaker, You Tube, Teachertube, Google search, Google docs, Diigo, and Polldaddy, among others.<br /><br />Here are some slides that show a little bit what we did in our first online, hands-on workshop.<br /><br />Evelyn<br /><br /><span style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; WIDTH: 280px; DISPLAY: block"><div align="center"><embed height="238" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" align="middle" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" width="280" src="http://assets.bubbleshare.com/swfs/player.swf?20081205191222" flashvars="rss_feed=http://www.bubbleshare.com/rss/570450/feed.xml&border=true&size=268x201" allowscriptaccess="always" bgcolor="#ffffff" quality="high"></embed></div><span style="DISPLAY: block;font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:9;" ><span style="font-size:78%;">BubbleShare: </span><a style="FONT-SIZE: 100%" href="http://www.bubbleshare.com/"><span style="font-size:78%;">Share photos</span></a><span style="font-size:78%;"> - Easy </span><a href="http://www.bubbleshare.com/"><span style="font-size:78%;">Photo</span><span style="font-size:100%;"> Sharing</a></span><br /></span></span>Evelyn Izquierdohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00563019495204776918noreply@blogger.com1
