Draw kids out of their seats with a variety of engaging, playful activities that support communication and self-expression. Add fun tools to your toolbox, whether you are using a Smart board or just a chalkboard! Make technology work for you: each activity will be presented with a high and low tech option.

A few points to consider when incorporating low and high tech activities/techniques:
• We live in both high and “low” tech worlds, so we should learn in both.
• Digital natives (are they here yet?) need help negotiating effectively between the real and the virtual worlds (moving in both directions)
• Offer low/high tech choices for assignments/assessments (differentiation/learning styles)
• Have back-up plans when high tech fails you• We can’t use high tech optimally if we haven’t
mastered effective low tech approaches

A few points to consider when incorporating low and high tech activities/techniques:
• Objectives come first, technology second• Capitalize on our most important resource - one another
(humans together)

Three modes: communication in context
• Cognitively engaging• Intrinsically interesting• Culturally connected• Communicatively purposeful
(Curtain, Sandrock, Clementi)
Technologically-mediated communication should also follow these four points

Remember when incorporating low and high tech activities/techniques:
• Communication, Cultures, Communities, Connections, Comparisons take place in both grounded and virtual realities!

Creating community: capitalizing on what the real
classroom, face to face instruction can offer
Speaking the target language via string and cups/play phones vs telephones(Interpersonal Communication)
Differentiated instruction:-learning styles (VARK) -giving choices for assignments/assessments

Low & high tech storytelling
• Group 1: Backdrop/Scenery– Half the group describes the scenery, while the
other half draws it• Group 2: Dialogue– Half the group chooses two characters (from the
toys on the table) and comes up with dialogue (2 quotes from each character) and dictates the dialogue to the other half of the group (who writes it in the dialogue bubbles)

Presentational Speaking:Vocaroo
High-tech with little to no learning curve
(user friendly)
Note: High-tech should not be used for the sake of it being high-tech, there must be an additional reason for employing high-the (as opposed to low- or no- tech) techniques. Objectives come first, technology second.

Learning stylesWhy do some students expect online tests/workbooks to teach them? They don’t approach high/low tech versions in the same way.
How does the format affect their resistance to/engagement with corrections? (ie. Does one format give them more time to reflect than another?)
What is the interaction with the format and how we assess the 3 modes?
On paper they take the time to go back and correct their work but online they don’t go back?
Pen and paper movement
