Arafo and Güímar's students: handouts for the first activity

I've already started to work with my Arafo and Güímar's students! :) I gave them the hand-outs with the descriptions and showed them how to get to the wiki and listen to the recordings.

I asked them to start at home, so they can listen to the recordings at ease and try to fill in the descriptions. Next week we'll work in groups and share the results.

Activity2: chart -> the participants' data

1- While students listen to the recordings, they can fill this chart in individually, in pairs or groups.

2- There will be empty cells at the end of the activity: that's an amount of information they may ask each other through videoconference, apart from other information they may be interested in knowing about the Greek students.

ACTIVITY 1: Listen and fill in the blanks

1- Students will listen to the participants' recordings and fill the gaps in the right descriptions.
2- We'll print the descriptions, so they can work individually or in small groups, listening and filling in the blanks.
3- We'll check everything in big group, and comment on the vocabulary, expressions, cultural references, pronunciation, and everything related to the recordings and written descriptions.

Let's meet wiki -> Participants' pics

We've uploaded a slideshow with the first photos taken to our students.

"Let's meet" wiki -> uploading files

We're just getting the first activity ready:

1- "My Portrait and Daily Routine" page is designed. There are three sections on each page: "Our names", "Our recordings" and "Fill in the gaps about ourselves".
2- We're uploading audio files in an aleatory way, and the participants' writing, in an aleatory way too.
3- Participants will listen to each recording and fill the blanks, identifying the different speakers.

Application Form ready to be sent

Valérie has sent us all the application form. It's also uploaded onto our dropbox folder AND onto our wiki site.

Today we've printed all documents, Asun has signed them all as the principal, and everything's ready. On Monday morning I'll post OAPEE (our National Agency) and OPEEC (our Local Agency).

Acronym for our project

We've being exchanging emails to set an acronym for our project. We've even created a poll with suggestions and we've been voting.

At last we decided "HELP" which stands for "Helping to Educate Learners with Peer-mentoring". It was the most voted option.

"Let's meet" wiki dropbox

Vasiliki and I are sharing a dropbox folder to upload our students' pictures, recordings and writings.



We're "inviting" our learners to our wiki, as editors, so they can add content to it.

By now, we've taking pictures of them while working on the project and we've got some of their writings and recordings ready.

G2 Section: Group Work

In CEPA Güímar, we've agreed on the "Group Work" G2 section, related to the planned activities to fulfill during October 2013 visit to Tenerife.
