ICT - Collecting and sharing

Welcome!

This page is maintained by Helen Myers to contain permanent links to sources of information and resources relating to the use of ICT in Language Teaching.

Core links are in the table below, followed by topics listed alphabetically.

Link Description
Index on ALL London website This page!  I will try to keep it in the same place on the website so the address should not change!
Helen Myers' list of key resources Long list of information and links contained in Helen's presentations in a readable format.   Updated regularly.
The Ashcombe School Video resources Short clips in several languages with interactive cloze exercises
The Ashcombe School free workshops Link to information and downloadable letter.
Helen Myers' blogspot Posts about ICT  written on blog are usually transferred to this website
Yahoo mflresources discussion forum Popular group of 4,000 teachers, mainly UK-based.  If you want to receive resources, you need to select the 'individual mail' option rather than the web-only option.
Twitter Many ICT experts are very keen share their expertise via Twitter.  Use Tweetdeck (or similar) to organise tweets into categories, and make one of the columns

Follow @joedale/mfl-twitterers This is a list of 500 MFL 'twitterers' currently followed by 724 people.

TES forum and resources Sign up to join in wide debate hosted by Joe Dale and contribute to a resource bank, well maintained by Rachel Hawkes

As far as possible I will list the information alphabetically, and date entries so that you can detect what is 'new'.
