  • Great vlog! I love the idea of technology i the classroom. I was big into having my students in Canada create multimedia presentations for school assemblies.

    If my students were older than they are now, I'd love to get into podcasting with them. Problem is, when it comes to education, I think many parents in Japan and Korea as well, have trouble understanding the uses of technology in the classroom. Many parents want the more rote/traditional style of education....a problem!

  • Thanks Kevin!

    Very true about education desires vs. results in Korea and Japan.

  • Great uses of technology!

    One really simple tool I found great was a pre-made jeopardy board for Powerpoint that I found somewhere online. All I had to do was create the topics and questions, and I had a great activity for the last day of lessons before summer.

    Took my Mac Mini in to school, hooked it up to a projector, and everyone had a great time!

    I teach mostly private lessons and I don't have a laptop, so it becomes difficult, but I'm very much interested to use more technology someday.

  • Laptops rule!!!

    That being said, I'd love a Mac pro for editing!

  • It was wonderful chatting to them, any time.

    Thanks :)

  • May have to do it again!

see all

  • I found your video really interesting and got some great ideas, as i am studying teaching and about to start my prac. So thank you!

  • You have done an excellent job integrating technology into your teaching, my hat is off to you. I will use some of your techniques in my future classes. Shifting "old school" thinkers into using social medias as a format of teaching is a challenge that I find myself up against today.

  • Research tools for the young student are endless. Your students are so blessed to have you as a teacher. What cool interactive ways to learn!

  • so intelligent! and SO handsome!

  • Finally, someone who's doing it right. My sweetheart is a distance-educator, and it's odd how resistant the ols school is.

    Nice job.

  • As you know Qi....Korean students love to work in groups rather than alone.

    I teach design from a project based platform here in Seoul. Each semester I divide the class into 3-4 groups and have them create a weblog to record their group efforts and give them a place to store/organize their digital work together. They really invest early, designing their site and also use it for english presentation training as well during the semester.

  • good piece here. i taught ESL in a public school here in california, for 10 years from 1998 to 2005, real bore!! the programs they made us teachers use were just so ridiculously boring. the idea busan kevin mentioned would have been great, if only the public schools would embrace it, without all the red tape!!

  • They do learn more when you get them involved and interacting... Excellent vlog!

  • 20 years is a pretty long time, my mominlaw has been in it for 35..

    praise to you both of you !!

    **Kisses**
