After some consideration I have decided to build a Moodle site around a Spanish 10 curriculum. Several years ago, after I had started my current job in the technology department, I was asked by the director of instruction to apply for a .25 Spanish teaching job as the full time teacher was going on sick leave and I was the only qualified person to take the class. So two days before the beginning of the 2nd semester I began to prepare to teach Spanish 10 (on the side of my current full time job). Walking into the job I took one look at the text book and decided that I wanted to create my own textbook, so in the evenings I began to develop my own textbook, complete with activities and worksheets. I have decided to move that textbook into the digital age and will be recreating each of the modules. I am looking forward to finding new ways to present the materials using different digital tools. I can see resources such as the soundboard being very useful in a language class – as means of presenting recorded sounds from the instructor and capturing student progress. I’m very excited! I’ll keep you in touch with how it goes 🙂
