Using cell phones in the
classroom when computers are not available (by Fabiana Casella)
by Barbara.
Fabiana Laura Casella is a
passionate English teacher from Argentina, blessed mother of two, and very
interested in ELT, Education, Literature, History, Psychology, Music and being
a Connected Educator. She has been teaching English to all levels of children,
teenagers and adults since she got her Bachelors Degree in Teaching
English as a Foreign Language. Between 2001 and 2008, she moved to the United
States with her family, where she taught Middle and High School ESL and High
School Spanish. Fabiana believes that getting involved in social media and
staying in touch with educators around the world has made her grow as a teacher
tremendously. You can follow Fabiana on Twitter (@FLCasella) and learn
more about her class projects on her blog.
Fabiana wanted to share
her job with other schoolls. Internet and
technology in class has made major changes in daily teaching experience. She got a message from a friend and had the opportunity to write the idea of
high-tech at the low tech. He felt proud and have the support. The first she started at a school that does not have a computer or tablet in the
classroom, there is only a laboratory used for computing its class. So when he decided to ask parents and students agree
with the use of cell phones or smartphones. They answer "yes" Why not ". Actually they are very supportive, and she taught about how to open an account in
Edmodo in order to protect your identity online students, with this she can invite her students download Edmodo and could join her group but mostly some students can not log
in with ease, and the students help each providing instruction in the English
language support and use the target language outside the classroom context
.Since they started using phone her in class her students and she has been working on interesting projects and education together with
other teachers and students throughout in world. In March
2013, I decided to start studying a Specialization in Education and ICT
delivered by the Ministry of Education, so now I have a much more “formal”
tuition. “If there is a will, there is a way” is one of my favorite English
proverbs, and I believe that this is especially true in teaching.
