This first video points out the positive aspects in 21st century students. It highlights how there is always another person or programme behind a production and the importance of integrating what students learn at home with what they use in the classroom.  Another important aspect pointed out is knowing when to bring technology in and when to put it away. It concludes by saying that eventhough students have a lot of new tools and knowledge, educators still play an important role; as these kids need guidance on how to use their skills efectively in today's society. 

It is an interesting video and it is not  very long or boring. Hope you enjoy it.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c0xa98cy-Rw&feature=related




The second video I would like to share is not about technology itself, but it demonstrates in a very visual way how sharing ideas is important for new ideas to be developed. As sharing is something that the internet has brought to a much higher level, I believe this video is not so far from the technology topic.

 This man has many videos on youtube, I have already watched a few and I must say they are always worth it.

A fun way of learning and practicimg English!


 I've created this video activity for my Pre-Intermediate group.

 Give it a go!

 You are supposed to form the phrases of the lyrics using the words that appear in the wordclouds and add others. I suggest watching one time without writing or pausing. Then you can pause and rewind whenever you need!

 Let me know what you think!
