Writing is a good way to practice your language skills, as it gives you time to reflect and to plan your text. And time is crucial, especially at the beginning. This applies to both - your first and your foreign language(s). So, write regularly, e.g. keep a log, not only about your feelings, but also about what you learned that day, what you understood, and what should be clarified (see earlier post).

Ich habe bei mindmeister.com für jede Gruppe eine MindMap zum Thema “Lebensmittel” erstellt.

To edit the maps, you have to sign up to mindmeister or have on OpenID. The basic account of mindmeister is free of charge.

When it comes to “e-learning”, I have to think about Christina’s comment: “Fast and dirty”, meaning quickly produced and not well-planned. So-called “rapid learning applications” as screencasts, Adobe presenter flick (formerly known as “Macromedia Breeze”) etc. seem to be very attractive, but somewhat useless, if not well-produced. But could there be a format that is quick, enlightening and (ideally) entertaining?
O’Reilly, the publishing company that gave us the term “web 2.0” and hundreds of clever computer books, organizes a series of events called “ignite“. Everyone can give a talk there. There are no restrictions regarding content. All rules apply only to the mode of presentation:
- Every talk lasts 5 minutes.
- Every presentation consists of 20 slides,
- which auto-advance (usually) every 15 seconds.
Is it possible to get a message across? I think, yes. Here is an example (by Tim O’Reilly):

Ignite has a channel on youtube, where more presentations can be found. I think, these presentations are really great.

I just came across a nice article on the neuroscience of magic on wired.com, featuring some nice videos.

Dear reader,
normally, I blog in English here, but now I decided to note down the experiences we have working with studio d. Therefore, posts in this category will be in German.

Christina Kuhn hatte eine gute Idee, ich sollte doch mal meine Erfahrugen mit studio d systematisieren und ein Blog führen. Da ich nicht noch ein weiteres Blog aufmachen wollte, beschloss ich, dieses Blog einfach auf meinem schon vorhandenen “beruflichen” Blog zu realisieren. Künftig werde ich also die Erfahrungen, die ich als Lehrer mit diesem Lehrwerk sammle, mit Euch teilen.

Hier sind die Tabellen:
