Dear EFL teachers,
This is our last mentoring assignment - you have time till the end of February to complete it. We connected project mentors to your students via Skype or Google Hangouts. This time, we will bring mentors' voices into the classrooms using online tools.
- Choose one of the topics you will be teaching in January or February.
- Read about how to integrate Voicethread into your classroom here: Engaging Learning with Voicethread and 26 Interesting Ways to Integrate Voicethread.
- Create a student assignment based on Voicethread.
- Show your students several examples of interesting Voicethread projects first. Use these links to select appropriate examples:Voicethread Library, Examples of Voicethread for Education.
- Give clear instructions: how many slides the presentation should have, which vocabulary should be used, how the presentations should be structured, how you are going to evaluate the project, etc.
- Ask your students to post the links to their Voicethread projects on your blog.
- Ask your mentor to leave voice comments to each student project posted on your blog.
- Discuss the mentors comments with your students - what suggestions did your mentors shared with your students through Voicethread?
- Post your comments below, as a reply to this Mentoring Assignment
- Enjoy experimenting with Voicethread!

DeleteDiana, the work of your student seems to be a very inspiring one, and it is so nice she could use the on-line tool you tought them to, and the try she did -- is very important. Speaking about London and showing the pictures is a great achievemnt. Hope the others will do the same. You need to inspire and comment their work indeed. Great and beautiful work!!!
Hello, Emma. Here is the link to the assignment I've just posted:

I'm waiting for my students' reaction and comments.
You see the problem is that I can't make them do it since ACCESS home tasks are not so compulsory to do, compared to the tasks they daily get at school. This is the reason why I have only some of them commenting on my tasks. I try to do my best to envolve them all and hope soon i'l manage to do it. For now I have what I have. I see every day how my attempts provoke enthusiasm in their eyes and inded hope this will come out one day as a complete eagerness to perform my every task.
