We have just finished the seminar referred to in a previous post. Thanks to Graham Stanley for being our tutor, and Dafne for sharing with us as well. Below you can see a few photos from the seminar and my first try with a new tool (at least for me).

Where I was…

No recent posts! More than 2 months without writing. Busy, busy I have been. Now, as this term has just finished, I can finally take my time to sit and show part of what I have been doing with my students.

I had an “Introduction to Linguistics ” course at university with low-intermediate sts. I wanted them to work with blogs, but again technology at public universities won this round.

Nevertheless, I could manage have ss do something with this tool. They didn’t open their own blogs (as I wanted) so I wrote some posts, and asked ss to comment on them.

To read their comments you can follow this link here , or click on Linguistics in the blogroll. Visit and leave a comment if you like.

At last !!!

Robbie Williams- Angel

I couldn’t help posting ”Angels” video at the time I first saw it. I don’t know what happened to Grouper that took it away from their list.

So I decided to delete what was left and write this instead. I didn’t want to lose my friends’ comments below.

Thanks for your words!

Click and listen.
