Just prior to this event, I announced it this way:
It seems like the last one was only yesterday, but it’s almost time for another #learning2gether free online event. Episode 424 takes place at noon UTC today, when Hanaa Khamis interviews Georgios Chatzis, past chair of TESOL Greece as the second of September’s #NileTESOL #PD_Committee and #LTSIG webinar series. This time the topic is

The music of our humanity: Using YouTube videos to highlight social problems
about the DE-desensitization of the YouTube generation to social issues

Where? Zoom Meeting

After the event, Georgios provided us with a list of  YouTube links expanding on
topics he mentioned in his presentation, and more:

In this 5 min. 36 sec. snippet Hanaa notes that she is not herself a great opera fan and how then does George make an opera like Mozart’s Marriage of Figaro appeal to his students.

Hanaa asked George how he managed to make movies like the Shawshank Redemption relevant to his students. This snippet is 6 min 09 seconds. George mentions the element of surprise in his answer, and how this piques their curiosity

Lilika Couri : George in actuality uses the real function of EFL teaching by enabling his learners develop as sensitive and responsible individuals, aware of the various social issues.

Vance Stevens : as in David Crystal’s book Txtng: the Gr8 Db8, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Txtng:_the_Gr8_Db8

Hanaa asked me to go back to this reference later in the conversation, and she extracted a 3 min. 42 sec. snippet from the longer video where I did that and uploaded it to YouTube:

Lilika Couri : No, thank you, Hanaa. I believe I said what I felt was important re. George’s ideas and work.
Lilika Couri : Love your shirt, Vance.

Eman EL Difrawy : Thank you George for sharing!
Mohamed Nagah : We will need a tutorial later

I don’t usually say much during the webinars so Hanaa has taken to check if I’ve been listening by asking me to do a wrap-up toward the end. She made a video snippet of this one, 4 min 44 seconds.

Rethinking Content Creation in Virtual Environments

(Click on the title to access the live Zoom session if you can’t join us in Kitely)

Join us to explore a completely new way of creating learning environments in minutes without any knowledge of building or coding.

We will present 5 example Apps, small focused applications, assembled using our application building blocks.

These example Apps will demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach for enabling educators to focus on educational content creation rather than on the laborious building of virtual environments.

The environments that will be presented have been created to illustrate the application of our tools across various learning domains. Attendees will also discover that our approach is  relevant for Business and Entertainment applications as well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FxW2OyuFtPY

Attendees will win a Garden creation App and a presentation App. The tour will end with a short hands-on practice session in which attendees will be able to create their own virtual learning environments and save the work as a file that they can import for reuse later.

Meeting point is Kitely welcome center from where we will hypergrid to our RezMela Grid.

It is recommended to make a Kitely avatar beforehand in order to travel safely.
