Teresa Almeida d’Eca has been working with a small group of colleagues that came together through Judy Thompson in LinkedIn. “In November 2013 we met f2f in Lydbury, England, hosted by Rita and Duncan Baker at their Language Center. However, I only met with them through Skype. And we founded the Radical English group.
We believe in a totally different approach to teaching English, in tune with Rita’s post “it’s time to take a radically different approach to teaching and learning English”. Each of us has an area of expertise and we’ve been sparking one another to carry it to the next level. So far we’re more a support group rather than a group with a single project. We spread the word about one another and promote our ventures.
Judy (in Canada) created the EPA: English Phonetic Alphabet. She has published for a few years and is now online and has an app.
Rita in England just published her first e-book, Brain Power. It’s a very interesting read aimed at the education world, above all, at common people. Do take a look! It’s on Amazon (http://amzn.to/19OFwgh).
I just finished proofreading my e-dictionary based on a pronunciation strategy I came up with in class and out of the blue 10 years ago. It’s based on bridging the L1 and the L2. I’ll let you know when it comes out.
The other members are Peggy Tharpe (California, USA), who specializes in pronunciation and accent reduction, Jennifer England (a Canadian in Spain), who’s involved in projects and learning programs, and Judit Tárczy (Hungary), who uses word boards to teach vocabulary to YLs. Each of us is doing work that we enjoy, as you will see in our RE website (http://radicalenglish.com/) in the “All about us” tab. We invite you to subscribe to our newsletter and follow our blog.
I also invite you to visit my own RE website (http://teresadeca-radicalenglish.weebly.com/) where you have more information about my project. Do read the blog and follow it. You’re very welcome to leave comments.”

Mon May 19 00:01 GMT IHAQ#7 Return to EdTech Weekly
Sun May 18 1100 GMT – Hangout with Alexander Hayes – Google Glass in Education
Alexander Hayes has been associated with a number of cutting edge education projects over the years, including exploring the potential of StreamFolio, Talking VTE, POV technologies, Drones for Schools, wearable technologies (and the social implications of surveillance, sousveillance, and uberveillance) and most recently, Google Glass through posting his interviews with 60 Google Glass Explorers on YouTube and hosting the recent Glass Meetup #1 in Canberra.
We’ll speak with Alex about his extensive work in these areas. All are welcome, should be F.U.N.
It might be useful for you all to watch a few of these interviews beforehand – http://goo.gl/bo94t2
There are 45 video interviews at this link, all well worth watching / listening to
Links from Hangout I was unable to copy text from the H/O text chat from my Windows 8 computer (in Windows 7 I could copy the visible chat but could not scroll to copy), so I clicked on the links to open them and pasted them below
May 12 to June 15 – Part 2 of Shaping the Way we Teach English, a MOOC for Language Teachers
You are invited to participate in “Shaping the Way We Teach English: Paths to Success in English Language Teaching“. This is the second course of the series but you did not have to participate in Part 1 to be eligible to participate in Part 2.
This course is a Massive Open Online Course (MOOC). This means that you do not need to log in at any one specific time during the week but you will be given readings, assignments, and discussions questions that are due at a specific time each week. You should log into the course a few times a week to be successful. Registration is unlimited so please feel free to share with your colleagues.
We also encourage teachers to work collaboratively. Many successful MOOC participants have formed facilitation groups. Each individual will still need to submit his/her work online, but facilitation groups meet once a week to discuss the content of the course.
If you complete the course, you will be issued a “Statement of Accomplishment” from Coursera.

Jeff Lebow and his EdTech Talk colleagues Dave Cormier, Jennifer Maddrell, and John Shinker meet every Sunday at midnight GMT in Hangout for their new venture I have a question #IHAQ
I snapped this (coincidentally) just as @alexanderhayes was thanking (unexpectedly 🙂 Vance Stevens and Webheads among others for acting as ‘nodes’ for the event
What Jose, plans to talk about Jose and his colleagues have been using iPads in class since 2012 after Carla Arena got a grant with the first set of 20 iPads for one of the branches at Casa Thomas Jefferson in Brasilia. Now that there are sets in all branches, the teachers at CTJ have done quite a lot in the area of mobile learning and learned to address some of the issues that might surface when one decides to use mobile devices. These are some of things that Jose hopes to share with the community.
Jose is a teacher at Casa Thomas Jefferson in Brasilia, frequent contributor at EVO Electronic Village Online, and travels consistently to conferences around the globe. He is a natural teacher who shares expertise with colleagues worldwide, and it will be interesting to chat with him and share our knowledge about mobile learning and iPads https://twitter.com/joseantoniook

The notice expressed particular interest in competency-based education programs and prior learning assessment for postsecondary education. This session will investigate various ways that open badges provide the basis for alternative credentialing programs.

By time-linking activities that students engage with as the video progresses the content is segmented into digestible components – increasing student engagement and, through our real-time monitoring, informing the next day’s lesson planning. Teachers have used the eduCanon interface in class as a blended tool, assigned students an eduCanon lesson as homework in a flipped setting, and even asked students to create their own eduCanon lesson as a higher-Bloom’s project! eduCanon is flexible to suit the resources and teaching style of your classroom. eduCanon is a FREE web app that works on all major browsers. It works on Macs, PCs, and is even responsive to iPads. You can even embed it into your website or blog!
