In a beautiful film, we learn how exciting the work of Foley artist is . The program with the mouse makes it possible (also available as a podcast ). A bit skuril it may seem to mind when you see act Norbert Schlawin , but it's also fun and pleasure to do it yourself. A beautiful radio show for noise-making is also available at the Bavarian Radio.

together with the computer that is quite simple: Garage Band (Mac) or Audacity (Mac, Linux, Windows) can record the hand-made noises and cut easily. How this works, I have explained elsewhere before.

This suggests a nice project to develop, such as in these students in Nuremberg. Tension may also direct the sounds to make for a small live theater performance like this foley artist . A 1x1 of the noise-maker also provides the sound surfers in the Wiener Zeitung . For your own information (or the teaching of English in high school) is also offers the story of Jack Foley . Even a visit to the foley artist can be helpful. As an introduction to teaching younger students is certainly the DIY of noise puzzles.

Moodle - a learning platform with unlimited possibilities

A learning platform for use in the classroom must be some essential requirements: they should support and promote essential goals of teaching, and simplify its charge and without any commercial purpose. This is so only in moodle the case, as lo-net is free, but not without commercial background.

But the learning platform will be chosen ? The Baden Wuerttemberg state academy for teacher training, says: " schools that have more extensive rights and seriously want to get involved in the experiment, E-learning, with a platform like moo dle probably better off. "That's right! But what do I have to take me" seriously on the e-learning experiment "involved How do I get a separate moodle?

To try out moodle, I recommend that teachers on the site of the Association moodleschule eV to have set up a course. It is free for teachers. If it is found that the school would total work with Moodle, should be in the test stage e ine institutional membership of the school in association As a member is a complimentary . Schulmoodle provided you stay long at work with moodle - I entertain no doubt about it - can we also consider to have run its moodle as a local data center .

on moodleschule page , but also in the Bezirksregierung moodletreff OVERNMENT Dusseldorf can see many Moodle courses that make it clear what work means not only long-term relief moodle.

If you want to work with Moodle, there are a variety of free materials. For the introduction is the free, but premium recommended Moodle manual for teachers . Is it clear to the possibilities that moodle opened in moodle-self-study course explained. Here you learn everything online has to offer moodle - from the perspective of teachers and students from view. Nice is it - despite the confusion - that moodle is used in which the material is collected. In an article for practice history I have explained for the history lesson on how to use moodle.

Ready moodle-courses can be stored easily by the way, exports and re-use in other Moodle.

podcasts in history lessons

Listen to the radio sometimes Today in the Deutsche Welle, the Forum of Contemporary History the NDR or the time signal in WDR and NDR? Already 60 seconds history SWR or the calendar page the Bavarian Radio? Also find that these programs are often well made and bring a historical situation or personality, is an important invention or central grouping appropriate to the point?

be in class to those radio shows with you. You need not even have to take them - before you sat in front of the radio and waited for the moment when the announced time signals began. Today you can download the Hördatei burn on your computer, a CD and then you can file the hearing in a classic classroom use, such as a school entry. Even easier it is when you get the file to your MP3 player or cell phone, connecting boxes, ready.

is possible, however, that the students listen to the file online yourself. , You can simply give them the link. In a learning management system like Moodle use is even easier. , Download the file as a teacher high in moodle or place there a link to each radio station. Students can now listen in class or as homework the mission and possibly even edit a task to do so (see picture).

One advantage of many: To be nachgehört again, each student can individually in the Hördatei back and jump, can simultaneously hear and listen carefully. Who would not generate its students?

Kates Playgound Top 10

are some audio books for the school there for free - who wants to can even self-publish an audio book

For the central high school in North Rhine-Westphalia, the students read in different vintages Fontane's Effi Briest and the Törless. In addition, baroque poetry or love poems by Heinrich Heine and Others.

Not to mention the fact that poetry, because they are beautifully presented, often make a lasting impression, even some many novels can be found online: at LibriVox. "LibriVox provides free audiobooks from the public domain, so copyright-free texts." Where they come from texts? Now, users create them themselves, the quality is far too extremely different. There are first class spoken texts - my current favorite is Stevenson's Treasure Iceland - but also more consistent shots, both in terms of technical quality but also in terms of pronunciation and intonation.

It's great that there are texts in any language that can be used for teaching foreign languages, English, English, French, but also from less common languages in the classroom. It's also nice that the text were always recorded by native speakers, it is even Latin and Esperanto. For high school students who Listen to your readings would like, it is possible to do that for free here. There are shots of Effi Briest, by various works of Heinrich Heine or Gryphius and much more.

Who wants to bring his students to real excellence, of course it can - for example by using garage band or audacity persuade themselves to produce something and submit . Of course, only with lyrics that are no longer protected by copyright. Poems were a beginning, a story not bad, a novel is a real challenge!

A tip for the iPod / iPhone users: There are a small app, with all the books directly on the road and can be heard on the wireless.
