Week 6: Internet Skill, Critical Thinking, and Tools

This week I was introduced to html and other useful tools. Html is a bit intimidating to say the least but very useful and interesting.

I found a good internet site that incorporates lyrics, writing and listening skills to teach Spanish and other languages. This activity is great because I love using music in my classroom, and this website will help me embed music to Blackboard.  My students in this activity will be analyzing and applying information. 

This is what a student would have to do: Choose a song and a level (easy, medium or difficult), play it and type the lyrics in the blank space. The student can repeat the song indefinitely. The song will stop if the student cannot type the correct lyrics. Once the student types the missing lyrics, he or she can proceed.

I had a difficult time trying to layout the video. What I did was first post an image of the site. Because I am not tech savvy, I was unable to link the pic to the website. Here is the link to the website: http://www.lyricstraining.com/play/1822/yuridia/irremediable#

Yuridia, “Irremediable”

I also posted the YouTube video with the lyrics in case anyone wants to hear the song in its entirety.
