 * With this reading, I want you to be able to explain the major theories in SLA and give one piece of evidence or reasoning in support of it and one piece of evidence against it. Skip the boring parts, jk, readings in my class never have boring parts! :)**

I am trying to insert my file here, but it won't let me..I'm not quite sure what to do...apparently the file is too big...I'm not sure why, but it says it is. Becca I can't email it either because it's saying that it's too big to do that too...?Qué hago?

In class: [] Well done Carrie! You are so smart! I learned a lot! Thanks for creating and posting this! Sorry we didn't play it in class. We would have learned a lot more if we had played this than watch my ppt. Thanks for being so great!--Becca Proper

Slides on language teaching methods (by Dr. Thompson):

 * 1st hr.:**
 * Chomsky v. Ellis --- No required reading. Carrie, you may take an extra hour to listen to an NPR show of your choice.**

(Note: We only go to about slide 18, where we looked at the handout below)

For this reading I would like for you to do two things: 1. Try to determine if this is quality scholarship. Does it qualify as good, sound research? 2. What does this article teach you about how people try to raise bilingual kids? Are they successful in their attempts?
 * 2nd hr.:**
 * Raising Bilingual Kiddos**

**July 1**

 * 1st hr.:**
 * Read pages 106 (first doc) to 131 (in the second).**
 * This will give you an overview of some of the major methods in FL teaching.**

Note: The link below goes with the handout. In class we watched the videos with examples of each method and then tried to determine if the method met the hypotheses about proficiency. http://hlrc.byu.edu/methods/content/index.html

= Happy Test Taking Weekend. A true yet laughable quote I found while reading! I thought everyone might enjoy it a bit!!! Good luck on the test. =

“IN ALL FORMS AND AT ALL LEVELS OF EDUCATION, OF COURSE, GAIN ONLY COMES AT THE EXPENSE OF A CERTAIN PAIN!”--ENGLE

Has anyone experienced any pain at all this semester?

Yahoo for Study Abroad! Without it, I wouldn't be able to relate so well to these awesome articles, nor would I have these amazing pictures and memories!

**July 31**
Tech - Online v. Hybrid v. F 2 F This is a large study but you only need to read xiii to xviii, then 17-19, then 27-31, then 37-49. Another tip, watch for italics, the authors italicized a lot of their summary sentences. Key Questions, What's better online, blended, face to face? What caution do the author's give regarding their findings in that area? What types of things seem to make digital instruction more effective? What role does time on task play in these studies? media type="custom" key="23548478" Tech - Online v. Hybrid v. F 2 F - Best Practices This article compares online distance education courses to each other to find out what kinds of interactions most helped learning. It's long and probably a bit convoluted, but start reading on page 1259 and go to 1261, then start reading the discussion section on page 1262 through page 1265. Key questions, what do ST, SS, and SC stand for? (Tip: control f to find the definitions :) What was associated with greater learning?
