Fun with the lightboard Posted by: alnomad
Video duration: 53 seconds I had never seen a projection whiteboard before -- ah, technology -- so it's taken a little bit of getting used to. The students usually don't get a chance to do anything with it, so they took advantage at the end of our English class last week. Off camera, two girls were asking me the name for the insect pinched in one girl's fingers. It was a damselfly, I think. Related: asia, esl, korea, teaching, technology |
