Editor's Notes
- #3: Links at the bottom of the page to TaLe.
- #4: TaLe resource collections include interactive learning objects and other online resources;units of work, teaching guidesand lesson plans; video, audio and other multimedia resources. There are 240 resources that are specifically for ESL and many others that can be adapted for ESL activities.
- #5: A blended approach is required in the use of resources found on TaLe.
- #7: There are 132 resources in our Secondary collections that are specifically for ESL. These can found by typing esl in the search box. You can use the filters to find specific types of resources. You can also add various search options (parameters) to restrict your search to a particular KLA, Stage or Collection
- #8: A better and more powerful way to share resources for both students and teachers is to use save codes. A Save code is a five character code assigned to every resource found in TaLe. Save codes are also assigned to resource lists created in TaLe and folders created in TaLe4Students. Save codes provide quick access to one resource or a group of resources:Type a resource save code into the Save code box in the sidebar of TaLe4Students to immediately open the resource. Type a save code of a resource list or folder to view the list of resources.Suggested ways to use save codes with students:Use a save code with TaLe4Students to open a resource or resource list in whole class activities. Create a resources list in TaLe for a particular topic and provide the save code to students. Save codes for resource lists are displayed in My Lists tab of the My Saved Items area. Ask students to create a folder of resource links and use the folder save code to share with other students.Include save codes for individual resources or resource lists in worksheets and assignments.Notes added to Saved resources in TaLe and made public will appear in resource lists shared with students.Teacher feedback is welcome. TaLe4Students has proven popular with teachers and students and looks suited for additional development in future implementations.
- #9: Every resource in TaLe has been assigned a code starting with the letter ‘X’ followed by four letters and numbers like this: X068A. A save code can be found in a search result, on a resource description page or with each bookmark record. Any resource save code found in TaLe will work in TaLe4Students.
- #10: Type or pastea resource save code into the Save code box in the sidebar of TaLe4Students to immediately open the resource.
- #11: Type or pastea resource save code into the Save code box in the sidebar of TaLe4Students to immediately open the resource.
- #12: Find the save code for your resource lists in in the My lists area of My saved items for teachers or the My stuff area for students.Here are some Secondary Lists created for ESL bringing together ESL resources for certain subjects.
- #13: Type or pastea resource list save code into the Save Code box in the sidebar of TaLe4Students to open the resource list for students to access.
- #14: TaLe forums provides online community places for teachers to discussprofessional practice and share resources. Any group of teachers can use TaLe forums. Set up is quick and easy. If interested please contact the TaLe team.
- #15: Yammer is a simple real-time communication tool for organizations. The NSW DET has its own Yammer community (and separate communities within this) where members can ask a question, share news, ideas, documents, and collaborate on projects.
