Visual aids in the classroom
This is a point I've been trying to make since I started at JLS: use visual aids such as videos or PowerPoint to explain vocabulary and other concepts to students. I've tried to do this on my own in the past, although I have gotten away from it because of the lack of equal access to computers and projectors in each classroom.
Nevertheless, there has never been a better time for CyberJLS to start doing something for us native teachers. Why not create a CD-ROM specifically for teaching the vocabulary from our various textbooks, perhaps with some animation? Why not make posters to place on the classroom walls? Perhaps they could go so far as to create video segments to model language usage. CyberJLS already does much of this kind of thing for the Korean teachers. It bothers me that the native teachers get so little consideration in this regard.
