Al revisar este artículo, me topé con la sorpresa y novedad que de las treinta herramienats mencioandas, de ellas pude descargar un manual sobre elearning que me va a servir para orientar con mayor precisión y eficiencia el proceso de diseño instruccional para la creación de cursos mixtos o en línea.

Making the transition to OERs can be quite daunting as it's not just a matter of accessing open content but repurposing it and digitizing your own to suit your students' needs. I find that using OERs in combination with cloud computing, mobile assisted seamless learning and field trips into virtual worlds, works well with my language students. However, what works within my teaching context may not be appropriate for yours. In my opinion, it's not just about introducing new technologies and pedagogies because they are trending, but doing a thorough analysis of what is needed within a specfic context before transforming your teaching practices, as these transformations  will influence your students' learning environment and learning outcomes.

Four great OER sources provided here for teachers to explore.

Very thorough guide to using, assessing and making ePortfolios happen. Plenty of tips and suggestions for which apps to use and how to digitise work. Nicely presented and easy to follow. Also does a good job talking about the 'why' of ePortfolios. This is the part I find some of my teachers struggle with.

ePortfolios are a great way of collecting artefacts digitally. Have you tried this with your students? 

There are some great links about ePortfolios here. Well worth a look.

Must be something there for us!

Autistic kids need to be shown lots of love and need a teacher who will treat them right.
