Marisa_C 2017-01-25T18:09:30 Looks like we'ill be talking abt teaching with #WhatsApp -inviting anyone who has used it to join our #ELTchat in about an hour or so.
cecilianobreelt 2017-01-25T18:11:58 @ELTchat #ELTchat love Whatsapp! That was the idea I sent to Pearson ELT awards :) https://t.co/ejGnQwJK6C
cecilianobreelt 2017-01-25T18:14:17 @ELTchat we discussed it in a teachers' group ( sorry the group is closed but anyone is welcomed to join https://t.co/rzJDPAcCtr ) #ELTchat
cecilianobreelt 2017-01-25T18:16:59 I like to use provocative/funny images to spark discussion. @ELTchat  #ELTchat https://t.co/U6nvDcb3t4
Marisa_C 2017-01-25T18:21:11 @cecilianobreelt  Can you join #ELTchat in abt 40 minutes? #ELTchat we would love to have you participate and share ideas on #WhatsApp
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T18:38:55 Teaching with Whatsapp - Join #ELTChat in 20 minutesAll ideas welcomed :-)
naomishema 2017-01-25T18:53:43 @sigardit There's going to be an #ELTchat about teaching with WhatsApp - U run such a program, do come & share! At 21:00
teacherphili 2017-01-25T19:01:25 Evening. Away from my laptop tonight. But got Tweetdeck fired up on iPad and ready to lurk & maybe send the odd tweet #whatsapp #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:01:48 Who's ready for #ELTChat?
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:02:49 @teacherphili I have never used Whatsapp except for quick catch up at IATEFL #ELTchat
teacherphili 2017-01-25T19:03:37 I started using it 3 months ago but not explicitly for teaching #eltchat
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:03:39 who uses Whatsapp in class- or even out of it, for teaching? #ELTchat
GlenysHanson 2017-01-25T19:03:43 @SueAnnan I'm here but don't know nuffin about WhatsApp. Sure I'll learn here. #ELTchat
naomishema 2017-01-25T19:04:04 I'm lurking tonight, #eltchat. Use it just for communication.
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:04:19 @GlenysHanson Great to see you #ELTchat
Marisa_C 2017-01-25T19:04:26 @SueAnnan @teacherphili @GlenysHanson Hya -  have used it to send messages but not as a teaching tool #ELTchat - i no nuffink neither
teacherphili 2017-01-25T19:04:53 I've used it. Started using about 3 months ago. but not for teaching #whatsapp #eltchat
TeresaBestwick 2017-01-25T19:04:58 I use WhatsApp with teens and adults - good way to share information as a group, e.g. HW or exam reminders #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:05:08 @Marisa_C @teacherphili @GlenysHanson Whose topic is this? #ELTchat
fionaljp 2017-01-25T19:05:16 @Marisa_C @SueAnnan @teacherphili @GlenysHanson Hello #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:05:36 @fionaljp @Marisa_C @teacherphili @GlenysHanson Hi. Good to see you #ELTchat
Marisa_C 2017-01-25T19:05:42 @cecilianobreelt was here earlier and left a couple of ideas #ELTchat https://t.co/0AerGoStgY
TeresaBestwick 2017-01-25T19:05:48 Great for Cambridge picture description - learners send voice recording to you and you respond with oral feedback #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:06:35 @TeresaBestwick What the benefit of whatsapp over other methods? #ELTchat
teacherphili 2017-01-25T19:06:50 The groups feature is probably most useful #whatsapp #ELTchat
TeresaBestwick 2017-01-25T19:07:03 Also good for sharing audio tracks then learners can listen in class with headphones at own pace or at home #ELTchat
fionaljp 2017-01-25T19:07:16 @teacherphili Agree. WhatsApp is great but only for personal use #ELTchat
GlenysHanson 2017-01-25T19:07:31 @TeresaBestwick Isn't that very time consuming for the teacher? #ELTchat
teacherphili 2017-01-25T19:07:51 #ELTchat #whatsapp I have never considered it useful for teaching but ready to be won over
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:07:53 @fionaljp @teacherphili would you see a use for it in class? or maybe for homework tasks? #ELTchat
TeresaBestwick 2017-01-25T19:08:00 @SueAnnan Means they can do it at home - just another type of HW task, really. Allows you to listen to just one learner at a time #ELTchat
fionaljp 2017-01-25T19:08:37 @TeresaBestwick @SueAnnan No, as have serious concerns re privacy, boundaries #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:08:39 @TeresaBestwick Do you find that students like it? Would it work with adults? #ELTchat
Marisa_C 2017-01-25T19:08:53 I like the idea of using it for speaking homework because other tools for same purpose need browser etc #ELTchat th… https://t.co/C50pT3ycBX
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:09:38 @fionaljp @TeresaBestwick perhaps you could have a different phone for this #ELTchat
TeresaBestwick 2017-01-25T19:09:43 @GlenysHanson Depends how often you do it. Admit it is an extra task for T, but Ss appreciate the individual practice/feedback #ELTchat
Marisa_C 2017-01-25T19:10:04 I know the #WhatsApp is wildly popular at schools in Brazil #eltchat - @carlaarena is a master user with the sts in her school - #ELTchat
fionaljp 2017-01-25T19:10:05 @Marisa_C True, but students would have your phone no & email #ELTchat
TeresaBestwick 2017-01-25T19:10:56 @SueAnnan Actually only done it with adults! #ELTchat
Marisa_C 2017-01-25T19:11:23 @fionaljp true - you need to use phone number #eltchat
teacherphili 2017-01-25T19:11:42 @fionaljp @Marisa_C privacy could be any issue #eltchat
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:12:01 @TeresaBestwick @fionaljp I share my email with adult sts, so perhaps not with teens, it would work #ELTchat
teacherphili 2017-01-25T19:12:10 *an issue #eltchat
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:13:16 There is also the problem of it not working except on really up2 date phones #ELTchat
Marisa_C 2017-01-25T19:13:36 Wouldn't  you need parent permission to use #WhatsApp with younger learners? #ELTchat
Marisa_C 2017-01-25T19:14:09 I think tho if you were doing a treasure hunt or a web quest it's a really handy tool #eltchat
fionaljp 2017-01-25T19:14:19 @SueAnnan @TeresaBestwick Depends where you work - some schools/institutions have strict confidentiality policies  #ELTchat
TeresaBestwick 2017-01-25T19:14:30 @Marisa_C With teens we send a letter home if teachers want to set up a group #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:15:25 @fionaljp @TeresaBestwick That's true. And I'm not sure I want to share my details with just anyone #ELTchat
TeresaBestwick 2017-01-25T19:15:35 Another benefit is sharing websites - more likely to click on a link than type in an address perhaps #ELTchat
Marisa_C 2017-01-25T19:16:02 Would it be a good idea to send them challenges - tasks that require speed to do? #eltchat a way to motivate them to do homework
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:16:19 RT @TeresaBestwick: Another benefit is sharing websites - more likely to click on a link than type in an address perhaps #ELTchat
TeresaBestwick 2017-01-25T19:16:27 Another fun activity I've done is 'phrasal verb photos' - send a pic and sentence with phrasal verb, nominate next person #ELTchat
Marisa_C 2017-01-25T19:16:34 Sorry - HW a preoccupation now - am doing a webinar on that tomorrow #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:16:55 @TeresaBestwick Nice idea #ELTchat
TeresaBestwick 2017-01-25T19:17:23 @Marisa_C Ah yeah! Saw it advertised, but I'm in class :( #ELTchat
Marisa_C 2017-01-25T19:17:36 @TeresaBestwick great idea - I also like the idea of 'Selfie" tasks - take a selfie and recite a poem or something like that #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:18:15 Does the group idea offer security for its members? #ELTchat
TeresaBestwick 2017-01-25T19:18:46 @Marisa_C And kick off a debate about selfies! #eltchat
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:19:29 Or they could photograph some logos and start a convo about business design #ELTchat
naomishema 2017-01-25T19:19:30 To do things u need a group for the class. This year class of teens protested forming 1- they belong 2 so many. #eltchat
Marisa_C 2017-01-25T19:20:20 @TeresaBestwick te he he -doesn't have to be selfies - could be 'take a picture of a (landmark) from a distance of 2 m -and say sth #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:20:24 @naomishema Difficult. And so many schools don't like the phones in evidence either. #ELTchat
EdLaur 2017-01-25T19:20:32 @fionaljp @teacherphili What'sapp's official age limit is actually 16, though not many parents seem to know this #ELTchat
TeresaBestwick 2017-01-25T19:20:33 @SueAnnan Lovely idea - I also like it when they find English around them when in non-English-speaking countries #ELTchat
Marisa_C 2017-01-25T19:20:59 @EdLaur good info thanks #ELTchat
TeresaBestwick 2017-01-25T19:21:27 @EdLaur @fionaljp @teacherphili Interesting!  I didn't know either - older than for facebook, right? #ELTchat
teacherphili 2017-01-25T19:22:42 @TeresaBestwick yes, 13 #eltchat
TeresaBestwick 2017-01-25T19:22:48 Also find it using for sending writing HW so those who weren't there can do it - just snap a pic of the task and share #ELTchat
TeresaBestwick 2017-01-25T19:23:19 *useful, not using! #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:23:34 @TeresaBestwick Not sure that would go down well. #ELTchat
TeresaBestwick 2017-01-25T19:24:25 @SueAnnan Ha ha! Yes - true, I only do that with my exam classes because they need the practice! #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:25:17 @TeresaBestwick MIne usually send their work by email. What would be the benefit of changing to whatsapp? #ELTchat
naomishema 2017-01-25T19:25:18 Next week task for Ss is 2 choose 3 sentences with superlatives from a box, then whatsapp me photos of relevant thing. #eltchat We'll see..
EdLaur 2017-01-25T19:25:56 @TeresaBestwick It is definitely a great way of keeping people in the loop #ELTchat
TeresaBestwick 2017-01-25T19:26:17 @SueAnnan Ah no, they don't send me theirs on WhatsApp, I just send them the task #ELTchat
naomishema 2017-01-25T19:26:35 @SueAnnan No security and u have 2 monitor for offensive messages. #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:27:42 How do you get round the phone policy in your school? #ELTchat Many of my colleagues hate them in class
jorgeguillen 2017-01-25T19:28:08 What do you think ? #ELTChat 25 ideas for using WhatsApp with English language students https://t.co/B5gXLMraYI via @OUPELTGlobal
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:28:23 @jorgeguillen @OUPELTGlobal Thank you #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:28:57 @naomishema I don't really like the sound of that #ELTchat
teachingright 2017-01-25T19:29:19 WhatsApp can be used to make Ss construct sentences by using emojis e.i.a student will send 4 emojis & others try to make sentences #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:29:47 @teachingright interesting idea #ELTchat
GlenysHanson 2017-01-25T19:30:03 #ELTchat What can you do with WhatsApp you can't do with anything else?
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:30:21 @GlenysHanson I was wondering that. #ELTchat
teacherphili 2017-01-25T19:30:36 I still don't see what advantages #WhatsApp has that u couldn't get with other mobile apps.. #eltchat unless 4 classroom management
teacherphili 2017-01-25T19:30:42 Unless #whatsapp is your students favourite app & it will engage them.  Next week: How 2 use #instagram 4 feedback #eltchat
naomishema 2017-01-25T19:31:00 That's why I want to try the option that they send only to me and not each other. #ELTchat
jorgeguillen 2017-01-25T19:31:33 @SueAnnan #ELTChat Here in Mexico is not really regulated and in private schools like mine, it's even encouraged so… https://t.co/HlPCzNr8aE
fionaljp 2017-01-25T19:31:33 @GlenysHanson Good question. I think there are more suitable tools for teaching purposes than WhatsApp. #ELTchat
naomishema 2017-01-25T19:31:48 WhatsApp is a HUGELY popular app in this country, forteachers and students alike #ELTchat
TeresaBestwick 2017-01-25T19:31:50 @naomishema Good plan - you can easily cut and paste your message and avoids negative group dynamic if you're worried #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:31:52 @naomishema But then you will have to give them access outside the group#ELTchat
Marisa_C 2017-01-25T19:32:13 @GlenysHanson what you can do on WhatsApp you can do on FB messenger, in edmodo, on twitter - whatsapp is going with the teen flow #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:32:52 @Marisa_C @GlenysHanson Yes but why would you use it with adults then? #ELTchat
jorgeguillen 2017-01-25T19:33:22 @SueAnnan I use it (WhatsApp) in class to share answer keys, pdfs, tasks and promote learner autonomy by correcting… https://t.co/02UrjJ1E0q
Marisa_C 2017-01-25T19:33:23 for YLs I would prefer Edmodo or Voicethread - they are safe platforms #ELTchat
ITLegge 2017-01-25T19:33:30 #eltchat hi! Joining late, sorry. Interesting how many use whassapp with teens. Not allowed where I work #childprotection
GlenysHanson 2017-01-25T19:33:40 Sorry, @teacherphili, I didn't see you'd asked practically the same question. #ELTchat
TeresaBestwick 2017-01-25T19:34:00 @Marisa_C @GlenysHanson My 'problem' with edmodo/twitter is asking Ss to sign up to something else. Most already have WhatsApp/FB #ELTchat
Marisa_C 2017-01-25T19:34:01 @jorgeguillen great ideas - i agree that it's a quick and easy tool for all #ELTchat
Marisa_C 2017-01-25T19:34:41 @TeresaBestwick sure - but with YLs no other option sometimes #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:34:47 @ITLegge We talked early about getting parental permission first, but it doesn't seem like a secure platform for youngsters IMHO #ELTchat
TeresaBestwick 2017-01-25T19:35:32 @Marisa_C Absolutely! I was thinking more about teens/adults. No real home-school connection with YLs here #ELTchat
ITLegge 2017-01-25T19:36:16 @TeresaBestwick @Marisa_C @GlenysHanson #ELTchat it is a pain and often puts them off using sites.
GlenysHanson 2017-01-25T19:36:27 @fionaljp I often feel that 21st c teaching is 20th c teaching with bells & whistles.  Little added pedagogical value.#ELTchat
naomishema 2017-01-25T19:37:12 @SueAnnan All my students have my cellphone number. Special Ed teens, personal connections important. #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:37:23 @GlenysHanson @fionaljp I suppose there is ease of access if Sts already have the app #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:38:38 Perhaps it is quite country specific too. The kids and adults I work with don't seem interested in it  #ELTchat
ITLegge 2017-01-25T19:38:42 @SueAnnan it opens private data (phone no)to whoever is in the group &puts T in potentially risky position of contact with ss 1:1 #ELTchat

ITLegge 2017-01-25T19:40:45 #eltchat I like @padlet as a kind of 'host' site for messages, recordings and images (hwk etc). Password protected, no safety registration.
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:41:06 I am in one group, with BESIG members , who are based in South America. Only really use it then #ELTchat
kokahokey 2017-01-25T19:42:28 How to use what'sapp w/out my teenage male students using my number to send me inappropriate/annoying msgs? #ELTchat
ITLegge 2017-01-25T19:42:47 @SueAnnan mine love it, but I just can't use it. It's a pity it doesn't offer hidden data option for groups #ELTchat

fionaljp 2017-01-25T19:43:15 @jorgeguillen @GlenysHanson Not if where you work has confidentiality policies that WhatsApp would breach #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:43:16 Any ideas? #ELTchat https://t.co/1Fln2dEhdS
GlenysHanson 2017-01-25T19:43:30 My doctor would go spare if I started WhatsApping her just because it's 21st C tec. But then she's a professional.... #ELTchat
cecilianobreelt 2017-01-25T19:43:47 @Marisa_C I'm here now! #ELTchat
Marisa_C 2017-01-25T19:44:37 @cecilianobreelt Welcome Cecilia - shared your idea from earlier - any more ideas to share? #ELTchat
ITLegge 2017-01-25T19:44:40 @GlenysHanson @fionaljp #eltchat it can allow a kind of continuity of learning outside the lesson time, which is great.
cecilianobreelt 2017-01-25T19:45:06 @tesolmatthew I asked my student if she agreed on that :) She said she had to google "the guy" :)  #ELTchat

Marisa_C 2017-01-25T19:46:30 @tom_flaherty @GlenysHanson @fionaljp care to elaborate as to what is outdated? #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:46:31 @tom_flaherty @GlenysHanson @fionaljp  What would you suggest instead?  #ELTchat
cecilianobreelt 2017-01-25T19:46:43 @teacherphili @ELTchat  #ELTchat I asked my students if they'd like to join a whatsapp group so I could share tasks and daily tips
ITLegge 2017-01-25T19:46:46 @SueAnnan #eltchat establish rules right at the start. Just tell 'em not to! Discuss and write class agreement? Post in group at start?

Marisa_C 2017-01-25T19:47:21 @tesolmatthew Am sure there are some not so shy young girls out there - not just the boys! #ELTchat
tesolmatthew 2017-01-25T19:47:42 @tesolmatthew *educate #ELTchat
naomishema 2017-01-25T19:48:30 I use edmodo regularly but it has other limitations. Quizlet is the app I've had most success with ! #ELTchat
tesolmatthew 2017-01-25T19:48:46 @Marisa_C not being shy is 1thing, foolishly flirting inappropriately is anther & let's be honest, it's most young men doing that! #ELTchat
Marisa_C 2017-01-25T19:49:11 Aany group chat or message board runs risks of offensive private messaging - educating against harrassment and cyber bullying amust #ELTchat
GlenysHanson 2017-01-25T19:49:16 @ITLegge @fionaljp Continuity of learning in & out of classroom is important & I admit I found it difficult to achieve. #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:49:18 @fionaljp @tom_flaherty @GlenysHanson I had some excellent tuition from Russell Stannard on EDmodo #ELTchat
TeresaBestwick 2017-01-25T19:49:45 @ITLegge @SueAnnan Yes, set it up as something educational, not a "fun" group #ELTchat
EdLaur 2017-01-25T19:49:58 @tesolmatthew #ELTchat Social media is not designed for learning and Education though, it's social. hard for people to know where th line is
tom_flaherty 2017-01-25T19:50:33 @SueAnnan @GlenysHanson @fionaljp Moodle, Google Classroom/Hangouts - anything that encourages spoken interaction online. #eltchat
cecilianobreelt 2017-01-25T19:50:36 @TeresaBestwick @ITLegge @SueAnnan Why not educational AND fun? :) #ELTchat
ITLegge 2017-01-25T19:50:49 @naomishema It is fab! So good for vocab building. #eltchat
teacherphili 2017-01-25T19:50:51 @SueAnnan I must tell @russell1955  abt all this positive feedback re #edmodo #ELTchat
tom_flaherty 2017-01-25T19:51:08 @SueAnnan @GlenysHanson @fionaljp WhatsApp is also very good at encouraging spoken interaction, especially with shy/nervous Ss #eltchat
TeresaBestwick 2017-01-25T19:51:14 @cecilianobreelt @ITLegge @SueAnnan True - was thinking of a strict start though to discourage silliness #ELTchat
teachingright 2017-01-25T19:51:25 The teacher can send a picture & ask students to guess the word #WhatsApp #ELTchat

ITLegge 2017-01-25T19:55:31 @Marisa_C I remember @harrisonmike presentation on vines 2 years ago. Never had chance to try it it - shame! #eltchat
tom_flaherty 2017-01-25T19:55:35 @kokahokey Setting out an appropriate code of conduct negotiated with Ss beforehand and enforcing it if they go against it? #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:56:50 oops. That was a question :-) #ELTchat
teacherphili 2017-01-25T19:57:00 @ITLegge @harrisonmike  vines has bitten the dust now, of course #ELTchat
ITLegge 2017-01-25T19:57:03 @SueAnnan @TeresaBestwick @cecilianobreelt #eltchat: a magnet for inappropriate people. Who'd have thought! ;)
GlenysHanson 2017-01-25T19:57:30 @SueAnnan @fionaljp @tom_flaherty Wouldn't the tuition have been just as good on another platform? But then I'm a Moodle groupie. #ELTchat
fionaljp 2017-01-25T19:57:36 @naomishema Yes, and exploiting affordances #ELTchat

SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:57:51 @ITLegge @TeresaBestwick @cecilianobreelt Trolls pop up everywhere :-) #ELTchat
Marisa_C 2017-01-25T19:57:54 #ELTchat always a good idea - they can create their own contract https://t.co/QcsgWgHak1
nmkrobinson 2017-01-25T19:58:16 @Marisa_C A year ago, at @eltjam we launched a free service for learners to ask questions about learning English via WhatsApp #ELTchat (1/2)
nmkrobinson 2017-01-25T19:58:37 @Marisa_C @eltjam Learners loved it. https://t.co/CouIQfn3c0 #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T19:58:49 @nmkrobinson @Marisa_C @eltjam Great Thanks #ELTchat
TeresaBestwick 2017-01-25T19:59:09 @SueAnnan If nobody offers, I can do it at a later date :) Interesting topic #ELTchat
tom_flaherty 2017-01-25T19:59:13 @GlenysHanson @SueAnnan @fionaljp Tuition on any platform is only as good as the thought, prep, delivery & relevance to Ss' needs #ELTchat
cecilianobreelt 2017-01-25T19:59:57 these are great for whatsapp group challenges #ELTchat https://t.co/yJD9EAMGee
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T20:00:14 @TeresaBestwick PLease do. I'll send you the transcript tomorrow eve. No rush. Still a couple outstanding :-( #ELTchat
TeresaBestwick 2017-01-25T20:00:17 Discussing using WhatsApp in tonight's #ELTchat https://t.co/jbmhjR2WlW
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T20:00:49 @tom_flaherty @GlenysHanson @fionaljp  I absolutely agree :-) #ELTchat
nmkrobinson 2017-01-25T20:01:38 @Marisa_C @eltjam Initially a lot of learners thought they were interacting with a bot of but most soon realised it's a teacher #ELTchat
Marisa_C 2017-01-25T20:01:39 @nmkrobinson @eltjam Cheers thanks Nik - will look for it in the Apps store :-) #eltchat
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T20:02:12 #ELTChat is now in slow burn mode for the next 24 hours. Keep adding stuff. See you all here next week. #ELTchat
TeresaBestwick 2017-01-25T20:02:29 Cheerio all - off to cook dinner! #ELTchat
Marisa_C 2017-01-25T20:02:41 @nmkrobinson @eltjam te he he that's funny! #ELTchat
nmkrobinson 2017-01-25T20:02:57 @Marisa_C @eltjam No need to download an app! Just send a WhatsApp to the number here: https://t.co/vnh3kZhTqD #ELTchat
cecilianobreelt 2017-01-25T20:03:41 another whatsapp idea. Write a funny caption for a photo. Like this one. #ELTchat https://t.co/JVcOokTPzz
Marisa_C 2017-01-25T20:03:47 @nmkrobinson @eltjam just one last Q b4 i leave - what inspired the name? #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T20:03:55 Thanks everyone. See you all soon #ELTchat
fionaljp 2017-01-25T20:06:39 @Marisa_C @nmkrobinson @eltjam It’s a pun on the phrase' What’s up?’ according 2 Google search #ELTchat
GlenysHanson 2017-01-25T20:06:45 @nmkrobinson @Marisa_C @eltjam https://t.co/akWUwMSvOV can be helpful too. #ELTchat
nmkrobinson 2017-01-25T20:06:51 @Marisa_C @eltjam Amé stands for 'Ask me English'. In Spanish you can also say 'whatsappeamé' which means 'WhatsApp me' #ELTchat
Marisa_C 2017-01-25T20:11:13 @nmkrobinson @eltjam Oh !! thanks!! :-) #eltchat signing off now for real
Chris_Fry_BCN 2017-01-25T20:13:44 #ELTchat I loved using WhatsApp to collect feedback for sts while monitoring speaking activities. IWB, WhatsApp web to display to class
fionaljp 2017-01-25T20:16:42 @Marisa_C @nmkrobinson @eltjam Sorry! Thought you meant WhatsApp!! #ELTchat
harrisonmike 2017-01-25T20:31:22 @teacherphili @ITLegge yep sadtimes. Now would suggest instagram video or just native twitter video #eltchat https://t.co/EQWrLSdALT
Marisa_C 2017-01-25T20:31:33 The discussion on #WhatsApp will continue on slowburn #ELTchat till tomorrow - so please please add ur ideas when u can
harrisonmike 2017-01-25T20:32:00 @teacherphili @ITLegge twitter bought (then retired) vine so a lot of the functionality is there for e.g. stop motion, 'magic' vids #eltchat
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T21:20:17 @Chris_Fry_BCN  what a good idea #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T21:20:47 Great Idea #ELTchat https://t.co/uwQ7sC3zYN
SueAnnan 2017-01-25T21:30:21 #ELTchat https://t.co/oldOpzuBhx

tom_flaherty 2017-01-25T22:09:56 @GlenysHanson Why? The healthcare industry is beginning to advance down these routes. The app Push Doctor springs to mind #eltchat
tom_flaherty 2017-01-25T22:10:46 @GlenysHanson If proper thought is put into how 21st tech can have pos effect in SLA outcomes, we should embrace it #eltchat
tom_flaherty 2017-01-25T22:12:37 @GlenysHanson it's going to become increasingly integrated into society - why not just harness it properly? #eltchat
getgreatenglish 2017-01-25T22:53:45 @tom_flaherty @GlenysHanson cos it's used & owned by an active data miner with increasingly political leanings among shareholders. #ELTchat
getgreatenglish 2017-01-25T22:57:54 @tom_flaherty @GlenysHanson 'Proper thought' needs to take into account privacy, data protection, informing about ramifications. #ELTchat
DavinnaArtibey 2017-01-25T23:16:55 I've had Ss send me WhatsApp voice recordings for pronunciation HW. Convenient for them since they already know the app. #eltchat
ThisIsMattStott 2017-01-25T23:28:01 In my case it was adult students who introduced it to me! #ELTchat https://t.co/SBmaUr7iiQ
ThisIsMattStott 2017-01-25T23:41:45 Get your students to help design the ground rules (buy-in). Set strict teacher contact hours. #ELTchat
AdeleRaemer 2017-01-26T04:22:44 #ELTchat in Israel I've been asked to use #whatsapp to simulate teaching in emergency situations. (cont) https://t.co/5340xDSXvS
DavinnaArtibey 2017-01-26T05:52:02 @AlexanderLDiaz Great idea. I hadn't thought to play the best recordings. Noted. :-) #eltchat
