![]() ![]() ![]() From a communicative teacher perspective who values proficiency, I can’t say it’s perfect. It comes in an easy to use app that vibes right with how students navigate the online space. If you’re looking for a great way to review and prepare for the end of the year, or even something to assign over the summer, Duolingo is ideal. To make this a distance learning resource, I assigned weekly topics and allowed students to replace any other assignment with points on Duolingo if they were having tech issues or whatever else might pop up. Try Duolingo schools – you can assign specific topics and skills and it’s easy for students to join. It feels like a game, easily keeps track of student scores (seriously, self-grading!) and they’ve made huge strides in incorporating SLA principles in their activities. I’ve been using Duolingo with students for five years now, and I highly recommend it. I recommend giving partial credit for watching and then full credit for posting responses. Fair warning: you are not alone if you’re having trouble getting students to watch videos and post them. This is what I’ve been using all of distance learning and the students who participate love it and find it easy to use. Flipgrid has you covered for this–it’s a free platform for educators where both students and teachers can securely record up to 5 minutes of videos. There’s no better way to still preserve interpersonal Spanish speaking and listening skills than with video. Record Remote Learning Lessons with Flipgrid
