Storytelling video recorded live in front of an audience during our KOTESOL 2016 presentation.
Recording videos for your students is easy. Why don't you try creating videos and giving video homework! "Expanding your library: Generating digital content for young learners" - Edward Povey & Gavin Farrell |

This is my son singing and dancing to songs he has learned in English class. An interesting thing about this is that I accessed the videos by using QR codes on his song book. What a great way of sharing links with parents! |

Here's my son reading hangul at 3 years old. I'm quite sure he's using the whole language approach (sight words) for reading, because he hasn't learned the individual characters yet. |

This is a great app for literacy called Endless Reader available for iOS and Android. There's a whole series of reading and number apps by the same developer. The basic app is free with in-app purchases to get the extra content. The quality and animations are excellent and it really helped my son with letter recognition and phonemic awareness. |

This video is an example of how you can use short videos to communicate and provide homework for young learners outside of the classroom. In this video I demonstrate some actions from Jolly Phonics, which is a kind of kinesthetic learning system for phonics. The idea for this video is that students and parents watch at home to practice the actions. This system would be easy to set up with your smartphone and a sharing app like Kakaotalk. |
