Using Google Wave to Teach a Foreign Language Class

I recently came across a blog post on the Teach­Pa­per­less blog titled “More on Using Google Wave in the For­eign Lan­guage Class­room”. The instruc­tor uses Google Wave for stu­dent group work. The instruc­tor gives them a pas­sage and the groups of stu­dents have to trans­late that pas­sage in Google Wave. With Google Wave, you can record the his­tory of what they stu­dents are typ­ing into the Wave. You can see their thought process and it has the basic text edit­ing tools like high­light and text col­ors. To read more on how this instruc­tor used it in his Latin class, click on the link below:
