Devoirs par e-mail Qui accepte les devoirs des éléves par e-mail ? Accepting papers from studentsover e-mail, an acceptable procedure ? Homework and the Internet,Oct 2000 comments.
Judi has encouraged kids to send their homework by e-mail for 3 years now "... but alas, very few do. I've tried electronic journals (dialogue on-line journals) and on our class website, write that they're welcome to send homework by e-mail. I have a trivia question online that they have to answer by email. The best success story I've had is when I'm together with them in the computer room and give them an assignment that they have to send me by email. This works!" -Judi Ma'ale Habsor, Negev, Israel.
"C'est la 3ème année des devoirs via internet envoyés en fichier joint au CNED de Rennes, cycle Lycée.Cela raccourcit singulièrement les délais de réception. Les professeurs sont volontaires et travaillent selon leur style personnel... Je corrige ainsi avec Word 98 pour Mac depuis février 2000. C'est souvent plus long que pour une copie papier. J'utilise différentes couleurs et typographie..." - Christine G.
Côtoyant ses élèves régulièrement, Thierry K ne voit pas très bien "en quoi le recours à cette technologie "innovante"me / leur faciliterait la tâche. Il va de soi que si j'enseignais à distance (Open Distance Learning : c'est la mode), la chose serait envisageable, à condition qu'il ne s'agisse pas d'un examen dont je n'aurais pas l'assurance formelle qu'il est correctement surveillé."
"I have been doing it regularly for the past four years. In this way you can assign graded homework. It's much better than the traditional way.You can help each student individually. I love it". - Aliza.
Sandra receives HW from her students by e-mail every week. "It works beautifully. I ask them to use "Word" and send their work as attachments, this way I can add comments to their work, send it back to them for correction and get it back again. I'll be glad to answer any more questions you might have."
Alain N de Nancy-Metz accepte des devoirs par e-mail depuis 3-4 ans: Quelquefois avec Word et des couleurs différentes, ou avec le surligneur, le plus souvent avec Markin 32. C'est plus long, c'est sûr, mais on a un vrai dialogue avec la possibilité de travailler sur des produits intermédiaires, et on peut faire du couper / coller de morceaux à reposter pour inter-correction ou à présenter au video-projecteur.
Lev in Ashkelon, Israel, also uses Markin 32 : My opinion (which I had a chance to express by presenting at the ETAI Winter Conference last year) is we should encourage students to submit their work by e-mail.Not only does it improve their communicative and computer skills as well as their typing, but it also makes our work much easier. Markin 32 is a wonderful specialized text editor by Martin Holmes - makes grading digital papers a pleasure. Tracking changes becomes easier as well, so teaching writing becomes muchmore effective.Try it - and you will be amazed! To see a review of Markin 32, click here To download the program, click here
Mes élèves m'envoient pas mal de travaux par e-mail :
J'utilise des couleurs pour corriger (vert: à supprimer, rouge: à ajouter), et trouve cela mieux que sur papier, car on peut insérer des commentaires à l'intérieur du texte. Je finis toujours par un commentaire global, des pistes de remédiation, et une note, qui augmentera si le texte est correctement corrigé. L'intérêt est que les élèves lisent les corrections et les prennent en compte. Mais pour l'instant seuls des élèves passionnés de web et équipésà la maison m'écrivent régulièrement. Ce qui fait 5 ou 6 sur plus de 200. Plus quelques inconditionnels de l'an dernier, même s'ils ont changé de classe et de prof ! -Christine Reymond, rédactrice de l'hebdomadaire InfoNews.
Frieda Austerman uses the e-mail a lot: My students send hw or projects or questions they want to get answers to; or if they have been missing for a while they ask me to explain some material which is hard for them to understand. I think using the email for this purpose is something each teacher should go for..
Pour ma part, je n'ai jamais corrigé des devoirs d'élèves par e mail (jusqu'à présent... mais quelle bonne idée !!) Par contre, de temps en temps, je corrige des lettres et CVs d'élèves de Terminale qui souhaitent partir en Angleterre pour faire des stages en entreprise, et c'est incroyablement facile par e mail ! -Andy Waldron.
This is the second year that I have been having my kids send their work via email (I also allow them to hand in the h.w. printed, in class, as well). I do this in my two "high-tech classes" where everyone has an Internet computer at home. (Some kids from my other classes have started sending email homework as well, but it is not a requirement.) For some of the h.w., I note that I have received it and leave it at that. With other pieces of h.w., I print them up and mark (with pen) the page with my comments and corrections. I then hand that back to the students in class. (There are a lot technical reasons that I don't use the correction options in WORD.) For really important h.w. (essays for example) I have the kids go back to their original files, correct their work, based on my corrections, and resubmit it. Here are some of the problems I have found so far, and some of the solutions:
Who pays for paper and ink? I don't have enough time to do all the processing and printing at school, so I get the homework on my home computer. I take home paper from school and have requested ink, but I doubt that I will get a serious supply of ink. Once again, I am paying my own money to do my job in the way I think is correct. My kids often have more advanced versions of WORD than mine, so their attachments come out as little boxes rather than text. There are two solutions. The first is to have them send the h.w. inside the email message, and not as an WORD attachment. The problem here is that the paragraphs get broken up in strange ways - not so good for writing that needs to be in a certain visual form, like essays and letters. The second solution is to have the kids save their work as HTML and then send the webpage as an attachment. This is works very nicely, but you have to teach the kids how to do it. (Please note that WORD 7 and older versions don't have this option. In this case I tell the owners of these older versions to send me the document as an attachment because my WORD 7 can accept it.) - bjimmy@gadot.org.il
By the way, I give homework via the Internet. Each of my "high-tech classes" has a homepage that includes a section for homework. This way I don't have to waste class time with assigning homework. Students who were absent can always find the homework. Not only that, if I want the students to go to a certain URL for homework, I can just insert the link in the h.w. listing. I am also experimenting with GradeCenter,an online gradebook. The students will get a secret code number and then will be able to check their homework status. In addition, there is an option of sending out current h.w. status via email to all the students and their parents. I always tell my students that I am human and can forget to mark something, so the kids keep my records accurate. I have found GradeCenter less flexible than the old DOS GradeGuide program, but it's the best (functionally and user friendly) I've found so far. I would be happy to receive suggestions about better online gradebooks. (I've looked at ClassBuilder, but it doesn't appear very user-friendly. Too many mandatory procedures for my needs.) bjimmy@gadot.org.il
I'm using mygradebook. It also has passwords for students and parents to access their grades and attendance status. I haven't given those out yet because I'm a bit behind in making the entries... Has anyone used mygradebook before? I'd be interested in knowing how it went. -Galia, ETNI
