Jeff's class

I found Jeff's CALL very interesting and useful.
He help me feel more comfortable and familiar with technology, especially education- related tech.
I am learning how to use google blogger and hangout recently.
Jeff's blog has many resources and fun websites that I can use for academical and personal reasons.
I am so slow with technology. And that's why I don't like playing with computer.
But I am getting more confidence. Jeff is always ready for my questions, which makes me explore the google world and find my own challenges.
I am going to start with blogging.

How I can adapt introduction jigsaw into my English class....

1. How I felt with introduction jigsaw
- An interesting activity to get to know each other in the first week of any course.
- let participants feel comfortable with each other
- contextualized activity to improve speaking proficiency

2. How I can adapt the activity into my class
- Do a preliminary survey to find out what students want to know about their classmates
- After a round of getting to know, teacher choose one or two students randomly. And then
  put them in hot seat and let anyone else talk about the person at hot seat
