Students Without Language Learning Technology Already?

Yes! It happened naturally as I was beginning to assemble our video recording equipment. I looked up and saw curious looks on my students faces as if they were asking, “What is she doing?”  So, I stopped assembling the items and called two students at time to me to demonstrate how to setup a tripod and the cell phone on it for picture taking and video recording. As I was pointing at the various features, they were being taught the sign language. Before I knew it, we were having two-way communication on the subject of picture taking and videoing. Then I had them to take turns and show each other what they learned. I stood there in amazement as I watched students who had no language, now taking the language that I have given them and are signing to each other. WOW!
