Aurasma

I was amazed at how Aurasma worked!  I'm still in shock that something like that could be made-people are so innovative! It can be such a helpful and engaging tool in the classroom, especially since teachers are now in competition with other distractions more appealing to kids than learning.  However, it was frustrating for me when the set up, and having to add/follow channels, did not go smoothly.  But, like anything else, practicing and coming to class prepared and equipped to deal with glitches will eliminate much of that frustration.  I think this could be extremely helpful for ESL students learning English, like when they are being introduced to new vocabulary- connecting a word with a picture and sound through video sounds like the magic formula!
