Here's a brief description of the main tags (labels) I use to organize stuff on this blog.
seed
Something that excites my teaching mojo - minimalistic:
- an article, a video, a song, a photo, a podcast, a list
- an app, a software, a web tool, a piece of equipment
- a methodology, a task type
- an item of grammar, a word or phrase
- a famous quote, a comment, a tweet
- a person, an object, an abstract concept, a theme
seed-stream
The development of a seed - long and rambly:
- a surf track of unplanned, developing, cross-threading strands of thought, concept, media, and motivation
- the raw materials and ideas for multiple teaching sesions
seedbed
Quick response to a specific seed - short and sweet:
- a controlled burst of surfed content
- easily converts into a teaching session
- running order & a few practice tasks probably still needed
session-idea
Structure and resources for a teaching session - focused:
- running order might need changing
- resources might need adding to
settled-stuff
Fully developed session-idea - comprehensive
- ready for off the shelf use
