Lessig (2005) provides a range of examples of the kinds of digital remix practices that in his view constitute “the more interesting ways [to write]” for young people. These include remixing clips from movies to create “faux” trailers for hypothetical movies; setting remixed movie trailers to remixed music of choice that is synchronized to the visual action; recording a series of anime cartoons and then video-editing them in synchrony with a popular music track; mixing “found” images with original images in order to express a theme or idea (with or without text added); and mixing images, animations and texts to create cartoons or satirical posters (including political cartoons and animations), to name just a few types. We accept this conceptual extension of “writing” to include practices of producing, exchanging and negotiating digitally remixed texts, which may employ a single medium or may be multimedia remixes. (We also recognize as forms of remix various practices that do not necessarily involve digitally remixing sound, image and animation, such as paper-based forms of fanfiction writing and fan-producing manga art and comics, which continue to go on alongside their hugely subscribed digital variants.
There are all very good examples. The great thing is, that as a language teacher there are so many different types of media that the students can really hone in on their interests.

where someone creates a cultural product by mixing meaningful elements together (e.g., ideas from different people with ideas of one’s own), and then someone else comes along and remixes this cultural artefact with others to create yet another artefact.
I think this could be fun to with students in Spanish. I can introduce music, poems, art and have students remix them.

Video Games (Is School Enough? Series)
I love the idea for my students coding and creating games. I bought a robot to start getting students to code and start engaging in other ideas.
I love the view the student has on feedback. Knowing what constructive criticism is really helpful is great growth-mindset. Using peers to give constructive criticism is a great way to help students out.

Cultural Anthropologist Mimi Ito on Connected Learning, Children, and Digital Media
This is a great question and a great start. I think teachers want o do this but do not know how or where to start. The question has been posed and I am sure little by little we will figure out how to do it.

Interpretive Mode
Good ideas for the World Language Classroom and a good opportunity to teach digital literacy skills, especially reading. Students can look for the information instead of the information just being handed to them.

. Open learning, also known as open education, can be defined as a set of practices, resources, and scholarship that are openly accessible, free to use and access, and to re-purpose.
Sharing good ideas, lesson plans and resources can benefit everyone. When we can share and critique each other's work we can make lessons better and come up with new ideas together as well

Not teaching digital literacy along with language or other literacy instruction does our students a disservice. Nowadays, applying for a job or even filling in an online form to reserve a picnic table at a local park requires digital literacy skills.
We must also not assume that others are teaching out students digital literacy. It is everyone's responsibility.

Stage 1 Fluency Example: The Menu Project
This is something I have done in my classroom. I must say the food unit is one of the engaging units because it is the most relevant things to human. We need food to survive.

TPACK Lesson
This is a great TPACK lesson for Spanish. I have done a lesson sort of like this with back-to-school flyers but I love how she takes it one step further and integrates twitter as well.

Find Native Speakers
This is a great idea to engage students. I have thought about it before but I have not yet put it into practice. I did pen pal letters one year but snail mail was too slow. I am going to try an incorporate this idea even more.
