Practical Pedagogy for Technology in the L2 Classroom

The Song

The song that I have selected for this chapter of practical pedagogy is from the Italian singer/songwriter Nek entitled Semplici emozioni. Have a quick listen

My criteria for selecting the song were simple. I needed a catchy tune, with not too many verb tenses, that would allow me to weave in several different learning objectives for a range of ACTFL levels, from the mid-level novice to the mid-level intermediate. There are a number of places online where you can find country specific music - youtube.com, soundcloud.com, and spotify.com are popular sites to find the latest in Kpop, Japanese girl bands and a popular Belgian songwriter who raps in French.
