TitleMake It So! CALICO 2019
Body
Last week, CASLS' team members Julie Sykes, Stephanie Knight, and Christopher Daradics participated in this year’s CALICO Conference in Montréal. The theme for this year’s conference was “Make It So”. The conference broght together a group of langauge professionals all interested in the roll of technology in language teaching and learning. It was a healthy mix of playing, learning, and building with the CALICO community.
 
The CASLS events included:
  • Making Sense, a workshop about accessing and exploring free tools for digital content analysis and creation.
  • Mobile Apps for Supplemental Language Learning, a session devoted to exploring pedagogical approaches to extending the use of mobile apps for classroom and autonomous learning.
  • Mavericks of Mind, a panel that invites participation in a Community of Practice for high-quality language learning, labor-market coordination, and strengthened intersections between instructed SLA, user-experience design, and product development.
  • CALICO Social Quest, a mixed reality hunt and race against the clock to save the citizens of Montréal from the agitated ghost of infamous fur baron, Simon McTavish. The event was extremely well attended with approximately 100 participants.
