The OFLA Technology & World Languages Committee would like to share with you some great opportunities for Professional Development that will take place at the end of July and beginning of August, just in time to get you motivated and excited for the 2014-2015 academic year.

A Brief Description:

In this multi-connected world of mobile technologies, students already use many devices and apps in their daily lives (Laptops, iPads, SMARTphones). These can also be used in world languages to bridge the gap between classroom and real-world learning. Presenters will demonstrate various mobile-apps and Web-2.0 tools and share how they are using these devices to teach the modes of communication and to assess the eight themes of the Ohio Standards via Integrated Performance Assessments (IPAs). These are hands-on workshops and will take place in a computer lab with PCs. You are also welcome to bring your own laptops and mobile devices.
