New Technologies for Language Teaching and Learning
Monday + Tuesday, June 23-24, 2008.....9:00am - 4:30pm

This workshop will focus on recent and emerging technologies as they relate to the needs of foreign language teachers and learners.

Specific areas include: new media literacies and self-expression in Internet-mediated communication, the use of the Internet to foster language learning through intercultural dialogues, and the use of a number of multi-modal Internet tools and environments, including blogs, wikis, chat, online gaming, podcasting, and data driven learning pedagogies supported by online corpus tools. This workshop will include content for teachers and technology specialists working the foreign language education.
