Title: Workshop: Tech Up Your Classroom: Enhancing Your Foreign Language Classroom with Technology
Body: From http://clear.msu.edu/clear/professionaldev/summerworkshops.php Tech Up Your Classroom: Enhancing Your Foreign Language Classroom with Technology Workshop Leader: Dr. Senta Goertler Workshop Dates: July 14-16, 2008 Workshop Time: Exact times TBA, but approximately 9:00 - 4:00 each day We use technology in our everyday lives, and so do our students. Why not use it for teaching? Technology can help make the language classroom more efficient, more authentic, more learner-centered, and it addresses different learning styles. In this workshop, we will discuss simple ways of “teching up” your classroom through the use of chats, message boards, blogs, wikis, videos, web quests, course management systems, Microsoft Office software, the Internet in general, and various free CLEAR products. You will get to experience activities from the learner’s perspective and develop and share your own activities. The goal of the class is to help you use technology effectively for your own teaching, your administrative tasks, and your professional development, including potential action research projects. For more information about this and other CLEAR workshops, visit http://clear.msu.edu/clear/professionaldev/summerworkshops.php .
