LAI 590LEC - Technologies and the Second Language Classroom (ONLINE ONLY)

This course introduces pre-service and in-service teachers of second and foreign languages to the use of Internet tools to enhance language learning. Participants will utilize these tools not only to improve the communication skills of L2 learners, but also to collaborate with professional colleagues in order to create a personal learning network for lifelong learning. Topics will include the most recent Internet tools. Since technology is changing exponentially, the tools used will vary but the choice of tools to explore will be based on their usefulness for communication, interactivity, and collaboration.
