Technology
The following are two researches that I have
prepared as part of my Master Degree in the field
of Educational Technology Leadership at the
George Washington University.
Both researches can help foreign language teachers to understand
the benefits of the use of technology in their classrooms. They
will find ideas and numerous links to projects done by other teachers
who are already obtaining results in their classes.
Using the Internet in the foreign language classroom
This is a paper where teachers can find many ways of using the
Internet in their classes. It provides links to many useful web
sites related to Hispanic countries that can easily be used in
interesting lesson plans. Teachers will also have access to professional
sites where they can investigate and learn more about the use
of the Internet.
Integrating technology in the foreign language classroom
In this site it is explained how teachers can integrate different technologies in their lesson plans. What can the teacher do when he/she has suddenly five computers in the classroom? The concept of the leaning centers or stations will be presented and discussed while giving useful ideas and examples of activities.
