Technology Instructional Modules
Originally started as part of the CoBaLTT (Content-Based Language Teaching
with Technology) Project, the modules are now part of the LT4
(Technology Training Targeted for Language Teachers) Project.
They are periodically updated and new modules are being added.
There are many technology tutorials online for teachers, and
tech instruction is also available to teachers in their schools
or districts as hands-on courses or workshops. However, much
of the time those workshops
and tutorials consist of generic content aimed at teaching "how to's" or
the "button-pushing" skills of particular computer tools. What
those generic workshops are missing is the "application" piece:
in our case, the application of technology specifically for language
teaching and learning.
In these technology modules, the focus is on the "why?" and
the "what
for?" - specifically for using technology for language teaching.
If we can entice you into exploring the uses of technology for
language learning, we'll give you resources to find out about
the button-pushing aspects
(if you
need them). In these modules, you will find many resources for
ideas and support for integrating technology.
