TWT+2015+-+This+is+only+the+beginning-+Technology+Integration+in+the+Language+classroom+and+beyond

Thank you NYSAIS for this opportunity! It was a great opportunity to network and be involved with fellow tech-fans or tech-curious faculty.

Here is the presentation. PREZI - This is only the beginning!

The objective of this presentation is to give participants a better understanding of what today’s tech-integrated language classroom can look like and how technology is contributing to a global educational shift.

It is constructed around 2 main axes: ** Teaching ** which will reflect on how technology is making a new kind of teaching possible, and together we will explore tools that can enhance the language classroom experience for our students and **Learning**, because as teachers we are also learners, and it is increasingly important for us to be and stay informed and abreast of new developments in curricular delivery and the technological tools that make it both exciting and interesting for us and our students.
