Cancelled Tech-Integrated Communicative Language Teaching - A Collaborative Writing Project

Sat, Apr 29, 14:30-15:50 Asia/Seoul

Location: P203

Technology-integrated communicative language teaching (CLT) is a symbiosis of two effective language-learning pedagogies. This workshop first introduces the combined framework of tech-integration with CLT and how it was applied to a first and second-year undergraduate EFL academic writing course. How technology assists in collaborative learning and peer correction will then be discussed using classroom samples of student data. Finally, participants will be introduced to how to set up a collaborative learning environment utilizing technology, monitoring progress, providing feedback, using appropriate scaffolding techniques, and communicating both face-to-face and through the technology. Examples of lesson transformations will be provided so that participants can incorporate this framework into their curriculums or lessons. Participants will gain experience implementing a tech-integrated CLT lesson, which includes setting up and using Google Documents and Google Classrooms to enhance communication and collaboration. The presenters will facilitate Q&A throughout the workshop.
