Literacy In The World Languages Classroom

Literacy in the World Languages Classroom A 21st Century Toolkit Presented by Elizabeth Helfant and Patrick Woessner

Technology as Passport There will be a day, not far distant, when you will be able to conduct business, study, explore the world and its cultures, call up any great entertainment, make friends, attend neighborhood markets, and show pictures to distant relatives- without leaving your armchair. It will be more than an object that you carry or an appliance that you purchase. It will be your passport into a new mediated way of life. Bill Gates 1995

TPCK - Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge From- http://www.tpck.org

Requirements to Teach with Tech Teaching successfully with emerging technologies requires: • A spirit of experimentation • Willingness to engage learners in the creation of learning resources (co-creation of content) • Willingness to “let go” of control and content presentation approaches to teaching • Tolerance of failure From Handbook or Emerging Technologies for Learning- Siemens and Tittenberger
