trusting environment, and develop inter-personal
relationships by way of projecting their individual
personalities.” (Garrison, 2009)
Social

6. Teaching Presence:
“Is the design, facilitation, and direction of cognitive and
social processes for the purpose of realizing personally

14. Web 2.0- WOW!
The advancement of Web 2.0 technologies opened our eyes to
online technologies that were active, participative, and interactive.
15. Web 2.0 Advancements:
Interactive Web 2.0 technologies are developing that now allow
for our students to be able to speak, write, and listen- ONLINE!
16. Modern Languages Thirteen Days in the
Cloud:
This presentation will share how the faculty members
implemented a Modern Languages DE class utilizing Web 2.0
technologies.
18. Free Web 2.0 Resources:
There are many free Web 2.0 technologies that are
available for educators to implement into their classroom
19. Web 2.0 Technologies Used:
Here are the Web 2.0 technologies that we used during
our online class to allow students to speak, listen, and
write
20. Animoto Spanish Student Project:
Students used Animoto to create a 30-second slideshow video
with music to showcase language, culture and creativity in
German or Spanish.

29. Suggestion #1- Establish Desired
Results:
Identify your Learning Objective and then find the
Web 2.0 technology that will help students meet the
Objective
30. Suggestion #2- Define Learning Goals:
Use Web 2.0 technologies to help students utilize all
the different levels of learning in Blooms Digital

Begin to implement Web 2.0 and online technologies
into your F2F class to gain confidence
Pick a few

This presentation will review a survey conducted with faculty in Modern Languages that shows there are still many faculty who question the viability of using DE. It will also review how two faculty members in Modern Languages made the journey from believing DE was not for them to the incorporation of Web 2.0 and DE technologies.

Survey Results
Modern Languages Faculty Survey on DE: We conducted a survey with our colleagues and found they had reservations about the use of DE to teach Modern Languages. The faculty were a little surprised because they got fairly strong negative feedback from their colleagues where they felt it is impossible to teach modern languages in a distance education environment.
Perception of Distance Education: Faculty in the Modern Languages Department were asked their perception of the ability to have SP, TP, and CP in DE classes.
Introduction
Distance Education ≠ Modern Languages: “This learning process requires a high level of human contact, one that is traditionally facilitated by F2F interaction” (MLA Executive Council, 2000)This is the story of two faculty teaching Modern Languages. Both faculty were excellent faculty and used active, interactive technologies with their students. They both felt the only way to teach languages was in a F2F environment because of the unique pedagogical requirements of teaching a foreign language where it is necessary to have students speak, listen, and write to learn the new language. MLA Executives Council recommends F2F because “This learning process requires a high level of human contact, one that is traditionally facilitated by F2F interaction.
Web 2.0- WOW!The advancement of Web 2.0 technologies opened our eyes to online technologies that were active, participative, and interactive.
Web 2.0 Advancements: Interactive Web 2.0 technologies are developing that now allow for our students to be able to speak, write, and listen- ONLINE! We began to become intrigued with some of the new Web 2.0 technologies that now allow for students to go online and speak, write, and listen interactively with people all over the world.
Modern Languages Faculty Survey on DE: We conducted a survey with our colleagues and found they had reservations about the use of DE to teach Modern Languages. The faculty were a little surprised because they got fairly strong negative feedback from their colleagues where they felt it is impossible to teach modern languages in a distance education environment.
Web 2.0 Technologies:
The Connected Generation“Students bring their own technology knowledge to class”and according to Doyle, we need to set aside the time to get to know our students. (Doyle, 2011, 63).Our students already come to class with exposure to technology. We can use their connectivity to our advantage in the learning process.They listen, talk, and watch simultaneously to retain new concepts and knowledge (Doyle, 2011, 108-114).We can embrace their familiarity with digital tools and guide them in the learning process.We need to “Engage students by allowing them to create with it.”Not the tools are important but what facilitator-teacherand their student can do with the tools the students are ALREADY using.

To summarize: How can we prepare students for the future?The answer is: By creating a classroom for the future generation.Future employers want to hire people with skills and knowledge we do not even anticipate yet. Incorporating smart technologies, such as online gaming platforms, augmented realities, and web 2.0 apps, and allowing students to utilized those technologies when creating their projects, will contribute to a student-centered classroom. Students will be eager to learn in such an environment.By preparing students with ideas how to analyze and evaluate Internet resources, handle themselves in a virtual space, connect with people and businessesin other countries, create and present with multi-media tools, we are preparing young men and women who will be successful in any future work force.
