Google Docs can be used for collaborative language learning in three main ways: 1. Collaborative writing projects allow students in different locations to jointly create documents while the teacher can see each student's contributions. 2. It provides a shared online workspace where users can simultaneously edit documents and students and teachers can share workspaces, such as using it as an online whiteboard. 3. Students can use it as a personal learning environment by taking notes online, embedding learning materials, and creating a portfolio of student work.

Synchronous Learning Tools
Synchronous learning tools enable real-time communication and collaboration using audio conferencing, video conferencing, web conferencing, chat, instant messaging, white boarding, and application sharing. The author has used many synchronous tools in their classroom and graduate courses, including Voki for creating speaking avatars, Second Life for 3D virtual worlds, Blackboard Collaborate for virtual classrooms, Google tools like Docs and Sites, Skype for video calling, Adobe Connect for web conferencing, and Moodle as their online classroom platform. While there are disadvantages, the author believes the advantages of synchronous tools outweigh them.

Elearning presentation parent2 1
An e-learning classroom offers several benefits for students including promoting independent learning, developing higher-order thinking skills, and providing global learning opportunities through increased access. Students have choice in what tools and materials they use to complete activities. E-learning curriculum and assessments look similar to a traditional classroom, but students have access to more digital tools like Google Docs, Mathletics, and iPads to demonstrate their learning. The classroom is equipped with devices like iPads, laptops, cameras and interactive whiteboards to facilitate digital learning.
Books without-boundaries
This document discusses the potential benefits and issues of multi-platform publishing of course materials. It suggests that electronic books (e-books) offer opportunities for increased interactivity, engagement through comments and revision notes, accessibility across different formats and devices, lower production costs, and greater convenience. However, e-books also need to be made accessible on the devices students prefer, such as mobile phones and tablets, and issues around copyright and licensing would need to be addressed if content is distributed outside of an institution. Wikibooks are proposed as one way to easily create customized, copyright-cleared e-books by combining relevant Wikipedia articles.
Erasmus+ Sharing tools: e-portfolio, e-book
This document discusses sharing tools like e-portfolios and ebooks that can be used for learning. It provides examples of an e-portfolio that uses a spreadsheet to track student skills and engagement through points. Students can see their progression and skill levels. The document also discusses creating collaborative ebooks where students write sections together and can evaluate each other's work. Tools like Google Docs and Open Office can be used to write, structure, and export the ebook to ePub format to be read on mobile devices. Overall, the document presents modern digital tools that can be created and updated by teachers and students to demonstrate their learning in a given subject or project.

Learning with technology – teaching without (cotesol presentation)
How can teachers support mobile learning without using technology during class? The presentation explores how students can bring real-life, linguistic experiences into class and how teachers can help the students learn from these experiences. Through exploring case studies, you will gain both practical suggestions for activities and guiding pedagogical principles.
Virtual quests dialogic language learning with 3d virtual worlds
The incorporation of 3D virtual worlds into WebQuests offers a more exploratory approach to language learning, where the learner engages in social, immersive and creative activities as part of the quest’s research. This experiential learning leads the teacher to play a greater facilitator-role and to focus more on responding to students’ needs, and less on preemptively teaching. Dogme language teaching, with its focus on dialogic learning and emergent pedagogy, offers guidance in drawing on virtual world experiences for language classes.
Personalizing the phrasebook
The document discusses personal phrasebooks (PPBs), which are collections of phrases tailored to a learner's specific needs and situations. PPBs can help increase fluency and reduce cognitive load. One example is an "email phrasebook" created by a student, Michal, to collect useful phrases for writing emails at work. The teacher helps identify good phrases from emails and suggests additions. PPBs are part of a personalized learning environment (PLE) and involve setting goals, managing content and learning independently. Teachers can help learners identify suitable phrases and develop autonomy in maintaining their own PPBs.
Exploring out of-class learning - mobile devices - dogme language learning
Language classes account for a relatively limited amount of the student’s learning – and much (perhaps most) of the learning is done informally, out-of-class. So, how can we as teachers change what we do in lesson to better support what the learners are doing out-of-lesson?
