UoC ict presentation jan 2015
This document provides an overview of various digital tools that can be used in the classroom to support language teaching and learning. It discusses theories related to technology in education such as the SAMR and TPACK models. It then profiles over 30 specific tools for creating and sharing content, collaborating with students, gamifying learning, accessing authentic materials and assessing comprehension. Teachers are encouraged to let sound pedagogical principles guide their selection and use of technology rather than seeing tech as an end in itself.
