About this Learning Opportunity
Integrating technology and digital citizenship into the language classroom can be a daunting task, for both techno-geeks and techno-phobes. This hands-on workshop is for Divisions 2 to 4 language teachers and teachers of programs who want to increase student engagement with learning technologies.
Go beyond language games and apps; learn how to help your students become engaged thinkers in our digital world!
Outline of Workshop:
MORNING
- Welcome and Overview
- Ministerial Order on Student Learning: What does this mean for us
- Learning Technologies A to Z: What is available to me?
- Blogger: How can I use a blog in class?
- Bye-Bye Worksheets: Google Forms, Socrative and Plickers
- Collaboration and Co-Creation of Learning: How do I get students to collaborate on a project?
- Assessment IS the plate: How do I evaluate students and provide them with timely, quality formative feedback without overloading my plate?
- When in doubt: Where do I go for help and tutorials?
AFTERNOON
- Teacher Collaboration: What is one thing I can use in class tomorrow? (Break into groups so that common subjects/programs teachers can discuss what they looked at in the morning and work on creating a task together)

There will be a 2-hour follow up through Google Hangout to evaluate the strategies that have been implemented in your classrooms.
