TECHNOLOGY AS A TOOL
Benefits of Technology: Lends us opportunities to integrate skills Gives us access to authentic resources Fosters communication and collaboration Extends our English lessons outside of the
classroom May foster enthusiasm – Learning should be fun Gives us multi-modal learning opportunities Provides more opportunities for one-to-one
feedback Lends us opportunities for self-paced learning Facilitates a “greener” approach

evaluate uses of instructional technology in the language classroom,
demonstrate the appropriate use of instructional technology to meet specific language teaching objectives,
design and teach a micro-lesson using instructional technology as a tool to reach lesson objectives, and
develop strategies for staying up-to-date with changing technologies
