In-class Methods meet Online Tools: A Hybrid Class
This presentation explores class participation, learning outcomes, and
the role of communication technologies in language learning and
teaching. Driven by sound pedagogical strategies, traditional in-class
activities are examined through the prism of Internet-based,
multi-user, interactive learning tools. New instructional options
(blogs, wikis, Audacity on Blackboard) illustrate how improved
technology helps to produce highly interactive collaborative learning
environments and provides effective support for learning assessment,
class management, content organization, and course design.
