ENGLISH AND ICT
This blog has started as a part of a course in CEP Inca to provide teachers with a range of tools we can use in our classrooms in order to make the digital world as a source of motivation for students. Portfolios, blogs, wikis, digital storytelling, podcasts, calendars; these are some of the words I have become familiar with in the course. I've been suprised about the incredibly huge amount of wonderful tools which can be exploited to practise every language skill in class or at home. Technology is nowadays a useful, common and even necessary form of communication and we have to be aware of the possibilities and advantages that are offered to us. These four days I've been able to realise that technology does make learning an engaging experience indeed, not only useful for language, but also for developing the sense of creativity required to be able to share with others our own unique individualities and make learning a holistic and meaningful experience. This blog is just the first step in exploring the exciting new kinds in which ICT can help us achieving this.
