Welcome to the Electronic Village to explore new ways of language teaching and learning.
Electronic Village Program
(Thursday, June 18, 2015)
Nearpod
9:00 am to 10:00 am
Room 501

2:00 pm to 3:00 pm
Room 502
Our students come from different backgrounds but have the same desire to learn online. The presenter will use examples from his first online class to explain how any teacher can begin teaching online with TEO.
Kahoot
10:30 am to 11:30 am

Kahoot software can be used to create grammar tests which can be graded on a network. It can provide students with instant feedback (反馈), including reports about their strengths and weaknesses. Prezi
3:30 pm to 4:20 pm
Room 602
Uses of Prezi in listening and speaking courses draw students' attention to speaking more fluently. The presenter will show how students can use Prezi to confidently present on a variety of topics, including introducing family, friends, and hobbies.
