Digital Tools with Purpose - EVO 2012

For the last 5 years in January, I've had the pleasure to learn and share at the Electronic Village Online Conference which is offered freely to teachers worldwide. It is the perfect example of how learning takes place nowadays. Teachers from different parts of the planet, get together to help each other learn. And best of all, FOR FREE.

This year, you can choose from 14 possible sessions.
The courses take place online during 5 weeks from 09 Jan. to 12 Feb.

My suggestion? Well, there are wonderful courses being offered but one is very dear to me.

EVO 2010 sessions

This is the event many EFL educators anxiously wait for: the Electronic Online Village Sessions, a professional development project and virtual extension of the TESOL Convention.

For six weeks , participants can engage with ESOL experts in collaborative, online discussion sessions or hands-on virtual workshops of professional and scholarly benefit. These sessions will bring together participants for a longer period of time than is permitted by the four-day land-based TESOL convention and will allow a fuller development of ideas and themes of the convention or of professional interest in general.


ALL SESSIONS ARE FREE

Registration starts on January 4th, 2010 and the session runs for six weeks until Feb 21st, 2010.


Check out the various sessions available and select one of your interest.

How can adding images to your in-class and online activities raise student interest? How can you help learners develop 21st century multiliteracy skills through active learning?

In this six-week online workshop offered through the Electronic Village Online, you will be introduced to various online image manipulation tools and will learn how to effectively incorporate these resources into their teaching practices. You will explore how images can be used in educational settings for photo sharing, storytelling, slideshows and comics creation, as well as understand how Creative Commons licensing can be beneficial for classroom use. By the end of the workshop, you will have the chance to develop a plan to begin incorporating digital production into their lesson plans.
