In October, I was honored to present at the Iowa World Language Association annual conference in Des Moines. http://www.iwla.net. As part of my presentation, I wanted to give language teachers relevant and applicable technology lesson ideas that incorporate the National Standards.
As amazing as technology is, we all know that programs and multimedia are constantly evolving. Several of my technological tools have become obsolete or there may be better apps to convey the message. For example, Wordle.net is an incredible tool, however Tagxedo.com may have the tools to take it from good to great.
Enjoy!
