"This volume of the Case Studies in TESOL Practice series presents case studies from Europe, North America, and the Middle East in which teachers have adapted and pioneered teaching innovations that range from simple additions to traditional classroom teaching to radical alternatives that change the nature of language learning and teaching.
Several themes inform these chapters. Authors explore the dominant role of Internet use in education, describing programs that use the Web as an environment for education, an optimal setting for learning to take place. The enduring role of teachers in the design and use of technology in the language is another central thread. So, too, is the role of technology in transforming institutions at the grassroots level. Most of these chapters report that changes wrought by technology far exceeded the designers' original intentions, often leading to new ways of teaching and learning, enhanced cooperation among teachers, the creation of more satisfying working conditions for instructors, and more self-sufficiency for students.
Part 1: Building a Computer Learning Center
Part 2: Organizing the Curriculum
Part 3: Engaging Students
Part 4: Training Teachers
In these technology-enhanced learning environments, learning centers, classrooms, and labs become spaces in which students and their teachers explore, create, and communicate as they learn language." (Book Cover)
