ITILT2 Mini-guides

from the ITILT community of practice
resources, tools, and networking

One of the challenges of a project like ITILT, where language teachers work with researchers to create effective tasks for their learners, is to pass on what we have learned in ITILT to a wider audience</>. To be sure, our video resources are a rich resource for teachers looking for ideas, tools, and resources to use in task-based approaches to language teaching with technology. They can watch videos of actual classroom practice, accompanied by explanations and insights from teachers and learners which will help viewers understand how and why tasks were conceived and implemented. The website is also helpful for teacher educators, who can use these videos to train teachers who are new to this approach or these technologies. But as we worked on the design and implementation of activities with our project teachers, our collaboration also threw up other interesting ideas and opportunities that seem worth preserving beyond the lifetime of the project.

These can be grouped under three broad areas of technology-mediated language education: digital resources that can be used directly with language learners, digital tools and applications that can be used to promote language learning, and digital networks which can support language teacher development.
