Center for Language Education and Research | Integrating Technology and Assessment for Language Teaching and Learning
Advances in technology and developments in the field of language assessment come together in this CLEAR workshop, which is designed for teachers of all languages. The overall goal is to show how technology facilitates assessment, and how assessment in turn facilitates learning. In short, assessment facilitates learning when it provides feedback that is relevant and timely. This workshop introduces easy-to-use technology that can help to make this happen.
This workshop will provide you with the skills to create online assessment activities for reading, writing, listening and speaking. Special emphasis will be placed on aligning these assessments with state and national standards and the particular curricular objectives of your language program. At the end of the workshop, you will be able to conduct online assessment activities with your students and provide them with feedback that they can use to develop their language skills. There are no technical prerequisites, other than basic familiarity with computers. The workshop will be offered in one of MSU's state-of-the-art computer labs. Bring your own portable computer, or use one of our machines. The workshop is hands-on, fast-paced, informative, useful, and fun! | Jul 12 - Jul 14, 2007 |
