ICT as an Instrument for Foreign Language Teaching

CILTA, the Interfaculty Centre for Theoretical and Applied Linguistic "L. Heilmann" (University of Bologna), presents to European teachers an advanced in-training course focusing on the international context of didactical Web technologies and aimed at providing teachers instruments and tools for the acquisition of an autonomous role within the teaching-learning process, and in particular within the process of courseware production.

The structure of the Course, developed over a two weeks' period, will allow a more theoretical approach during the first week and a more practical approach during the second week: after an introduction focusing on ICT issues related to language teaching, and after an in-depth analysis of methodological and technical aspects related to the use of media, the module will offer lab activities and teaching practice.

With this objective, trainers will be asked to create their own didactical teaching project for a presentation to the class: the multimedia content produced will be collected on individual Web sites for further use.
