Sharing at ICET2006
It’s just two days, and I’m doing another sharing on our AECT paper, today to a different audience at the ICET 2006 Conference at the Singapore Expo. Here’s the slides that I have used in the presentation. The file size is quite small: only 4,658,208 bytes :O
Hope you have found this presentation useful. Do get in touch with me if you are interested to try out audioblogging/podcasting for your language classrooms, Chinese language especially (not sure how many CL teachers are with me today though), and we can exchange ideas 🙂 My email address is at yh2 /dot/ com [at] gmail /dot/ com. (replace /dot/ with . and [at] with @)
It will be great if you can leave a comment and tell me about how you felt about the sharing. We will be releasing a literature review on audioblogging and podcasting soon. You can leave your email address when providing your comments so that I can keep you posted of the availability of the reference document 🙂
Cheers 🙂
