Foreign Language Teachers Unite

==More information contact Shawn Pichoff spichoff@esc5.net or call 409-951-1705 ==

Foreign language teachers are a group of under served teacher’s throughout the state. Region 5 recognizes that LOTE teachers are in need of continuing education and technology training to make their language instruction classes ready for the 21st century learner. This Workshop is aimed at getting the foreign language teachers of our region together to establish a community forum where best practices and collaborative ideas can be shared. There will be several presentations on multiple free technology programs that will help LOTE teachers teach to the 21st century learner.

Concepts to be taught:
 * = **Voki** ||= **Online collaboration for LOTE teachers** ||= **Google Earth** ||
 * = **Web 2.0 Tools** ||= **In Class Moodle** ||= **Smart Board** ||
 * = **Cell Phone Lessons** ||= **Skype for cultural exchange** ||= **Animoto Presentation** ||

**The idea is to come together to meet each other, learn, and establish best practices.**
