Recording (25min)http://lancelot.adobeconnect.com/p5en9ggztcg/

If students find ‘reading’ and ‘writing’ challenging, they can sometimes turn into reluctant learners and even lose their self-confidence. Then, they may need a ‘second chance’ to be encouraged. It is very much possible to help them to use the target language in meaningful tasks with a real audience. Through some Web 2.0 tools that will be shared in this workshop, students will not only have fun, but also improve their language skills. The presenter will draw attention to ‘wiki’ and ‘Beyaz Pano*’ activities from her own class and suggest some other tools. (*‘Beyaz Pano’ is a free Turkish online platform where you can open digital classrooms.)
