Developing and Evaluating Language Learning Materials
The range of new language learning opportunities afforded by technology has strengthened the importance of professional knowledge and practices in materials development and evaluation. Materials today can include a variety of individualized, social and classroom learning, particularly through the combination of textbooks, workbooks, CD-ROMs, databases, and tools for linguistic analysis and communication. The increase in options technology provides underscores the significance of professional knowledge in developing and evaluating materials.
The sixth annual Technology for Second Language Learning Conference will explore the issues raised by technology for the development and evaluation of language learning materials.
