Digital Pedagogy for Language Learning - Resource

Currently in GitHub, this open access resource provides a keyword approach to defining "Language" and how to use digital means to teach "language." We're moving this resource to our groovy new digital platform in May (published by the Modern Language Association). We have 58 other keywords that anyone has access to (and can create an account to save keywords and any pedagogical artifacts) - https://github.com/curateteaching/digitalpedagogy/blob/master/keywords/language_learning.md

One of the core ideas that I develop in my writing classes is the need for skills pertaining to Digital literacy, which in turn, develops Digital resilience. Attached to this post, you will find a PowerPoint that I utilize to set the foundation for writing and researching with these ideas in mind.  I will also include a brief list of resources to assist with unpacking some of these ideas.

Developing the Traditional Essay into a Digital Short

This past year I developed and ran several professional development workshops through the English Department's Writing Across the Curriculum Program. Attached to this post, you will find lecture material, agenda and subsequent annotations for each session, and a prompt for rolling out the application through your courses.

Just a quick share-out! I work with ESL instructors at different levels, they rave about using this game for assessment purposes. It's free although it requires creating an account on the website.
Basically it's like a multiple choice question game you create and use in the classroom as an interactive and fun activity. There's also tons of available games to choose from.

Look fwd to the meeting today and learning from everyone!

Virtual Worlds Best Practices in Education - Phoenix Rising March 31 - April 2, 2022

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
The conference will be held in Second Life ®. Second Life is a 3d user-created virtual environment.

If you are new to virtual worlds, we can get you started, and we encourage you to do this in advance of the conference.

On the main campus of the Rockcliffe University Consortium there is a gateway to enter Second Life which includes a welcome and orientation area. There you can quickly learn the basics to navigate in Second Life, and when the conference opens in March, the Gateway can be your starting point to go to the VWBPE conference.

Want to know what some  international educators are doing for teaching language with technology by using virtual worlds? A woman I know is presenting at the 13th annual Virtual Worlds Best Practices in Education Conference on 3/26/20-3/28/20.
In a nutshell Heike Philp and a group of other language teachers spent 5 weeks evaluating 13 different 3d environments, and Heike will be presenting the findings. The conference is held in Second Life, but many of us are also active in many other virtual worlds as well.  If any of you are interested and not comfortable trying to attend in-world, I'm sure Heike will let me Zoom my attendance.  I'd also be happy to help you if you want to attend in-world. (The conference is free and held in Second Life. You'd need to learn how to navigate in-world, but I can teach you everything in an less than an hour.)
The picture below was from last year's ribbon cutting event. Here's a little video that give you a feel for what it's like to attend.
