Welcome! This blog is for the students of ESL 6973 Language Learning & Technology, at the University of Texas, San Antonio. However, this blog may also be of interest to students and educators in the language education field (e.g., TESOL, Bilingual Education, Foreign Languages, Heritage Languages, etc.).
The students in this course are graduate students (MA or PhD) in the College of Education & Human Development, most of whom are completing degree programs in the Division of Bicultural-Bilingual Studies. Our students have been, currently are, or will be ESL and/or Bilingual Teachers, and their experiences range from teaching at the Kindergarten to the adult level both in the United States and abroad. Thus, our students bring a wealth of knowledge and experiences to this course, and this blog will provide a space where we can learn from each other as we engage our course material.
For those readers outside of our course, please understand that we (myself included) are new to blogging. Thus, this blog is a space for us to explore the potential and experiment with the emerging read/write web for effective language teaching and learning for ESL students and teachers.
To the students, I look forward to having all of you in the course. We will have a lot of fun, and hopefully learn a few things along the way!
