RICHARDSON Ch. 4. Wikis: Easy Collaboration for All
Popular second language acquisition theories stress the importance of "comprehensible input." While most agree this is important, many others argue we also need to focus on output as well. What are some ideas you gained from the Egbert chapter about how technology can be used to encourage creativity and production? How does this help promote language learning? Share any experiences you've had with any of these or similiar ideas in language learning classrooms. Finally, comment on the potential of Wikis to allow language learners to collaborate in creative and productive ways.

Dr. Wright,
I have asked Joleen if I can trade the Quickshare originally scheduled for me on Feb. 27 with her slot on Feb. 20. Will confirm when I hear from her.
Mike's blog is apparently not posted. I would like to correspond with him. Would you kindly post.
BTW, it was very enlightening to see what is expected of doctoral candidates and prospective faculty members via Mr. Hult's presentation. Would be curious to know what you thought. I talked briefly to him afterwards, and he very knowledgeable about European life. Thanks so much for allowing the class to participate, despite the fact that it took time away from the technology.
Carol
