Language in Motion: Teaching with the Flow by Janet Bianchini

About the Presenter:
I am a teacher with a passion for my job. I am especially interested in integrating new technologies into my lessons. I was born and grew up in England. Two years ago I moved to the spectacular region of Abruzzo in Italy. I enjoy sharing my learning journey and teaching experiences by writing my educational blog called Janet's Abruzzo Edublog.

About the Presentation:
This practical presentation will focus on the ebb and flow of new words entering the English language in a constant stream. I will illustrate some practical ideas and activities using different Web 2.0 tools in order to enhance effective language learning.

I will share my experiences with technology in face-to-face and online classes.
