  1. Trace Effects and theTESOL Technology Standards Jeff Kuhn, Ohio University

  2. The Teacher Standards • Four Overarching Goals • Each goal has 3-4 standards • The goals and their standards are independent so start with what you know

  3. Technology Standards for Teachers Goal 1: Acquire and maintain foundational knowledge and skills in technology for professional purposes Goal 2: Integrate pedagogical knowledge and skills with technology to enhance language teaching and learning How can Trace Effects help teachers achieve these goals?

  4. Technology Standards for Teachers Goal 3: Apply technology in record keeping, feedback, and assessment Goal 4: Use technology to improve communication, collaboration, and efficiency How can Trace Effects help teachers achieve these goals?

  5. TESOL Technology Standards The Standards Up Close

  6. Teacher Goal 1 • Language teachers acquire and maintain foundational knowledge and skills in technology for professional purposes • “There is universal agreement that teachers must be able to evaluate materials” (Kessler, 2006) Never be afraid of technology, try it, have fun with it and you’ll enjoy teaching with it!

  7. Standard 3 Language teachers actively strive to expand their skill and knowledge base to evaluate, adopt, and adapt emerging technologies throughout their careers.

  8. Standard 3 • Language teachers actively strive to expand their skill and knowledge base to evaluate, adopt, and adapt emerging technologies throughout their careers. • Where can we expand our knowledge base using technology?

  9. Standard 3 • Language teachers actively strive to expand their skill and knowledge base to evaluate, adopt, and adapt emerging technologies throughout their careers. • Where can we expand our knowledge base using technology? • Hint…you’re doing it right now 

  11. Teacher Goal 2 • Integrate pedagogical knowledge and skills with technology to enhance language teaching and learning • “Teachers should drive the CALL process” (Jones, 2001) Remember: Technology should always assist teaching but never control teaching!

  12. Standard 1 Language teachers identify and evaluate technology resources and environments for suitability to their teaching contexts

  13. Do what you can, where you are, with what you have!

  14. TESOL Tech Standards Vignettes The TESOL Technology Standards contains vignettes that show the standards in three settings: • High Technology Setting – computers, Internet and projector • Medium Resource Setting – limited computers, limited Internet • Low Technology Setting – One computer, DVD player

  15. Evaluating Trace Effects • Trace Effects Online • Internet based • Trace Effects the DVD Game • Computer based • Trace Effects the Movie Edition • For use with DVD players Which version is the best fit for your classroom?

  16. What about no classroom technology?

  17. Standard 2 • Language teachers coherently integrate technology into their pedagogical approaches

  18. Coherently Integrate The Trace Effects Teachers Manual provides integrated lesson ideas for each game checkpoint.

  19. Standard 3 • Language teachers design and manage language learning activities and tasks using technology appropriately to meet curricular goals and objectives

  20. Standard 3: Dialogue Scaffold Trace: Did you order a sandwich? Pat: Yes, I did. Trace: Are you Pat? Pat: Yes, that’s me. Trace: Excuse me, did you order a peanut butter sandwich? Pat: Yes, I did. Trace: Are you Pat? Pat: Yes, that’s me. Trace: Enjoy your sandwich!

  21. Standard 3 in Action

  22. Standard 4 • Language teachers use relevant research findings to inform the planning of language learning activities and tasks that involve technology

  23. Thanks! Questions?
