state standards and related initiatives in the nine core curriculum
content standards areas. Previously she served as coordinator of world
languages and international education and taught at the K-12 through
post secondary levels. While coordinator of world languages, she
worked with New Jersey teacher preparation institutions to become
actively involved in department initiatives related to systemic reform
in world language education that resulted in the development of
several innovative programs at the undergraduate and graduate levels.
Her keynote is titled "No longer a frill: Using Technology in
Learning, Teaching and Assessing World Languages."
We will offer two workshops this year:
1) Technology at its best: Oral/Aural Assessment and Creative Expression
Participants will get hands-on experience in creating oral/aural
assessment activities representing the three modes of communication
and utilize Photo Story 3 to create multi media presentations.

2) Really Simple Learning Solutions: Podcasting in the World Language
Class
Participants will get hands on experience in creating their own
podcasts using Audacity. Workshop will address the use of editing
tools and publication methods, as well as ways to use podcasting in
world language instruction. Workshop #2 can accommodate 16.
