Here is a description:
Networks are all around us. Our classrooms are small, transient, networks of learners, but we don’t have to limit ourselves (and our learners) to the networks that exist in our classroom. Using technologies which allow us to network, open learning tools and resources, and fellow language learners around the globe, we can enrich our language classrooms, and the classrooms of our colleagues in other places. In this session we will discuss networks and digital citizenship, how it is relevant in the language classroom, and what types of tools can be used to enable language learners to gain a glimpse into the emic perspective of the language and culture they are learning.
