Back to school

Well the campus is once again buzzing with life, as students and teachers alike return to the classroom and hit the books. It's good to be back, and I'm looking forward to exploring how we can best put new technologies to use in the service of language education.

With that in mind, I recently came across this back to school guide on using new media in education (by Edutopia), and thought I would share the link so that you can download it and see what you think of the ideas. The guide is full of up-to-date resources, websites and web tools that you can use with your students, and there are also suggestions about how you might use them. To download the guide you just need to provide your name and email address, and there is also an option to sign up for updates from Edutopia, which I highly recommend. Edutopia is a very rich site which has a lot of good content and provides a useful forum for educators who are interested in using technology in their classes.
