About

I believe that students learn more language and life skills by collaborating with classmates to create and perform. I also believe that teachers often underestimate student abilities and capabilities. My job is to find activities that allow students to push themselves farther than they thought possible, and to put the activities in a good sequence so not only that students learn language, but also learn life skills.

Most importantly, we will describe research conducted on LNRT and cloud-based feedback. We will end with reflection by attendees.
