Hugh explains:

'My presentation will focus on:

using the data projector
setting up
getting comfortable with the technology
practical, time-saving tips
getting on the internet in your classroom
displaying internet content
introducing www.onlinelanguageresources.com
moving from the 'physical' Français Plus to onlinelanguageresources.com

I will also talk briefly about ways of posting your own content on the internet and making it available to your students. (Don't worry! This will be a simple and brief 'primer'.)

My presentation will be, as far as possible, non-technical. The goal of the session will be to 'convert' those who - like me - came from 'chalk-and-talk' background, to the exciting possibilities offered by the data projector and the internet.

If you did not attend one of the presentations before Christmas, I will be delighted if you can attend one of those above and would encourage to do so.

Best regards,

Hugh
