Access to an authentic language can now be achieved with a single click. Not only can learners leverage digital media for language learning, but they can also better connect language learning to the real world. This gives them the opportunity to acquire English by tackling other topics of interest or by accessing different digital environments.
In this webinar, we will discuss different activities and projects that teachers can integrate into the classroom that leverage digital tools such as mobile apps, MOOCs and virtual reality. We will also look at how digital tools can be used by learners to share the language they are learning with the outside world or across different language landscapes.

Presenters: Pippa Sutcliffe and Karen Barns
