Miyazaki JALT:

Computers and English Education: the Paradigm Shifts

Date: Thursday, November 27th, 2003 Time: 6:30 PM - 8:30 PM

Speaker: Bill Gatton, DynEd Japan

Description:
Technology has always made big promises. But the promises come true only when the technology respects its consumers and the values of society. For English language education, we take a moment to look at the decade past and the decade to come. We find that change is only beginning, but that change will be useful only if the goals of education and the limits of the media are respected. What is the best use of computers in education? How can the technology and traditional educational values both support each other? We will consider some large questions and some practical details.
