Moodle for Teachers EVO 2014 (M4TEVO14) online workshop will take place on a Moodle website called Moodle for Teachers (M4T) and on WizIQ for content sharing, live online classes and recordings, and access to the course material after the Moodle course is over. The aim of the M4T workshop is to provide participants, who have never used Moodle or who would like to enrich their previous Moodle experiences, with the knowledge and skills to navigate a Moodle course, access resources, activities, and blocks from a student perspective and practice the same Moodle features in a practice course area as teachers. The participants will develop a lesson or course on Moodle.

Great! Thanks for the feedback! :) See you both.

PaperRater.com is a free resource, developed and maintained by linguistics professionals and graduate students. PaperRater.com is used by schools and universities in over 46 countries to help students improve their writing. PaperRater.com combines the power of natural language processing (NLP), artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, information retrieval (IR), computational linguistics, data mining, and advanced pattern matching (APM). We offer the most powerful writing tool available on the internet today. As part of the development process, we put together a team of computational linguists and subject matter experts to develop a core Natural Language Processing (NLP) engine using statistical and rules-based NLP to extract language features from essays and robustly translate that into statistical models. We hope to showcase some of our technology at a later date.

TILT stands for interactive Technologies In Language Teaching, and is a European project which aims to promote best practice in communicative language teaching using interactive whiteboards. interactive_whiteboard_sample.jpg Interactive whiteboards may look like normal whiteboards, but can significantly transform the language classroom. For this to happen, teachers need to be given adequate training and support in how to use the tool communicatively, to be aware of strategies and procedures for designing effective IWB materials, and to have the opportunity to reflect on their own practice.

We all have had many years of experience in learning in face-to-face settings in both classrooms and seminar rooms. Although the face-to-face learning environments are often complex and unpredictable, we are very familiar with them and have developed high levels of skill in working in these environments.
