Course Description

In this course we will explore over three hundred digital tools in the context of task-based language teaching.  After an introduction to task-based learning, participants will have the opportunity to evaluate a wealth of web-based and non web-based digital tools, design digital tasks, explore authentic assessment tasks, and develop task-based lesson plans and a digital-task based syllabus.
