Skills Lesson Plans


Dear students,


It is a pity we can´t get pcs for working today, however you need to work in your skills groups and design a lesson plan which must include not only some practicalities based on the CALL-LT reading but also using your own research about Digital Objects, a presenter from each group is going to socialize next Monday April 21st in the Systems Room, by the way on April 27th we will held class there too.

It is urgent to observe your progess and process, so you will be together in class next Friday, April 17th. Students who can not come; have to work individually.

See you, happy week.
