Technology and Second Language Learning

Technology has always been an important part of CARLA's work and is now included as part of all of CARLA's initiatives. However, there is still a technology-specific project and other related activities.

Technology Instructional Modules
Technology Training Targeted for Language Teachers (LT4), is continuing to add new online modules for using technology in language teaching and learning. These modules were started as part of the CoBaLTT project and some of the older CALL information is available (not updated - links may be unavailable).

Technology Summer Institute Resources
These are the web resources used during the CARLA Summer Institute on Technology. It will almost be like you were there in person (but without our shining personalities...)! There are pages of links and information that you should find useful.

Technology Use Survey
The LT4 project would like to know more about what technologies language teachers are currently using in the classroom and which technologies they would like to learn more about. If you are a language teacher, please take five minutes to fill-out a survey!

Other Tech-Related CARLA Projects
Includes information on the some of CARLA's foundational work on technology projects and other CARLA projects with technology content on the CARLA website.

CARLA Summer Institutes for Language Teachers
Each summer CARLA offers a wide array of professional development opportunities for K-16 language teachers including "Using Technology in the Second Language Classroom."

Publications and Presentations
The CARLA bibliography has more information on presentations and publications done by faculty, students, and staff involved with technology.
