Integrating Technology into a Business English Course

Part 1 (Professional Development for ESL/EFL Teachers)

What you will learn

  • Integrate technology into their Business English courses seamlessly.
  • Improve student engagement and retention of lesson material.
  • Introduce and model basic software to students.
  • Be able to (specifically) integrate social media into an ESL course (for Part 1) and produce a mini lesson plan doing so.

Description

This course was created to help ESL and EFL teachers - particularly Business English teachers, navigate technology choices, select appropriate applications for their students' development and execute lessons that are relevant to their students' needs. 

We will be discussing various applications and how they can be used in ESL/EFL classes.  Part 1 (this course) will introduce all topics and thoroughly cover social media applications: how to set up accounts, examples of how they have been effectively integrated and discovery of creative ways to use Twitter, Skype and Facebook Pages.

Who this course is for:

  • Experienced Business English teachers will be able to improve their courses by implementing relevant technology into their courses, thereby engaging their students and enhancing the learning experience.
  • Less experienced ESL teachers who are just getting into Business English teaching will be able to seamlessly transfer their ESL knowledge into a Business English course with the help of online tools and common software that their students already use or can learn to use easily.
  • If you are teaching in a non-tech environment to an immigrant population without access to technology, this may not be the right course for you.
