Propuestas metodológicas en formato digital para pizarras interactivas y
tradicionales. Del manual de clase a la pantalla: Una nueva orientación de
la mirada del estudiante
En este taller reflexionaremos sobre una nueva organización del aula de español mediante el uso de material digital e interactivo, así como
material de apoyo en Internet. Para el uso de la pizarra digital no es necesario contar con un tablero interactivo en el aula, sino simplemente

manual a la pantalla, así como una nueva dimensión de la relación entre profesor y alumno. Reflexionaremos sobre cómo un profesor de
español puede hacer más eficaz su clase de ELE combinando el manual de clase con otros medios como ordenador, pizarra digital, etc.
Trabajaremos con ejemplos prácticos. (For all; in Spanish)

Browne, Tim Di Leo
Language Contact in North America
This paper focuses on linguistic interaction and contact influence between European and Indigenous languages in Canada and throughout
North America. Where diverse communities meet, their languages change through contact with each other. The influence may be small (e.g.
borrowing of technical vocabulary), or extensive (e.g. large-scale grammatical restructuring). The presentation includes an overview of
contact influence as a general phenomenon, followed by discussion of specific cases. Linguistic contact influence, a process that
occurs throughout the world, illustrates how language and culture consistently transcend political and societal borders. (For all)
Timothy Di Leo Browne is a Ph.D. candidate in Carleton University’s School of Canadian Studies. His research focuses on linguistic and
other communications contact, particularly between Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples. He is currently examining changes in modes of
communication in the Arctic, from the introduction of writing to the digitization of Indigenous linguistic, geographic and ecological knowledge.

How to Incorporate Digital Content in the FSL Classroom
(with C. Wadam)
This practical session will feature a demonstration of a very powerful digital storytelling tool: Photo Story 3 for Windows. Participants will be

Facing the Challenges: Perceptions from ESL Teachers across
(with L. French)
Canada
In Canada, 526 teachers, teaching in provincially-recognized ESL programs in K-12 private and public schools across the country, completed
a web-based questionnaire on their views regarding teaching resources, support from key stakeholders, teaching conditions and professional
development. The main findings reveal potentially important challenges in the national ESL context with respect to working conditions,
availability of training opportunities, and student motivation. Recommendations for key stakeholders at the provincial and national levels are
proposed. Participants will leave this presentation with a clearer idea of the most important challenges currently facing ESL teachers in

availability of training opportunities, and student motivation. Recommendations for key stakeholders at the provincial and national levels are
proposed. Participants will leave this presentation with a clearer idea of the most important challenges currently facing ESL teachers in

Kirumira, Feisal
Audiovisual Comprehension through Film and Web 2.0
Technologies
Film as a genre uses a combination of discourse elements like type of participants, setting, colour, music, background audio, and
photogenia. Images in film are complex semiotic systems like language, whereby meaning is created through visual grammar rather than by
individual signs with fixed meanings (Machin 2008). Hence, effective film pedagogy has to apply instructional methodologies and techniques
that take audiovisual comprehension in account (Biechele 2007. With this method learners undergo three phases; theatrical enactment of
key episodes, followed by an analysis of the film using audiovisual effects, text, participants (multi-modal analysis), and interpreting the film
in the context of the target culture and world knowledge. Web 2.0 tools that encourage active collaborative participation are very useful tools
in language learning (based on my classroom teaching experience). (K-12; all; in German)

them. The kit also covers counterfeit prevention and social responsibility, with an emphasis on the social and economic impact of
counterfeiting. (Secondary)

The Effects of the Cultural Portfolio Project on Cultural and EFL
Learning in Taiwan’s EFL College Classes
The purposes of the presentation are to discuss: (1) how the cultural portfolio project is being used in Taiwan’s EFL college classes; (2) how
teachers’ perceptions of and attitudes toward target cultures and speakers changed; and (3) what specific cultural knowledge they developed
and modified. Data were collected through students’ cultural portfolio projects, and interviews. Specific examples of students’ original
hypotheses and assumptions about the target cultures and aspects of cultural knowledge there were expanded after the project will be
provided. Results indicated that through the cultural portfolio project, students engaged in active learning, gained their insight into specific
aspects of target cultures, recognized and re-evaluated stereotypes and misunderstanding, became more aware of diversities within culture,
and develop their ability to think critically instead of simply accepting cultural information from text. This study hopes to provide some
teaching techniques for those teachers who are interested in incorporating the cultural portfolio project into FL or EFL classes at intermediate
or advanced levels. (Postsec.; researchers)

Swanson, Peter
Unraveling the Language Teacher Shortage
The researcher will report on an international study including world language teachers in both Canada and the United States (N = 1045). The
research focuses on the shortage of language teachers and how one's sense of efficacy teaching languages, his/her coping skills, and
vocational identity can impact world language teacher attrition. The researcher used the FLTES (Swanson, 2010) to measure efficacy
teaching languages, the Coping in Stressful Situations (Endler & Parker, 1994), and the Self-Directed Search (Holland, 1994). The research
is grounded in the theoretical framework of social cognitive theory (Bandura, 2006, coping skills (Endler & Parker, 1994), and vocational
personality (Holland, 1997). The research has implications for recruiting and retaining world language teachers as well as professional
development of in-service educators. While there was not any financial support awarded for this project, the research was supported by the
two national organizations as well as regional and local organizations in both countries. These organizations placed calls for research
participation on websites, listservs, etc. (For all)

The Chilean National Curriculum in Animated Lessons for Rural
Schools
The session seeks to share the experience of how a group of local applied linguists, language practitioners, and a number of professionals
from diverse backgrounds successfully put together a series of 40 15-minute animated lessons (the national curriculum) intended for 5th
graders at primary school level. The material does not only present an interesting story-line, with characters and settings that reflect the local
idiosyncrasies of Chile's rural world, but it also incorporates cross-curricular values. From a purely linguistic viewpoint, the story-line has
wisely crafted a proposal which takes elements from different linguistic theories of foreign language learning, viz. i+1, graded exposure to L2,
starting with 'here' and 'now', use of repetition and recycling, scaffolding, use of learners' mother tongue, collocational presentation of
language, amongst others. (For all)
