Virtual Learning Facilitator for Appalachia Intermediate Unit 8
We provide face-to-face world language instruction in a virtual format.We believe EVERYONE should have the ability to experience and learn world languages. Learning a language is never boring. From new alphabets to new fashion, there is always something interesting. A funny idiom or a fancy building – you find them as you learn to navigate new cities and climb distant mountains. You might even ride a supersonic train in China or glide down a river in the Amazon jungle. Language classes today encourage lots of interacting and speaking. While you still need to learn some basic grammar to have those conversations, learning to listen and respond is fun and engaging.We know how important it is for language learning to have an interaction with a teacher. As ACTFL states, "Interaction with a language educator is critical to building spontaneous interpersonal skills needed for real-world communication.Intercultural competence is best acquired through human interactions and meaningful experiences facilitated through a language educator." Through the use of technology, we provide a variety of opportunities to gather resources and communicate, and to help learners have access to an educator and real-world communication!Our teachers are experts in delivering virtual instruction. As technology plays a large role in daily lives, it also has a large impact on World Language Instruction. Using virtual meeting technology allows learners opportunities to access not only a teacher in a face-to-face environment, but also authentic resources from all around the world. We use the latest resources that help learners develop their vocabulary and tools that support learning a new language and help students meet native speakers, as well as access learning materials anytime, anywhere. We love that technology helps us to support a teacher for everyone, expanding communication and giving learners access to real-world interactions and communication that supports World Language learning.
