In this talk, the presenters will introduce a number of useful tools and techniques for teaching listening. Although most of the topics will involve the use of Internet-based tools, the talk will be
non-technical and accessible to all. The topics covered will include: 1. Shadowing activities on the Moodle LMS, 2. Transcription activities using in-class group conversations, 3. Adapting classroom content to an online CALL format with a focus on listening, and 4. Preparing instructional materials for the TOEIC Listening test.
Attendees will receive a list of online resources that will help them get started in using the software and tools. Attendees will also receive free technical assistance by email for the presented tools -- lifetime guarantee.
