Hello there. I'm a PhD student at the University of Birmingham in England. I'm also the head coordinator of the TESOL CALL-IS’s Electronic Village Online and the NNEST-IS Chair (2010-2011). My research interests include blended learning, integration of technology in EFL teaching/learning, and teacher professional development. You can contact me via skype, Yahoo! Messenger, and Facebook (aidenyeh), and on twitter (motherchina).  There's no better way to get ahead- join EVO 2011 sessions!

 

 

 


 

 

have been an EFL/ESP teacher for more than 30 years. I graduated in Language Teaching, have a Masters degree in Applied Linguistcs, and a Ph.D in

Education. I am currently a Full professor at Universidad Simon Bolivar, Caracas, Venezuela where I Coordinate the Graduate Studies in Education Programs and I am the Head of the Specialization in Informatics and Education. Besides teaching technology-related courses at the graduate level, I also teach English for Architecture and Urban Planning courses. A webhead since 2002, I am now the  lead coordinator of the TESOL Electronic Village Online and co-moderator, with Teresa Almeida d´Eça of the Becoming a Webhead (BaW) online Workshop.   Teaching languages in Second Life is my newest adventure.

I have been working in online learning for some years now and am constantly learning myself and developing my own knowledge of emerging technologies and how to design and facilitate online learning more effectively.  I work mainly in the EAP/ESP field teaching online both as hybrid and totally online courses.  I teach on university bachelor and master degree programmes of architecture and engineering in Paris France and am a freelance online trainer and language coach in the global corporate sector.  My particular interests today are online pedagogy, rapid e-learning, CLIL and 3D immersive virtual learning environments.. 

 

I'm a Webhead and was very happy co-ordinating and mentoring EVO 2008, 2009 and moderating a session in 2007.  As member of the Coordinating Team, I look forward to learning, sharing and collaborating in EVO 2010 with you all.

Hi--I'm the author, with Joy Egbert, of CALL Environments: Research, Practice, and Critical Issues, and the companion book of examples, co-authored with Sarah Rilling, Language Learning through Technology (both books to be found at TESOL.org >Publications). I was formerly the director of the TESOL Program at CSU, Sacramento, where I also ran the American Language and Culture Program. I've given many presentations on teaching with technology, and I've been working with EVO since 2002. Hope to see you in 2010.

I am a Brazilian EFL educator at a Binational center in Brasilia, Casa Thomas Jefferson. I really enjoy taking my time to learn new tricks on the web, connect to other like-minded educators, and share what I've learned in the online spaces I've landed. I'm also a proud Webhead. I've been designing online courses for English learners, teaching online and I have been involved in different collaborative projects with friends all over the globe. I truly believe in the power of education to transform the learning micro-spheres of learners. That's why I love the work the Team of the Electronic Village does for the educators' community. For two years, I co-moderated the Blogging sessions. And in EVO 2009, I was part of the Images4Education moderating team.

Hi, I am Helaine Marshall, but I go by "Laine," and I have been working with online learning since I took Vance Stevens' course on Enhancing Online Communities with Voice and Webcams back in 2003.  I have participated in EVO for the last few years and for EVO 2008, I moderated a session Exploring the Big Apple - Byte by Byte and was the liaison for the EVO Coordinating Team to the TESOL Convention in New York City.  At Long Island University, where I am Director of Language Teacher Education Programs, I have been moving courses online this past year and we now have a Bilingual Education Program for currently certified K-12 teachers, offered entirely online. I have created an online learning module on the Adult Learner and Core Issues in Adult ESL for ESL Fast Track, a new online Adult ESL Training Program from Central Piedmont Community College.  My doctorate is in TESOL, from Teachers College, Columbia U.  I have been an active member of TESOL since 1974.  I look forward to working on EVO 2010 as a member of the Coordinating Team.   YM, Skype, AIM, MSN, OoVoo =  lainemarsh.

 

 


 

Hi all!  I'm S. Susan Marandi, from Tehran, Iran.  I'm currently an assistant professor of TEFL and head of the English Department at Al-Zahra University.  Some of my current interests in TEFL are CALL, language assessment, and language research.   CALL is still in its infacy in Iran, so it's hard to keep up with new developments, but it's also lots of fun watching this baby grow and take its first steps!  :-)   And, of course, the Webheads have been very helpful babysitting!  ;-)  Anyway, I look forward to learning more with you and sharing with you again this year!  Have fun!
