Technology and Teaching: A 2012 Report from the Technology Consortium

Developed by Alamance Community College, Davidson Community College, Randolph Community College, and Rockingham Community College

In 2011-12, four N.C. community Colleges formed an ESL Technology Consortium to choose and use a selection of newer products/applications and evaluate the effectiveness in classroom instruction. This report shares experiences with purchase, implementation (including new lesson plans), and results. It concludes by noting emerging worldwide findings on brain and behavior changes caused by recent technologies.
