NCTE 2018: Developing Global Competence in the English Classroom

Global competence includes the use of technological devices creatively. So, stop fighting against the use of cell phones in class and let them become our allies, a powerful tool to learn a language and make classes enjoyable and innovative. Cell phones are multifunctional, attractive, and popular. Let us take advantage of them! We will share the amazing results of a pilot program implementing mobile-learning in our English classes, at Universidad Técnica Nacional. It goes beyond exchanging files. There is so much more that can be done!
