The volume presents novice and experienced teachers with a sound and concise reflection on the use of the newest technologies in education. The discussion covers e-learning platforms, m(obile)-learning, web technologies (blog, micro-blog, wiki), social networks, video-games and role games, videos, and some basic issues such as (digital) story telling, hypertextuality, multimediality, and identity. Many projects brought in as examples of the use of technologies in educational contexts are aimed at language learning. The final section discusses Italian and European programs centered on new technologies. The authors balance an enthusiastic attitude with realistic considerations on how the educational use of new technologies requires great accuracy to the design of the intervention and close monitoring.

Many projects brought in as examples of the use of technologies in educational contexts are aimed at language learning. The final section discusses Italian and European programs centered on new technologies. The authors balance an enthusiastic attitude with realistic considerations on how the educational use of new technologies requires great accuracy to the design of the intervention and close monitoring.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
