This course uses a contract grading approach to meet the very diverse backgrounds and needs of pre-service and in-service teachers, who may have varying knowledge and expertise with technology and teaching. Some students will enter the course with advanced technology skills but minimal knowledge of their application in the field of foreign language instruction, and others will enter with minimal technology skills but extensive experience teaching foreign languages. By using a contract grading system, this course will enable students to tailor their assignments to their individual needs and will balance pedagogy and technology.
