Conference Details<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

ThaiTESOL2018 Conference Theme<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The theme of the conference is \u201cDigital Literacy in English Language Learning and Teaching<\/strong>.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The movement of digital literacies has been greatly accentuated among native and non-native English speaking countries especially in Asia. Thailand as well embraces the challenges of this phenomenon in the mainstream education. Therefore, language educators are not only initiating effective classroom practices or integrating diverse teaching pedagogies, but also enhancing a quality of teachers and educators for this drastic change.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Within the context of globalization and fast growing technologies, language classrooms should be a venue for teaching and learning more about the technology aspects and promoting critical communicators. A communicator who is able to use the target language in culturally appropriate ways. Issues of digital literacies and critical literacy should be discussed and promoted in EFL\/ESL classroom learning in the 21st century. It is a means to making ELT learners more powerful\/empowered language users.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Therefore, central issues of English language learners in the digital age or Information Technology era are not about the mastery of language knowledge, it is about how to encourage learners to take part in the international communities.\u00a0 Thus, should the question be posed to language educators, \u201cHow should a language program provide a learning environment conducive to the change in Information Technology community?, How can innovation in learning technologies enhance English language teaching and learning quality? and What challenges do teachers face in using the technologies in their practices?\u201d.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

This conference therefore hopes to manifest multi-faceted aspects of digital literacies and language teaching and learning, and to share what is beyond the professional, significantly influencing teachers’ personal life. These are to positively encourage any in the field of ELT to continuously walk in the colorful pathways towards professional excellence.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
