Electronic Oasis Application

The Electronic Oasis (EO)
Call for participation
In conjunction with 9 th EgypTesol Convention
November 21-22, 2008

Dear Colleagues, 

It is indeed a pleasure to send you the Call for Participation for the Electronic Oasis (EO) organized by the Education Technology Special Interest Group of EgypTesol during the upcoming EgypTesol Conference ( November 21-23, 2008) in Cairo (Triumph Hotel).  

As usual, the EO is an excellent chance for ELT professionals interested in implementing technology in teaching to get together and to demonstrate/share with other colleagues some of our CALL (computer assisted language learning) practices and experiences.

The Electronic Oasis November, 2008, is inviting proposals for workshops and demos.

All Electronic Oasis sessions will be held concurrently with the conference’s sessions.

The EO2008 has been structured this year to provide EFL educators with knowledge and skills in using technology for EFL purposes through demonstrations, presentations, and workshops.

Presentations are held in a room with a seated audience, with a computer and data show available if needed.

Demonstrations take place within the environment of an Internet/software fair, where a number of computer stations are set in an open area for on-going visitors to drop in at their convenience and view what the demonstrators are presenting in order to learn from their expertise. A demo session is a mini presentation that is to be repeated within the 45 minute time slot allotted.

Workshops are conducted in a computer lab where the presenters provide hands-on training on any computer-mediated application for language teaching, to a number of participants, each seated at a separate PC.

Presenters can apply for one or more slots during the three days of the conference.

The following are a few examples of titles of workshops:

  • Using Advanced Word to Improve Writing,
  • Using a Certain Software to ……..,
  • PowerPoint in Interactive Classroom Activities,
  • Using Excel and Access to Create Grade Report and Keep Track of Students
  • Creating Web Page Using Netscape navigator
