Dr. Roger Gee Presents on Digital Tools for Teaching at 2022 ACPI TESOL Convention
In July, Roger Gee, Ph.D., professor and chair of the Doctor in Educational and Organizational Leadership program in 吃瓜tv鈥檚 School of Education, shared his research in two presentations at the Costa Rican Association of English Teachers (ACPI TESOL) Convention 2022, a hybrid convention held in San Jos茅, Costa Rica.
Dr. Gee鈥檚 two presentations, entitled 鈥淒igital Tools for Text Simplification鈥 and 鈥淒igital Tools for Cloze Activities,鈥 reflected the theme of the conference, which encouraged embracing inclusive education in practice from the fundamentals to curriculum, regulation, trends, digital literacies, and assessment.
鈥淚n these two presentations, I presented digital tools with corpus-based word lists that may be used for text simplification and the creation of teaching materials with the simplified material,鈥 said Dr. Gee. 鈥淭he main objective was to present ways to continue using online and local digital tools for teaching purposes, building on the skills developed during the pandemic that may enrich instruction now that the pandemic has ended.鈥
