The goal of the STARTALK-TECH program is to provide teachers with a dynamic and interactive online training experience that will equip them to understand and use technology tools in their classrooms by incorporating approaches that are grounded in the principles of Second Language Acquisition (SLA). Teachers will first complete virtual pre-camp modules on foundations of SLA and educational technology. Then, the online summer program will provide a Teacher Learning Community via both independent and collaborative work. After the camp, teachers will receive ongoing feedback, support, and training.
