With you? With each other? With native speakers?

My district has filtering software and I can’t access the free tools!
There aren’t enough computers for my kids to use at school.
We don’t have time to use technology. I feel overwhelmed because the tools
change so quickly – I can’t keep up. My students know more than I do – I
feel inadequate.

In groups, discuss the technology/list of tools we indicate.
Consider its advantages and disadvantages and decide on a project design using this too.
Consider: The goals of the project The timeline of the project What will students do? How will the project incorporate the 5 Cs? How will the project be assessed?
