內容簡介

Novice and experienced educators who have considered moving some or all of their language courses online will find this text an invaluable starting point and resource throughout the process. In non-technical prose with emphasis throughout on excellence in pedagogical practice, the text takes both the new and experienced language instructor through the nuts and bolts of online teaching practices and uses multiple examples of online instructional conversations to illustrate these practices. Teaching in asynchronous written, asynchronous oral, synchronous written, synchronous oral and combinations of these environments are discussed and exemplary practices provided for each. An excellent place to both begin and augment language teaching online.

"When it comes to language learning, the question is no longer whether online instruction is effective, but rather how to go about creating effective learning opportunities online. This question is answered with admirable clarity by Meskill and Anthony. Through exposition and example, they demonstrate those areas of language pedagogy that are more effectively dealt with through online than face-to-face instruction. The book is a valuable addition to the growing list of books on the subject, and will be valued by experienced as well as novice online language teachers."David Nunan, University of Hong Kong

"This is an ideal book for language educators who value a sociocultural view of second language learning and want to teach effectively online using cutting-edge, judiciously chosen technologies and Internet resources. Meskill and Anthony have crafted an impressive set of tools for both the novice and the experienced online instructor, with many authentic examples in a number of languages, masterfully combining modalities so as to appeal to the digital learners of the 21st century."Dorothy Chun, University of California
