The University Center for International
Studies (UCIS), at the University of Pittsburgh invites you to
participate in a professional development workshop for world
language educators.
The workshop will offer teachers
the opportunity to create digital audio, graphics and video files,
to edit these materials, and to incorporate them effectively
into their teaching. The emphasis will be on freeware and low-cost
software applications so that the teachers may continue producing
these materials at their schools. Participants are not required
to be computer "experts," but they should be familiar
with at least one computer software program such as a word processor.
Resources and curriculum materials
will be provided. Participants may wish to bring a ZIP cartridge
(disk) for their projects. Macintosh computers will be used for
the multimedia component, but the materials created may be used
on either Macintoshes or PCs. Participants may use either Macintoshes
or PCs to create Web pages.
