Dear Colleague, Certificate in On-Line Teaching of English (Some quotes from course participants: "I feel like I do when I'm leaving a good party, tired, but not wanting to go!" "It was a great session on Sunday. My mind is bouncing ideas around like ping pong balls." "It was a great class today. I can't stop thinking about what we learned to do and also the discussion topics." "It [the Pre Course Task] was certainly a thought-provoking assignment which I enjoyed doing.") Our first COLTE (Certificate in On-Line Teaching of English) course is now under way, and as well as several career TEFLers, includes an associate professor of EFL and a language school owner. The course is for experienced EFL teachers who want to be part of the on-line distance teaching revolution that is upon us. The main feature of the course is the use of Internet conferencing for English language teaching, which NetLearn has been pioneering for the last eighteen months. The course also covers a wide range of other methods of on-line teaching and how they can be used cohesively and purposefully. Participation on the course is by Internet conferencing and other Internet-related media, and therefore the location of participants is unimportant. On-line teaching practice is included in the course, together with tutor support/feedback, peer collaboration and guided research work. The course tutors are experienced on-line teachers and teacher trainers. Full details and enrolment/enquiry facilities are available on the course website at http://www.colte.com, and you are also welcome to contact us directly by email (mailto:[log in to unmask]), fax, phone or post. Please spread this information to your colleagues. We look forward to hearing from you.
