I live in Long Beach, California (the home of TESOL 2004). For the last few years I've been taking graduate classes in both English and Linguistics, but in the Spring 2004 semester I will begin the M.A. program in Educational Technology. I need all of the help that I can get; that's why I've joined this group. I have a California Adult Teaching Credential with qualifications in ESL, English, and Spanish. I also have a Certificate in Teaching Business English from the London Chamber of Commerce Industry Examinations Board. I've been tutoring EFL students at Dave's ESL Cafe Help Center www.eslcafe.com for four years. You might notice my obvious old age in the photo on my Yahoo profile and ask, "What took him so long?" Here's the answer. I was a professional actor for twenty  years (a tough way to make a living) and a radio announcer for ten years.I'm looking forward to the start of the course. I have a lot to learn. Peace,

Antonia Melvin

(Portugal)

Yahoo ID: antoniamelvin142

I work in a British/International school, teaching English as a second language and Theory of Knowledge, an analytical discipline through which our older students are encouraged to develop critical thinking.

I first got to know about Webheads-in-Action when I participated in a workshop presented by  Teresa at a conference for English as a second language teachers in Portugal.  I found this workshop one of the most inspiring but also practical at the conference although due to various pressures I haven't until now been able to consider seriously putting the time into learning the skills to which this wonderful workshop introduced the participants. I had become interested for quite a while in ICT as a vehicle and support towards developing literacy, learning English and similar skills. I've just finished a distance learning MA in education where during the last two modules I focussed upon teaching and learning with ICT. Nevertheless I am a slow learner and my own ICT skills are sadly lacking; I have a butterfly memory and more goodwill and enthusiasm than secure knowledge regarding providing for the students the personalised online learning laboratory that I dream of being able to facilitate. The technical problems relating to using ICT in my teaching are numerous, however I still feel that the freedom and the scope afforded by using ICT as an educational environment completely outnumber the problems. Although sure that I shall certainly be one of webheads slowest progressing participants, I am entirely excited about trying to acquire the ability to interact in online learning communities and to be able to offer support and facilitation towards learning this way to my students. I am very much looking forward also to making new online friends  although certainly somewhat in awe of the wonderful profiles of all my fellow 'new webheads' who I'm sure will be a fascinating bunch to get to know and with whom to work.

Leah Ann Sullivan

(from the USA, in Japan)

American EFL teacher living in Japan. Over the next few
months, I'm finishing up my Master's degree in TESOL
with an on-line university.

This looks like an exciting on-line class, from the looks of the syllabus, profiles and posted messages. Though I've been studying on line for almost three years, my web skills are still limited to e-mail and very limited search engine use. Quite honestly, I still have reservations about the on-line experience (versus face-to-face interaction), especially concerning teaching. Yet, I keep trying to make it a human environment. I'm interested in the use of the web for interactive EFL teaching. My current job (in a kindergarten, high school and language school) doesn't offer any hands-on possibility for CALL, but I'm working on some future dreams. My bachelor's degree is in film animation, and I hope to someday combine EFL and language arts with teaching animation to young learners. The web would provide an opportunity to do this in an intercultural context. I'm looking forward to opening my eyes to some new ways of thinking over this short course! See you on line!

I think I like learning more than teaching; at the moment I'm working on my PhD about Webquests and reading online.
I have very little time left, but I like being in touch with people that share my interests, and that's the main reason to join this group. I hope to be able to meet you at some of the chats. As to my interests, apart from Webquests, what I like most is designing materials, in fact if I could choose profession now, I would like to be an instructional web designer, that's all for me ;-)

The use of CMC is one of the most exciting opportunities that language teaching and learning have had and I do not want to miss any chance to try and learn about them.
I am sorry for my late introduction ... I have a lot of work these days when we are getting ready for the new academic year, which is starting in fifteen days.  I am developing a virtual school of languages which will be launched in a month's time www.languageway.com (the website has not been uploaded yet !

I love the way in which this is organized and I want to thank the moderators for their work.

would love to find some ways to help my students use english outside the classroom--most of them can use the net.
i'm also working through an MA-TESL with the U of Birmingham, and since there is not much for CALL in the course, i'd like to learn a bit more on my own.  i'm looking to work in the middle east after graduation, and many of the postings seem to require CALL. i may be a bit of a lurker; since i have a paper due soon, and a module on grammar to finish, i won't be as talkative as i would like
to be on a forum.

I am a professor of TESOL at the Center for Language Education at Southern New Hampshire University in Manchester, New Hampshire, USA.
I teach high intermediate classes in our Intensive English Program and Methodology and Pronunciation Techniques in our graduate TEFL
program.

I've just joined up (a little late!).
I've been lurking in the background and just couldn't stay away.
Hope I can catch up from here. I need this and all your good advice. What a group!!
My special interest is in the use of drama in English language teaching. Right now I'm working on a sabbatical project that takes me away to different sites from time to time, hence my hesitancy in joining the group. But I have said, "What the heck..If they accept me, I'll get in there and slug it out with the technology and put something in my brain that I can use now and in the future!"
I WAS accepted, so here I am to work on weblogs and web pages that I need to support my sabbatical project and to sop up everything I can in the short time remaining.
Btw, my sabbatical project is to "observe, notate, and record (in writing and photos)what is happening in the world of drama in English language teaching in various places in the world." So far, I've visited projects in England, Poland, and the Slovak Republic. If YOU have a drama in language teaching project going, please let me know as I would love to visit and record yours.
I feel honored to be a particiapnt in this group and look forward to participating with ZEST!

Greetings webheads.... I finally make it into the posting scene so here it goes. For some months now I have been subscribed to the evonline2002_webheads@yahoogroups.com  and although somewhat overwhelmed, I am excited with the activity and hope to become involved further. I've been trying to develop the use of this technology virtually through http://predu.tripod.com and I look forward into its evolution and your help.

I am an ESL instructor at Lewis & Clark College in Portland, Oregon. In addition to my teaching responsibilities, I also conduct face to face and online training in CALL (Computer Assisted Language Learning).

I will be leading a chat for this group on Monday 2/23 related to Web-based resources for creating online learning activities. 
From the looks of it, this EVOnline session has been very lively so far and I look forward to spending time with you.

I have been a member of webheads for at least a year, and have learnt a lot by reading the chatlogs, following the course, and playing around with some of the software.
I had terrible problems with hackers last year and could not easily take part in some of the sessions, or download software, but I follow what is going on.
I am interested in everything that you are doing, and think BAW and WIA are great groups, even if I do not contribute very much to the groups.
I have used blogging with my students, both to send out up to date information about their courses, and to get the students to blog too.
Thank you, everybody, for spending so much time on developing learning resources, and making the world such a small place. When I joined WIA, I really had the feeling that the world is a global village
