After nine years of teaching and attaining my Master's Degree in Applied Technology from Chestnut Hill College, I am finally at a stage where I believe that I am successfully using technology in all of my classes, almost every day. I feel that as a language teacher I have the opportunity to teach my students not only another language, but also the cultures of the people that speak French daily. With the use of the Internet, videos, DVDs, CDs, and various pieces of software, I am truly sharing and teaching the language and its cultures with my students. In addition, my students have the opportunity to create real connections with people in those cultures through email exchanges, video-conferences, and discussions online. With the help of technology, my students see French not as a language to learn by memorizing lists of vocabulary and verb conjugations, but as a language that binds cultures and connects millions of people around the world.
