Applying the TPACK Model to Teachers Lab
What technology is being used?
We want to innovate the learning process by using an easy-to-use website with many digital resources. Both teachers and students will be able to get access to free and downloadable materials that guarantee effectiveness while teaching.
How can it be proven that it will be succesful?
This will be seen in the students profiency when having real life interactions which they can correctly address with the appropiate grammar and oral sense possible as they make use of English in their social encounters.
What content is being delivered?
