This video demonstrates how to convert an OpenOffice.org Impress electronic presentation into images in a single step. The other part of the video demonstrates how to import those images into Windows Movie Maker and edit these images into a movie. This video demonstration is created for the benefit of educators participating in the Electronic Village Online EVOvideo training sessions.
Professor Ruthven-Stuart is the last speaker of this forum. He takes the point of view that individual teachers need to "Leverage their institutions affordances, and reduce and avoid the constraints". He recommends that teachers view whether or not CALL implementation is a top or bottom - up approach.
Professor Hinkelman presents some ideas in creating innovative teaching approaches for CALL. Based on his experiences, he suggests that teachers can use their CALL laboratory to organise special communicative activities. He also suggests that maybe it is time to reconsider SLA theory.
In this video Professor Robb speaks about his experiences with establishing CALL laboratories at his university in Japan. He specifically focuses on hardware and some of the challenges teachers may face with their administrations.
Professor Susser is the first speaker at this Forum. First he introduces and defines the concepts of affordances and constraints. He then discusses two stories to examplify his experiences with setting up CALL labs at his university.
