Abstract
The coordinators, trainers, and moderators of the 2004
Electronic Village (EV) Online event demonstrate and explain the eight sessions
offered this year. The EVO sessions
were sponsored by one or more TESOL Interest Section. Come and see if you would
like to join next year's EV ONLINE sessions for your own professional
development. You do NOT have to be a member of
TESOL, nor do you have to register for TESOL 2004, to take part in these FREE
events.
The
CALL Interest Section of TESOL held its fourth round of online sessions this
year,
including
readings, discussions, chats, guest speakers, and task-based activities. If you can’t come to the conference, now the
conference can come to you!
The EV Online 2004
sessions are held prior to the TESOL
Convention and some in conjunction with Interest Section Academic Sessions
or Strands. They usually run for six weeks, starting in
January
and ending in
March
every year.
