I gave a presentation at the 25th Anniversary International Conference of the Thailand TESOl organization on January 21st at the Queen's Park Hotel in Bangkok.
My talk was on "Internet Based Learning for ESL in Critical Thinking", a Position paper for the 25th Anniversary International Thailand TESOL Conference, Bangkok, Thailand - January 20-22, 2005
It was at this conference I learned about the CMS Course Management Software called Moodle. I have registered with Moodle and plan to put my course on Critical Thinking into the program.
A 15 week Conversation English course is planned to begin on February 15th at the Governors Office in Nakhon Sawan at City Hall. I am currently gathering teaching materials for this course.
