Training in Information and Communication Technology (ICT) for Language Teachers through Contemporary Teaching Methods and Wikis

Abstract

This paper presents a series of principles to structure the teaching/learning process, decide the roles of participants and regulate their activity within the framework of “cooperative learning by content and projects” and the educational use of wikis. More specifically, the use of wikis will be suggested as spaces for interaction and construction of knowledge, which, among other things, can develop communication skills for understanding and participating in environments provided by new technologies and thus facilitating technological literacy beyond a simple instrumental mastery.
