It is hard for high school teachers of English to montor individual student progress and maintain motivation across all four language skills in large classrooms. Based on the principles of formative assessment and Computer-Assisted Language Learning (CALL), this technology fair session showcases a practical and zero-cost workflow which is designed for the Global Success curriculum. This...

Vietnamese A1–A2 learners learn English within EFL settings which typically have limited opportunities for sustained real-time oral interaction. In many cases, although online teaching has expanded access to English instruction, online speaking courses have traditionally been delivery-oriented and cannot adequately address how digital classrooms might reduce communicative distance or provide...

As English classrooms in Viet Nam and comparable contexts move toward more interactive and ESL-oriented learning environments, blended learning must be designed as pedagogy rather than the simple addition of digital tools. This technology fair demonstration examines how blended learning can support differentiated TESOL instruction by integrating face-to-face teaching with purposeful digital...

Designing authentic and engaging materials for English language teaching can be time-consuming and challenging, particularly when teachers need to adapt content for different learner needs, proficiency levels, and classroom contexts. This Technology Fair session demonstrates how AI teaching assistants can support educators in creating authentic, contextualized, and pedagogically meaningful...

Tools of generative AI such as ChatGPT can provide immediate feedback on students’ writing. However, many EFL learners in Vietnam still struggle to move beyond superficial, grammar-based revisions during the revision process. This study seeks to fill this gap by investigating how teacher-led prompting strategies can help Grade 9 students shift from simply linguistic accuracy to deeper...

Low-level learners often struggle to build consistent vocabulary learning habits outside the classroom. Many students tend to study vocabulary only before examinations, focusing mainly on short-term memorization rather than meaningful understanding and language use. As a result, vocabulary knowledge is easily forgotten and learners become highly dependent on teachers for review and practice....

Focusing on classroom-based or self-access learning contexts, this session shows how to integrate technology into listening practices. Using online resources, iPads, and Voice Memos, learners can become more engaged with their listening and their learning progress. First, participants select their listening practice. Following resource guidelines, learners can consider the input length, level,...

This presentation explores the practical application of ChatGPT in creating English exercises and test materials for lower secondary students in Vietnamese EFL classrooms.

In this talk, I will show language teachers how easy it is to create language teaching and learning apps that target specific language learning issues, or areas for improvement, that your learners may have. Creating materials with AI is not new, but Vibe Coding is. Vibe coding is using an AI app to build other apps when the builder has no programming skills. I will demonstrate my Dictaflow...
