The California Teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages (CATESOL) annual conference was held in San Diego from October 24-27, 2013. Over 1,000 attendees were able to select from a wide variety of high-quality sessions and hands-on workshops. One of the highlights for me was a workshop offered by my OTAN colleague, Branka Marceta. She highlighted frameworks for K-12 and adult education that had a strong technology focus. Workshop attendees reviewed the frameworks and then came up with ways to effectively incorporate technology with specific student groups.

Some of the sites Branka used in her workshop included Poll Everywhere, Voki, and USA Learns. To see her complete presentation outline, visit http://webtwopointohinadulted.wikispaces.com/CATESOL+2013

This was my first time attending CATESOL, and I look forward to future events!
