Materializing this academic activity is a great leap for us, language educators, in furthering our career and establishing more connections with academicians and scholars throughout the nation. This is also a huge accomplishment that we can take pride ofโ€” making further studies on theories in educational technology and learning from the practices of other educators in virtual language classes.
