This document discusses using technology like Google Classroom, Google Sites, and Google Hangouts for online learning. It provides guidance on setting up virtual classrooms using these tools, including creating classes, inviting students, assigning tasks, and facilitating synchronous interactions. Synchronous interactions could involve check-ins, sharing, scheduling meetings, inviting students, and assessing students through speaking tasks. Asynchronous learning involves planning, designing, preparing, and participating in internet learning spaces and assessing students.
