Introduction to EVO
Mission of the Electronic Village Online
The EVO is a creation of TESOL's CALL Interest Section. In this age of electronic communication it seems a natural way to bring the issues of our profession to the international stage. Our goal is to allow learning anywhere, anytime, with as little expense as possible. Thus EVO moderators and trainers are all volunteers, and participants need only provide their own Internet access to take part in activities. Your contribution as a Moderator is a significant act of volunteerism, and forms an important service to our profession. We on the Coordination Team also hope it will be a valuable professional development experience for you.

Training Session: Oct 20 - Nov 23, 2008
The 5-week training session is designed to give you and your participants the best possible experience with online learning in our short, 6-week session. Even if you have run an online course before, you will need to adapt to the unique, all-voluntary nature of EVO. Your active participation in the training weeks is necessary.
