Abstract
This study reports on how we integrate technology into the teaching of Chinese as a foreign language, which can be applied to the teaching of other world languages. The paper starts with some fundamental guiding questions: what are the strengths and limitations of technology in the context of language teaching? Can we do improve the effectiveness of teaching and learning if technology is integrated into our curriculum? What specific pedagogical problems can it help solve? How can it be integrated meaningfully and effectively into various phases of our curriculum of teaching world languages? Specific instructional examples will be used to illustrate the use of various instruments such as Flipgrid, Jamboard, ChatGPT, Padlet, Zoom to help promote better collaboration and more effective teaching and learning and assessment of world languages.
