| Abstract | In my talk, I highlighted the numerous benefits of Google Tools for Education in language education, emphasizing their role in enhancing creativity, interaction, and the use of digital stories. Google Classroom streamlines assignment management and fosters efficient communication between teachers and students. Collaborative tools like Google Docs and Google Slides facilitate interactive group projects and real-time feedback, encouraging creative collaboration. Google Forms simplifies the creation of quizzes and assessments, making evaluation more efficient. Google Drive ensures that resources and student work are easily accessible and shareable, promoting continuous engagement. Google Meet supports virtual classrooms and live discussions, enabling real-time language practice and dynamic interaction. Tools like Google Translate assist with quick translations, and Google Calendar helps manage scheduling and deadlines effectively. Google Sites and Google Keep provide platforms for students to organize their work and notes creatively. Additionally, Google Tools support the creation of digital stories, allowing learners to craft and share multimedia narratives that enhance language acquisition and personal expression. Together, these tools create a dynamic, accessible, and collaborative learning environment that supports diverse language learning needs and fosters active participation, creativity, and innovative storytelling. |
