Clicker 5 used by Danang College of Foreign Languages Clicker is being used
to teach English to students and families in Vietnam. Stanford University SEALnet program sent a team of professors and students this summer to work in conjunction with professors at Danang College. These professors are working with 4 remote villages to see how technology can be used for instruction, particularly in the areas of language and literacy.
“I was personally involved in software coaching of the English language professors at the Danang College of Foreign Languages (DCFL) on the Vietnam trip, and Clicker was the most popular, out of all the software that we brought, by the professors there. They really enjoyed the attractive interface and were very eager to learn about what the software can do.” (Shi-Hua The)
