Julie LECOQ
Consultante en milieu scolaire, Polyvision / Groupe Steelcase
Lately graduated in Didactics and New Technologies with a specialisation in French for foreigners, I'm fond of foreign languages, multimedia, and new technologies of education.
After having met my 1st IWB in England, I did a Master which enabled me to know more about this wonderful tool and its potential on pedagogical ground. My training experience in a company that makes and sells IWBs taught me a lot on work life and also the pedagogical gains brought by new technologies of education.
I realized a Master report dealing with the IWB market, the products proposed by the different brands and pedagogical gains, the aspect I'm really interested in.
I also created, with 3 others students, a pedagogical software for foreigners likely to learn French (intermediate level), focused on oral and written comprehension and also culture, thanks to the Mediator software (Matchware LTD). We chose to do a kind of adventure game through the French regions.
I'm now looking for a job (in Paris and surroundings more likely) I'd love to take part in the development of IWBs in education and make people be aware of all the possibilities this tool can provide.
I'm also interested in teaching French to foreigners (especially English speakers) and in creation of edutainment activities and games (CD roms, video games, interactive panels, e-learning, etc.)
