Chapter-10 • Technology in English Language Learning and Foreign Language Instruction
Technology Integration Strategies for Foregin Language 1) Support for authentic oral and written practice o Multimedia software & Instructive story books
1) Support for authentic oral and written practice o Learning games on handheld computers
1) Support for authentic oral and written practice o Language labs
1) Support for authentic oral and written practice o Radio broadcasts
Benefits of authentic oral and written practice Individualize instruction Internalize word meanings and give additional practice Practice in oral English direction &reading and responding in written English Builds listening competence
Technology Integration Strategies Cont. 2) Support for practice in language subskills
Benefits of practice in language subskills Practice specific language skills and vocabulary sets Corrects common errors Vocabulary currently studied
Technology Integration Strategies Cont. 3) Presentation aids
Benefits of presentation aids Reduces students’ stress and focus their presentation Teaches valuables kills in making effective presentations Makes classtoom presentations more understandable and interesting
Technology Integration Strategies Cont. 4) Support for text production
Benefits of text production Authentic use of language in creating journals, descriptions of experiences, oral presentations and research projects Correct usage with grammar checks, correct spelling(spell check) and reminders to employ good style
Technology Integration Strategies Cont. 5) Virtual field trips for modified language immersion expressions Many of the world’s outsanding art museums have “virtual tours” that can be viewed online.
Benefits of virtual field trips Offers expanded opportunities for language acquisition Allows students to “visit” locations and have experieces that wouldn’t be available to them otherwise
Technology Integration Strategies Cont. 6) Virtual Collaborations
Benefits of virtual collaborations Motivate students to use new language skills Helps students learn more about the diversity of their own country than they would from textbooks
Technology Integration Strategies Cont. 7) Productivity and lesson plans for teachers
TOP 10 Strategies for technology in ELL/foreign language • Images downloaded from internet help illustrate language concepts • Interactive story books supports language acquisition • Interactive software and handhield devices provide lang skills practice • Presentation aids help scaffold students’ language use • Websites offer exercises for students to prcatice subskills • Virtual colloborations provide authentic practice • Virtual field trips provide simulated immersion experiences • Foreign language word processing supports writing in other languages • Language labs support language acquisition • Listening lab exercises provide language skills practice
