    "When it comes to history, science, and global affairs. Americans are notoriously uninformed. Too many of us shrug off our inability to" do math" or speak a second language. And in effect, we assume that these capacities are somehow dispensable, however they are not. Higher education in America is experiencing a similar misassumption......."

    This book was designed to help language teachers access the potential of new video-based technologies for the purpose of language learning. The book covers a wide range of theoretical aspects but the main focus is on the practicalities of how to use various web-based and mobile applications to create motivating and engaging learning opportunities. The book contains more than 40 step-by-step lesson plans that guide the teacher through classroom and online activities. There are also 26 video tutorials to help teachers with the technical aspects of understanding the technology.

    Well like a lot of people I've bought an iPad over the summer and I've been having my first taste of shopping for apps to extend the capabilities of the iPad. I've also been having a look at how some of these can be used for language learning, so I thought I would share with you a little bit of information about the first few apps I've tried.

  • There are certain perceived advantages – flexibility, price, personalized learning… but frankly most of the research will show that these are not nearly as important as we might feel.
  • Disadvantages in online language courses are relatively obvious, I think – lack of easy group practice, lack of eye contact, lack of many paralinguistic features which make the possibility of group gelling and real communicative practice much harder than they might be in a face-to-face context.
  • there are plenty of opportunities online for real, meaningful language practice – Second Life with its international communities of native speakers springs to mind here – and these may be much more real and useful than anything that may be achieved in an online classroom.
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • you cannot really learn a language online, but you can improve one.
  • many online courses will give you plenty of practice in the basic skills, few of them have the community side in place to successfully emulate the experience of learning with a group of like-minded people.
  • the social community should be the absolute centre of any school or course, and not something tacked on at the end.
  • People need to get together and talk to each other, to laugh and share and discuss – you simply don’t get this in an online tutorial with a teacher. So yes, by all means have good solid exercises, games and everything else – but don’t bother opening an online school, or engaging in distance language teaching unless you give people a chance to talk to each other.
  • I would be looking for a company that has been around for a while, long enough to prove that what it offers is good enough to survive. I would then be looking at if they are recognized by an institution for the work they do.
  • I’d ask to talk to a real human being at the other end of the phone who could answer my questions in the language of my choice, and I would find out about the organization – who they have working for them, who the writers are, who their big clients are. I’d have a sample class and a sample tutorial.
