This document discusses the use of technology in language teaching and teacher training. It provides a brief history of technology in foreign language teaching from the 1950s to present. Experts say that improved technology usability will facilitate blended learning and that ICT can systematically aid language acquisition. Technology allows for a more learner-centered approach through communication, access to information, and opportunities for collaboration and expression. The document argues that technology use will become normal in English language teaching because internet access is increasing, younger learners have grown up with technology, and it provides opportunities for authentic tasks and skills practice. However, adopting ICT should complement rather than replace present teaching models.The role of technology in teaching english language
The role of technology in teaching english languageNoor Mohammed
油
This document discusses the role of technology in teaching English as a foreign language. It argues that while traditional teaching methods are still useful, multimedia technology provides more opportunities for students to practice and build confidence, especially English as a second language (ESL) students. An example activity is described where students learn words and phrases to buy food in a supermarket using audiovisual aids. The benefits of using multimedia technology in teaching English include cultivating student interest, promoting communication skills, exposing students to Western culture, improving teaching effectiveness and interaction between teachers and students.total physical response
total physical responsegingerfresa
油
Total Physical Response (TPR) is a language teaching method that uses physical movement and actions in response to verbal commands to reinforce comprehension, relying on the assumption that a second language is internalized through a process similar to first language acquisition. TPR lessons involve students responding physically to teacher commands to build vocabulary and fluency through situational language use. The method is intended primarily for teaching English as a second language but is also used for other languages, and benefits students of all ages through an engaging, interactive approach.Call presnetation

Good grammar is a vital skill for advanced language proficiency: Knowing how words work and how they fit together is critical for putting foreign words to proper use. The need to learn grammar is always going to be part of language learning, and should not be neglected. Even when using an approach that emphasizes the acquisition of vocabulary, ways can and should be found to incorporate grammar into the learning process. The right strategies and technologies can overcome any objections about possible boredom or difficulty by making grammar learning appealing, efficient, and effective. This webinar explains the methodology of Lexical Functional Grammar and demonstrate how to integrate it into lesson planning.Stages of speaking

1. Speaking is an interactive process that involves constructing meaning through producing, receiving, and processing information that depends on context.
2. There are three stages of speaking: pre-speaking involves planning and organizing ideas, speaking involves actively engaging with audiences, and post-speaking is a time for reflection and goal setting.
3. During the pre-speaking stage, students choose topics, determine their purpose and audience, and decide on a format. The speaking stage has students communicate their ideas through formal and informal situations. In the post-speaking stage, students reflect on their performance and set goals for improvement with teacher and peer feedback.Power point suggestopedia

Todays news in your classroom - Rapid Authentic Text Lessons using Technology
Using authentic texts in the classroom is widely accepted as best practice.
However, there are a number of challenges associated with the sourcing and annotation
of authentic texts, not least that it is a time consuming and labor intensive activity.
Two of the key tasks for an educator preparing an authentic text are:
(1) sourcing a text at an appropriate level of difficulty for use with ESL
students, and
(2) annotating the key learning points in the text. This
practice based presentation will focus on innovative ways of sourcing
authentic texts on the internet and creative ways of annotating
authentic texts for use in the classroom. In this session we will show
educators how to create lesson plans using authentic texts in less than 10mins.Really Simple Strategies: Keeping Track of your Organization and Issues Online
