LEARNING REFLECTION (SEMINAR IN ENGLISH LANGUAGE TEACHING) Week 9

ICT Enhancing English Language Teaching and Learning

Today I had class all day. In the beginning, Teacher reviewed the previous lesson by asking some questions for example, what is ICT? Etc. Then, teacher asked us to summarize and read article about CALL.

 CALL or Computer Assisted Language Learning is using computer in language teaching. There are three important phases of CALL;
1. Behavioristic CALL (focus on drill and practice)
2. Communicative CALL (focus on using form in real situation)
3. Integrative CALL ( multimedia and internet)

    After that, teacher summarized the article to us again. Then, teacher assigned homework for us to read the research about current trend and issues in English Language Education in Asia for next week.

   For me, this lesson is very interesting because ICT is very important in education.If we understand and use ICT in appropriate way. It can enhance teaching's effectiveness.
