8. 1960’s-1970’s
View of language: Structural
English Teaching Paradigm:
Grammar-Translation &
Audio-Lingual
Principle of computer use :
Drill and Practice
Principal Objective: Accuracy
9. repeated exposure to the same material
ideal for carrying out repeated drills,
since the machine
(i) does not get bored with presenting
the same material and
ii) it can provide immediate non-judgmental
feedback.
Computer is used as a tutor
10. 1970’s-1980’s
View of language: Cognitive
English teaching paradigm:
Communicative Language Teaching
Principle of computer use:
Communicative exercises
Principal objective: Fluency
11. Grammar is taught implicitly rather than explicitly.
Computers are used to stimulate discussion, writing
or critical thinking.
The programs avoid telling students that they are
wrong.
Flexible to a variety of student responses.
Computers are used as a tool (e.g., word processors,
spelling and grammar checkers) and the target
language is used exclusively.
12. 1980’s-present
View of language: Sociocognitive
English teaching paradigm: Content-based
Principle of computer use : Authentic
discourse
Principal objective: Agency
2 types: Multimedia CALL (CD-ROMs)
Web-based CALL (CMC &
Internet)
13. Creates a more authentic learning
environment using different media.
Integrates language skills through
multimedia.
Allows students to have a high degree of
control over their learning through
hypermedia.
Facilitates a principle focus on the content.
14. Computer Mediated Communication (CMC)
Characteristics
-provides authentic synchronous and
asynchronous communication channels.
-can be carried out in several forms:
one-to-one
one-to-many
many-to-one.
15. The Web
Students can search through millions of
files around the world within minutes
Students can use the Web to publish their
texts or multimedia materials to share with
partner classes or with the general public.
16. applications that designed to develop
and facilitate the language learning
such as CD-ROMs, web-based
interactive language learning
exercises/ quizzes.
17. Generic software
-Applications that designed for general
purposes like Words, Powerpoint,
Excel that can be used to support the
language learning and teaching.
18. - online dictionaries, online encyclopedias,
online concordances, news/magazine sites,
e-texts, web-quests, web publishing,
blog, wiki, etc.
22. 6) Individualization
7) Independence from
a single source of information
6) Global understanding
7) Adapting learning to the students
8) Critical thinking skills
24. * Lack of human interaction during study
* Wrong perception of teachers and
administrators
*Teachers lack of training on creating CALL
* Lack of unified theoretical framework for
designing and evaluating CALL systems
25.
26. Theory of language:
Functional view of language. It puts emphasis on the
functions of language. It is the meaningful and interactive
purposes within a social context. It is suitable for CALL.
Theory of learning:
Constructivism- includes the following principles:
Learning is an active, social process;
The learner is viewed as a unique individual;
Learner’s background and culture are focused;
Instructors act as facilitators;
Authentic social context materials are used.
27.
28. Objectives:
1) To facilitate experiential learning;
2) To motivate students to learn the language
structure and grammar;
3) To enhance students’ achievement-(i.e., score
better in exam);
4) To expose students to real life situation context
(learning something they can use in daily life);
5) To bring about greater interaction by enabling
students to share their opinion with their
facilitator and classmates.
29. The Content:
We use four main web-based modalities:
Blog
Ustream
Skype
30. Types of learning techniques and
activities
Conversation
Exercise
Interesting learning activities
Presentation
Writing opinions

experiences to broadcasters and viewers alike,
which the pre-recorded static video that's

express themselves (ideas and
experiences)
Skype allows world-wide communication.
68. Using Skype once a week in the English
Language Learning Classroom.
Live video-conferencing using Skype - native
speaker being the teacher.
Students can ask questions or give comments
after the video-conference.
-Learning Outcomes:
Students learn the correct pronunciation
from the native speakers.
Exchange of different cultural perspectives
between participants.
69. Students learn better via SKYPE as they get to
participate actively in class through
conversation with people.
Active participation in class enhances learning.
SKYPE acts as a worldwide information sharing
platform – students will get out of their
geographical or cultural boundaries and get a
broader view of the world outside.
Therefore, SKYPE is an effective tool in
language learning classes especially in
enhancing one’s listening and speaking skills.
70. bring about a more student-centered learning and
engagement in the learning process;
lead to a more active processing resulting in higher-order
thinking skills and better recall;
develop students’ confidence in directing their own learning;
make learning more interesting;
create motivation for the students;
give a new perspective to teaching materials;
make students learn faster and better with computer-
mediated communication.
This is true for both language
and non-language classrooms.
