Russell Stannard in ICT in ELT class in Warwick           Tuesday, 21 January 2014  

  

Mr. Stannard talked really enthusiastically in our ICT in ELT class and explained about the way how ICT for language learning should be in the future. That is the' Connected classroom.'

The summary of his talk is as follows:
Connected classroom:

             This can extend the lesson and link the out-of-class learning to the classroom lesson.

Flipped classroom:
             Everybody can share the common learning materials, flip in the lesson. 
            (cf.) Multimedia training blog

Using technology:
             How do we  teach/learn language by ICT ?

             Linking methodologies,  increasing communication,
                *  Pedagogy can lead technology (pedagogy comes first)
             *  Focus is speaking and communication
                *   The change of examination system can be happened
                *   Constructing knowledge
                *   People communicate with technology
                *   Communicative language learning
