Week 9

The Principles to design CAI

1. Preparation

    - Purpose

    -Details

    -Learn your information

2. Design Instruction

     -Analysis your work

     -This can show how the feature of your work  

3. Flowchart Lesson

     - Describe the process of how program work

4. Create Storyboard

     - Prepare to present text, pictures, include of any multi-media on the papers.

5. Program lesson 

     - You can make storyboard become CAI

6.Produce Supporting Materials

     - Learner's Guide

     - Instructor's Guide

     -Technical Troubleshooting Guide

 7. Evaluate and Revise

     - Evaluate all of the lesson

   

Week 8

Computer-assisted instruction (CAI) is an interactive instructional technique whereby a computer is used to present the instructional material and monitor the learning that takes place.

Type of CAI
1. Tutorial Instruction
2. Drills and Practice
3. Simulation
4. Instructional Games
5. Discovery
6. Problem-Solving
7.Tests

Advantages
1. Encourage student to join in learning.
2.Student can learn by themselves.
3.Motivate student.
4. Ability of the computer can design and evaluate student fast.
5.It can put picture, sound to make student interest more.
6.Student can learn anywhere and any times.
7. Save times.

Disadvantages
1. limited number of the program.
2. Spend a lot of time to design the lesson.

Week 7

Corpus for Classrooms: Ideas for Material 

Design Neveen Al Saeed & Salma Waly

✨Advantages

✶Corpora helped students to learn about certain language uses that were not available in any of the traditional tools. 

✶Corpora allowed students to examine these language features in context.

✶Corpora helped students get a broader view of language.

✶Corpora could help improve students’ language proficiency.

✨Disadvantages

✶Disadvantage is that some corpus software is not available for students

✷Students are confused because of the large amounts of search results that when searching any corpus.

✨Corpus-based Activities and Ideas for Material Design 

Elementary students: Collocations: make/do

✶Verb pairing game

✶Computer cloze activity

Intermediate students: Modal verbs

✶Contextual Analysis

✶Cloze activities

✶Multiple-choices

✶Express yourself

Upper intermediate students: Phrasal verbs 

✶Cloze activity

Advanced students: Idiomatic Expressions: 

✶Concordance Analysis

✶Pragmatics: Situation analysis  

Week 6

Modal Auxiliary in British English: 

A Corpus-Based Study of Modality Through British National Corpus

⭐BNCweb is the concordance software that accesses this copy of the BNC. With BNCweb, you can search the entire BNC, or limit yourself to just part of it.

⭐Objectives

         BNCweb will e specifically applied through chosen modal verbs in order to:

        1. shed some light on modal verbs of which meanings are difficult to make distinction on theoretical background.

        2. affirm that modalities can be interchangeable due to different contexts, such as gender, type of data, perceived level of difficulty and etc.

⭐Method Three modal verbs ("should", "have to" and "must") will be scrutinized by available functions ("distribution", "collocation" and "concordance") via BNCweb in order to offer empirical information, such as grammatical usage and discursive practice, of modalities in British context. Details of methodology in each function will be subsequently explained in results and discussion section. 

Week 5

Using corpus analysis software to analyse specialised texts

🌞Corpus as a collection f naturally-occurring texts in a computer-readable format which can be retrieved and analyzed using corpus analysis software.

🌞We use Antconc to analyzed texts.

🌞Sources of language copora

     -http://corpus.leeds.ac.uk

     -http://corpus.byu.edu/

     -http://www.arts.chula.ac.th

🌞Designing a specialized corpus

     -Corpus size

     -Text extracts vs. full texts

     -Number of texts

     -Medium

     -Subject and text type

     -Other considerations

🌞Sources of specialised texts

     -Printed materials software

     -Word document texts

     -CD-ROMS

     -Texts on the web

     -Online databases
