4.Current Research on ICT in ELT (What can you draw for the current research trend in media of ELT ?)

Anyone who has lived through the past decade of technological developments will know how quickly our world is changing. what happens outside our teaching contexts will end up having an impact on what we do inside our classrooms, schools and colleges. Now ICT is being used in all the aspects of education. Use of computers, Internet, television, radio, projectors and mobile phones, e-mail facility, online audio and video conferencing as well as new applications has made the Teaching Learning Process and Training interesting and convenient. It is also helpful in saving time, energy and money. So, we can say that ICT is playing the most important and pivotal role in Teaching Learning Process. Hence it is also playing an important role in the learning of language, especially English Language Learning.

5.The Advantages of ICT in ELT (Define some advantages of ICT in ELT)

The advantages of ICT usage in ELT:

1. Books have a fixed presentation, but computers can combine visual with listening materials, text with graphics and pictures.
 2.  A teacher can use different materials for each lesson, not like in teaching with textbooks, where all classes presenting a certain topic are the same.
 3.  Computers  provide  a  fast  feedback  to  students`  answers  through  error correction. It not only spots the mistake but also corrects it, sometimes even giving the appropriate advice.
 4.  Computer programmes can be adapted by teachers to suit their  students` needs and level of language knowledge. Unlike books, which are produced in a  single uniform  format  and need  to be  taught irrespectively  of  students` problems,  computer programmes are more learner- friendly.

The effective use of ICT impacts on learners and various aspects of the learning process can be summarized as follows:

- ICT increases learners’ motivation and thus enhances personal commitment and engagement
- ICT improves independent learning
- Learners’ collaboration and communication are more important
- Learners’ attainment and outcomes are improved.

 

6.Possible  SPACE for Research (Try to find the possible topic for research of media ICT in ELT)

    1. Creating and Sharing Content
    2. Artificial Intelligence (AI) 

    3. Augmented and virtual reality (Google Cardboard)

7.Concluding Remarks (make a conclusion from your own reading materials)

The most important of media is as a channel to convey information or learning material verbally (lectures) and stimulate attention and activate students. Delivering material verbally can make students bored quickly, this is because the teacher delivers each topic monotonously. In addition, it makes students tend to be passive, teacher and student interactions are only carried out in one direction.
