Video and Software Self-Development Tools for the Language Teacher
Issued Date: 7 Aug 2014
Abstract
The comprehension-based approach has its foundations in cognitive science. It focuses on listening and reading where the teacher is a facilitator who must induce appropriate strategies in their students. In order to explain this new role to teachers involved in French comprehension courses, a self-instruction kit has been developed. A videotape presents the approach which is exemplified with classroom sequences. This videotape is complemented with a study guide which includes theoretical explanations and practical exercises. Teachers can also assess their level of mastery using a self-assessment software before and after their training. This program ensures confidentiality and provides the teacher with a diagnosis in regard of various teaching strategies to be learned. It will also be used to research the impact of video techniques on vocational training.
