Listening

●Explain the two listening techniques: top-down vs. bottom-up and tell us when you employ each technique for what purpose.

Top-daow
This refers to the use of background knowledge in understanding the meaning of the message. Background knowledge consists of context, that is, the situation and topic, and co-text, in other words, what came before and after. (When usually use this strategy in order to acquire whole meaning of text or speech)

Bottom-up
comprehension is achieved by dividing and decoding the sound signal bit by bit. The ability to separate the stream of speech into individual words becomes more important here, if we are to recognise, for example, the name of a street or an instruction to take a particular bus.
( when usually use this strategy to get specific information or sfecific information)


●What is podcasting? Discuss the benefits of doing podacasting for L2 learners.
A podcast is the name of a digital recording of a radio broadcast or similar program. Podcasts are published on the internet as MP3 files. Interested listeners are able to download these MP3 files onto their personal computer or personal MP3 player of any type The files can be listened to at the convenience of the listener. Learners can listen over and over to any material that is of interest to them.

Benefits

vocabulary

Discussion questions

Read and compare the vocabulary methodologies introduced in this article.

●Which ones are familiar to you? Which one are not familiary to you?
Pronouncing the Word and Methods of Grasping the Meaning are familirar to me. I have studied vocabulary by pronouncing the word and grasping the meaning. I didn't know various ways of learing vocabulary.
Pictures and Drawings is really interesing and new metohod to me.

●Which ones do you think the most useful? Tell three methodologies you want to use for your students?

I regard learning vocabulary as very boring learing. I hope that my students are interested in learinin vocabulary and they feel comportant. Moreover, I want students to enjoy they vocabulary memorizing and learning.
Dramatization, Realia and Pictures and Drawings are really interesting methods to me. I think this methods are good to early child.

●What is lexical approach? Discuss Michael Lewis's four categories. How is this idea different from what you have known about language and language learning?
In lexical approch....
Students learn vocabulary as lexcial phrases or chunks that are ready- made, or prefabrical phrase. Once studnets are learnt, they can manuplate and apply. Moreover, they can learn new expression without teaching.

Computer-Assisted Language Learning

●Discuss 8 key factors of successful language learning (Egbert et al ,1999) What are they? What does each key notion mean?

Key factor is..
1.Learners have opportunities to interact and to negotiate meaning.
2.Learners interact in the target language with an authentic audience.
3.Learners are involved in authentic tasks.
4.Learners are exposed to and encouraged to produce varied and creative language.
5.Learners have sufficient time and feedback.
6.Learners are guided to attend mindfully to the learning process.
7.Learners work in an atmosphere with an ideal stress/anxiety level.

I think that all 8 factors mean learner's participation.
Participation is very important meaning.

●What is Web 2.0? Explain the definition of web 2.0 with example. How is it different from Web 1.0?

Web 2.0 refers to the emergence of a set of applications on the web which facilitate a more socially connected web where everyone is able to add to and edit information online.
