Riba, Dalma: Using Video in the Classroom

163 complete course As it has already been started in grammar schools, some primary schools might introduce video experimentally If the hardware is available, it only requires some ingenuity and a hit of planning from teachers. Video can provide unique kinds of teaching. It. can extend learners' access to English and its uses by presenting a greater variety of speakers in a wider range of contexts that can be convincingly treated in a textbook or classroom. It can show language at work within whole systems of interaction, including non-verbal communication, and it can help supply the social and cultural background necessary for the language to be understood fully. It can also make the meaning of difficult language immediately clear; all these advantages will make learners want to watch and learn. Teachers are always encouraged to select and adapt materials to fit in with their own timetables, syllabuses and groups.
