  • Hello English Efficacy Study
    Hello English Efficacy Study FINAL REPORT RESEARCH TEAM ROUMEN VESSELINOV1,2, PhD Economics Department Queens College, City University of New York [email protected] JOHN GREGO, PhD Statistics Department University of South Carolina [email protected] March 2017 1 Corresponding author. 2 This report represents the individual opinion of the authors and not necessarily of the two institutions. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Hello English (HE) efficacy study was independently conducted by the Research Team from September, 2016 to January, 2017. The study was based on a random representative sample of 97 students in India from grades 8 to 12 from three schools: one government and two private schools. The research goal for this study was to test whether the introduction of HE as an additional tool for learning English as a foreign language would significantly improve students’ language skills compared to their classmates who did not use the new tool. The students were randomly assigned to two groups: the HE group, which was given access to the HE app in addition to the regular school instruction and the Control group, which continued with their regular school classes with no access to the app. The participants took one English oral proficiency test in the beginning of the study, and the same test at the end of the study. The improvement in language abilities was measured as the difference in levels between the final and the initial language tests. MAIN RESULTS HE English Language Oral Proficiency Gain: Overall, 73% of the HE students improved their language proficiency by at least one level compared to 42% of the Control group.

  • Language Learning Applications for the Education 4.0
    IOSR Journal Of Humanities And Social Science (IOSR-JHSS) Volume 24, Issue 2, Ser. 9 (Feb. 2019) 22-26 e-ISSN: 2279-0837, p-ISSN: 2279-0845. www.iosrjournals.org Language Learning Applications for the Education 4.0 Angvarrah Lieungnapar Business English program, the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, Suan Sunandha Rajabhat University, Bangkok, Thailand, Abstract: Education 4.0 not only plays an important role of language learning and teaching in Thailand recently, but also suggests a new and challenging role of educators in developing learners’ abilities to apply the new technology for their learning. Due to the changes of educational principle in Thailand, language learning needs to be evolved from traditional methods with innovative tools designed to best fit learners' needs. A new and popular form of language learning is through applications on a mobile device. While there are a large number of applications available for language learning, it is not clear to what extent the applications can help develop language learning. This study, therefore, aims to review popular language learning applications on mobile phones in order to see to what extent the applications can help develop language learning in the era of education 4.0. This study reveals that each application has different elements that serve different needs. However, some of them share the same key elements to enhance language learning such as authentic materials (e.g. real-life dialogue with varieties of native speakers), learning motivation (e.g. learning through interactive games), progress tracking, and self-evaluation. Although these elements seem to help promote learning in a long term, there are some other missing elements that are also necessary for language learning.

  • Student Resources Some Students Are So Motivated to Learn English That They Want More Practice Than They Get in a Classroom
    1 Student Resources Some students are so motivated to learn English that they want more practice than they get in a classroom. Some students may not have access to a classroom situation. This document meets those needs by providing resources that students can use independently to increase their skills and knowledge in English. (Ctrl + Click to go to a topic) Free Programs from Your Library Free Websites and Apps for Language Learning Programs Links to Independent Learning 2 Free Programs from Your Library There are some great language-learning platforms that unfortunately come with a high price tag. Here's the great news: depending on where you live, you might be able to use them free. How is this possible? Your library membership could be the gateway to learning a language. 1. Many libraries provide free access to Mango Languages. The mix of reading and listening activities, critical thinking exercises, and review that is personalized to the learner are available in more than 70 languages. For English language learners, there are courses tailored to speakers of more than 20 native languages. Many of the libraries that offer Mango Languages also offer Little Pim, language-learning developed specifically for children. To locate an organization that offers Mango Languages near you, go to Find Mango. Some libraries offer membership to anyone who lives or works in their state. Here are some that offer that level of membership including access to Mango Languages: Philadelphia Free Library, Pennsylvania Brooklyn Public Library, New York Enoch Pratt Free Library, Maryland 2. Many libraries offer Rosetta Stone, which for a long time was sold on CDs.

Para conocer las ventajas que pueden ofrecer en entornos educativos no universitarios, es necesario, en primer lugar, estudiar y analizar las aplicaciones más importantes en educación a nivel global, revisando los mercados de aplicaciones y las recomendaciones de los expertos en la materia. De esta forma, se pueden organizar las apps que son referencia y clasificarlas siguiendo varios criterios: por funcionalidad, por los usuarios a quién están orientadas (alumnos, profesores, familiares, etc.) o por la etapa educativa en que se pueden utilizar y aprovechar así al máximo sus ventajas. Las aplicaciones móviles son especialmente importantes en el caso de alumnos con necesidades educativas especiales y dentro de este grupo, especialmente beneficiosas para alumnos diagnosticados con Trastorno del Espectro Autista (TEA). Como caso práctico para apoyar la idea de que las apps pueden resultar muy beneficiosas en estos casos, se ha diseñado y desarrollado el prototipo de una aplicación totalmente funcional, para el sistema operativo Android, que permite que los tres actores implicados en el proceso educativo de un alumno con TEA (padres, profesores y terapeutas), tengan un sistema de gestión y evaluación de objetivos cuando se trabaja con el alumno.

April, 2009. 59 pages. Advisor: Michael Van Fossen Recently, the increased availability of Creative Commons licensed Japanese reference sources, the increased popularity of mobile software, and the development of social language learning networks has given rise to a new class of free and cost efficient resources for learning Japanese. Although many are still in the early stages of development, a number of these have reached a level of high quality sufficient to rival even the expensive, in-place product leaders in language learning. Some of these new resources are even surpassing the genre's leaders in the features that they offer. This bibliography explores the resources currently available for learning the Japanese language in English and includes use-based evaluations on the products leaders in the field, innovative resources of high potential, and a number of lesser known resources also.

  • Emerging Technologies Mobile Apps for Language Learning
    Language Learning & Technology June 2011, Volume 15, Number 2 http://llt.msu.edu/issues/june2011/emerging.pdf pp. 2–11 EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES MOBILE APPS FOR LANGUAGE LEARNING Robert Godwin-Jones Virginia Commonwealth University It wasn’t that long ago that the most exciting thing you could so with your new mobile phone was to download a ringtone. Today, new iPhone or Android phone users face the quandary of which of the hundreds of thousands of apps (applications) they should choose. It seems that everyone from federal government agencies to your local bakery has an app available. This phenomenon, not surprisingly has led to tremendous interest among educators. Mobile learning (often “m-learning”) is in itself not new, but new devices with enhanced capabilities have dramatically increased the interest level, including among language educators. The Apple iPad and other new tablet computers are adding to the mobile app frenzy. In this column we will explore the state of language learning apps, the devices they run on, and how they are developed. THE CHANGING MOBILE ENVIRONMENT As long as there have been portable audio-video and computing devices, there has been interest in exploring their use in language learning. As portable cassette players yielded to iPods and other MP3 players, the new capabilities of the hardware led to enhanced use of audio-based learning such as language podcasts with integrated transcripts. As PDA’s (personal digital assistants) became more widespread with the advent of the Palm Pilot and its successors, language dictionaries, e-book grammars, and flashcard programs began to appear. Palm also was the producer of some of the first smartphones, which integrated PDA functions with new capabilities including SMS messaging, built-in cameras, and voice recording.
