Nowadays, corpus linguistics, "an approach to linguistic research that relies on computer analyses of language"(Brown,2007), is providing with enough pieces of real language use and this is so, thanks to the use of technology.Lisbethhttp://lisbethbelisario.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2193845828361809199.post-6345808367096286352011-06-24T09:48:05.875-07:002011-06-24T09:48:05.875-07:00Hi Nai.

I think that this is what podcasting actually aims at: fostering critical thinking and contributing to the creation of autonomous learners. Under this framework, I asked my students to summarize a maritime english article and then to record their works by using audacity, mp3 skype recorder or their mobile phones. What they told me was intrinsically related to what you stated in your reflection. They had to edit, listen to their records over and over again, and in doing so, they realized what mistakes they had.Albis Tovarhttp://ictintefl2011.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
