SECOND LANGUAGE ACQUISITION (SLA) AND RESEARCH IN SLA

TÍTULO: Conducting Foreign Language Learning Research based on Multimedia-Enhanced Instructional Researcher-Developed Appications.

CÓDIGO:061012

CRÉDITOS: 3

TIPO: Fundamental

PROFESOR: Dr. Juan Francisco Coll García.(Universitat Jaume I)

PROGRAMA (Resumen):

This course aims at providing Ph.D. students with ideas, suggestions and instruction on how to start their own research in the field of foreing language learning and new technologies. They will be taught how to tailor their own multimedia-based instructional software in order to collect student-generated data to be used for subsequent analysis. Different research approaches and current trends concerning multimedia-enhanced instruction and foreign language learning/teaching research will be reviewed in order to provide the PhD student with research suggestions and guidance for those interested in writing a doctoral dissertation in this area of knowledge.
