认识到通信技术对语言学习者的重要性,TESOL技术标准工作组为学习者设定了三个目标(Healey等人,2011年):展示多语言世界的技术技能;适当和道德地使用技术;有效地使用技术满足语言学习需求。然而,尽管社交网站(SNS),如Facebook(FB),可能是最常用的通信技术,但它们很少在TESOL技术标准中提及。此外,很少,如果有的话,研究已指定适当的SNS L2使用作为学习目标。本文展示了如何训练二语学习者适当地使用FB,然后提供机会使用该网站的类可以帮助学习者达到三个目标所设定的技术标准任务组。本文首先回顾了以往关于SNS在二语学习者中的使用情况的研究,然后描述了作者在日本一所大学的一门基于CALL的英语课程中使用FB的行动研究。
Recognizing how essential communication technologies have become to language learners, the TESOL Technology Standards Task Force set three goals for learners (Healey et al., 2011): demonstrating skills in technology for a multilingual world; using technology appropriately and ethically; and using technology efficiently for their language learning needs. Nevertheless, despite the fact that social networking sites (SNSs), such as Facebook (FB), are perhaps the most frequently used communication technology, they are rarely mentioned in the TESOL Technology Standards . Moreover , few, if any, studies have specified appropriate SNS L2 use as a learning objective. This paper shows how training L2 learners to use FB appropriately and then providing opportunities to use the site for the class can help learners reach the three goals set by the Technology Standards Task Force. The article first examines previous studies on SNS usage among L2 learners before describing the author’s action research study on the use of FB in a CALL-based English course in a Japanese university.
