  10. From chat to linguistics • Hallo K!…………………..Ich möchte Education (can't find the German word!) an der Universität studieren, so jetzt bin ich an den Geschichten über es in den Nachrichten interessiert - unglucklicherweise gibt es viele Änderungen jetzt, also muß ich neue Sachen jeden Tag erlernen!Aber wirklich bin ich an viele Sachen interessiert - ich kann nicht für langes konzentrieren! • Hallo L!……..An welcher Universität möchtest Du studieren? Und übrigens, wenn Du sagen willst, daß Du "education" (in Sinne: Lehrerin zu werden) studiern willst, auf Deutsch sagt man "Lehramt", also Du kannst sagen: "Ich möchte Mathematik und Chemie auf Lehramt studieren." Das heißt du willst danach Mathematik und Chemie in einer Schule unterrichten. Wenn du aber "education" im Sinne von Techniken der Lehre (also wie, auf welche Art und Weise usw), dann ist es besser "Pädagogik" zu sagen. "Ich möchte Pädagogik studieren". EUROCALL, 2006

  11. Element in the school curriculum Talk about yourself in the TL Oral presentation Reading mass media (paper based?) Topics taken within the school programme Trip abroad Written work usually presented in hand writing (usually formal – letters, essays etc.) Participants (school students and school teacher) CROSSCALL activities Home page, chat room, forum Recorded with the digital recorder and posted, word processed and posted, discussed in the target language, dialogue (rather than monologue), different sources of collecting materials (Net, HE resources) Browsing on the NET, on-line quizzes, on-line discussions (including posted recorded messages) etc. Chat room/forum discussions using authentic sources, creating web sites etc. Getting on line with people who are in the place you are going to visit Word processed in the TL, both formal (posted home work, presentations) and informal (chat, discussion) Near-peers (a HE (BA/MA) student: either a native speaker or a more experienced language learner), HE teacher, technical support EUROCALL, 2006

  12. Roles and imagesPeers on-line • We tend to prefer small groups than large • We can normally function better with informal rather than formal situations • We would usually try and avoid confrontational and awkward situations Especially when you are younger, we tend to think we are alone in feeling like this and everyone else is more confident and skilful! (Sandra Cornbleet, Ronald Carter) Activity Context Purpose Receivers Topic Oral presentation Classroom Learning teacher/class Any (face-to-face) Chat/discussion on line Learning (?) near peers Any Example Russian chara-dixie.doc EUROCALL, 2006
