OER Use in Intermediate Language Instruction: A Case Study
Godwin-Jones, Robert
Research-publishing.net, Paper presented at the EUROCALL 2017 Conference (Southampton, United Kingdom, Aug 23-26, 2017)
This paper reports on a case study in the experimental use of Open Educational Resources (OERs) in intermediate level language instruction. The resources come from three sources: the instructor, the students, and open content repositories. The objective of this action research project was to provide student-centered learning materials, enhance student motivation, and encourage learner autonomy. The content modules, designed to complement and supplement materials from the commercial textbook used, represent a variety of disciplines and genres. Grammar tutorials cover the structures typically introduced in intermediate language study. Also included are modules on language self-study, which feature annotated guides to online language resources. To accommodate further student personal or professional interest, students were asked to find and curate additional reading or multimedia content. [For the complete volume, see ED578177.]
