hampel_online_2006 misc Guide to Good Practice aimed at those who teach or support teaching in higher education Online teachers need different skills than those normally employed by tutors trained to teach languages in a face-to-face classroom and they also require different skills compared to online teachers of other subjects. Research shows that the medium influences the form of communication and interaction (see e.g. Hutchby 2001). The asynchronicity of communication in written conferencing and the lack of non-verbal clues in audio-conferencing are examples of new challenges for online language tutors.

A review of the literature on the roles and competencies required for tutors operating at a distance indicates that the specific context of language teaching has received relatively little attention from researchers in the field. There has, however, been considerable interest in the skills and attributes necessary for face-to-face language teaching in the classroom, which is outlined here. Issues of definition and research perspective are discussed, as well as the advantages and disadvantages of various research approaches. The different stages and outcomes of the collaborative project are described in detail, demonstrating how the unfolding research design allowed opportunities for consultation, reflection, and responsive changes. The next stages of consultation are outlined, together with implications for the on-going professional development of tutors. {??????It??????s} a unique role!??????

The eight-week project connected Spanish-speaking English-language learners at a primary school in Catalonia with English-speaking Spanish-language learners at a Scottish primary school. Children were matched in pairs and acted as language tutors in their own mother tongue to their peers. Each week, the children wrote or corrected a text, depending on their role for that week, and sent messages to their peers. During and after the intervention, data were collected in the form of observations, participant and teacher interviews, and analysis of student writing in the target languages. The results of this study show how Internet technology can be leveraged with reciprocal peer tutoring to enhance language learning. Let Me Learn with My Peers Online!: Foreign Language Learning Through Reciprocal Peer Tutoring March 4 2008 3 2008-03 murch_new_2005 misc The focus of this paper is a challenging analysis of how the roles of teachers and students in different classroom settings are altered as a result of computer-based technologies. I am particularly interested in how the capabilities of computer-based technologies, and technology-enhanced learning environments can enable and{\textbackslash}or constrain innovative pedagogical practices in and elementary school, Gaelic language settings, in Ireland[1]. Powerful new capabilities of computers make it possible to access, represent, process, and communicate information in new ways {(Kozma,} 1991, 1994). These capabilities make it possible to search and organize information, analyze data, represent and transform ideas, simulate complex systems, and communicate with others in ways that were previously not practical or even possible. They also enable new ways of teaching and learning ?????? new activities, new products, and new types of learning and teaching {(Kozma} \& Schank, 1998), but, do all teachers, students and educators feel and agree with the general, positive, societal perception of technology in education? New Teacher and Student Roles in the {Technology-Supported,} Language Classroom {http://www.itdl.org/Journal/Feb\_05/article01.htm} February 2005 http://www.itdl.org/Journal/Feb_05/article01.htm 2005-02 camarra_weblingua_2005 misc The challenges involved with developing and offering online language courses are well-known. There are several common difficulties to overcome, such as lack of participation, low student motivation and high drop-out rates. However, research provides evidence that ??????strong feelings of community may not only increase persistence in courses but may also increase the commitment to group goals, cooperation among members, satisfaction with group efforts, and motivation to learn?????? {(Rovai,} 2002; Dede, 1996; Wellman, 1999). Additionally, active participation in asynchronous forum discussion may result in higher amounts of L2 (second language) output, providing more opportunities for noticing comprehensible input {(Krashen,} 1994) and planning further output {(Swain,} 1993). Finally, several studies show that creating a safe, risk-free environment encourages timid students to participate more than they may in the classroom {(Warschauer,} 1996; Kern, 1995; Chun, 1994). {WebLingua} - Building and sustaining a learning community in asynchronous discussion forums May 2005 http://moodle.lett.unisi.it/mod/resource/view.php?id=10018 {IV} Convegno {AICLU,} Sperimentazione, Ricerca e Didattica nei Centri Linguistici Universitari Italiani, Napoli 2005-05 coryell_implementing_2007 article Computer Assisted Language Learning Implementing {E-Learning} components with adult English language learners: Vital factors and lessons learned 0958-8221 263 20 2007 3 10.1080/09588220701489333 http://www.informaworld.com.libezproxy.open.ac.uk/10.1080/09588220701489333 2007 Taylor, C.
