ICT promote autonomy among ESL/EFL learners: myth or reality?engedukamall
Thang, S. M. (2014, September). ICT promote autonomy among ESL/EFL learners: myth or reality?. Paper presented at the meeting of KAMALL Annual Conference 2014, Seoul, Korea.
[Abstract]
There is this general belief that the introduction of Information
Communication Technologies (ICT) into classrooms will foster autonomy
among English as a Second language (ESL) and English as a Foreign language
(EFL) learners and this has led to its rapid proliferation in English language
classrooms in most Asian countries. However, to what extent this claim is true
needs to be carefully investigated and the factors leading to its successful
adoption which culminates in autonomy among ESL/ EFL learners and factors
that resulted in failure in adoption need to be identified and deliberated.
There must be an awareness that that the implementation of technology is
not a “panacea for all ills” and its presence will not magically lead to a boost
in student learning or achievement. Despite the plethora of research
undertaken on effects of ICT on ESL/EFL learners there is still a lot that needs
to be learned as most studies undertaken tend to explore the short-term
effects of ICT on language learning and fail to consider the long term effects.
Autonomy cannot be achieved in a short period of time. Hence there is a need
to look into the long term effects which many research studies fail to do.
According to Holec, (1981) autonomous learning has to do with a person’s
ability to take full responsibility of his or her own learning. That includes the
ability to decide what, when, how and for how long learning should take
place. This involves defining goals and objectives, selecting appropriate
materials, techniques and approaches, and finally evaluating outcomes. How
can ICT help students acquire such skills and what are the teachers’ roles in
the process? This paper will attempt to provide a balance view on the effects
of ICT on language learning and the promotion of autonomy through a review
of relevant literature and research studies. Finally, it will answer the question
posed in the title and in the process offers suggestions on how autonomy can
be successful promoted and fostered in an online environment through the use
of technology. Possible methods that can possibly contribute to the successful
promotion of autonomy in online environment include providing: (1) stimulating and interesting online materials; (2) online programs to develop self-regulated
learning strategies; (3) scaffolding in the form of instruction on resources to use
and guidelines on appropriate path to choose; (4) regular assessment tasks for
students to measure their own progress on an ongoing basis. In addition,
online platforms that offer opportunities for sharing of information and
undertaking of group activities or projects are also good avenues to develop
autonomy. Studies that implement such approaches well as others will be
reviewed and discussed.
Teaching in a Hybrid Virtual ClassroomZac Woolfitt
Media and Learning - Online conference https://media-and-learning.eu/event/media-learning-online-autumn-2021/
Many teaching staff are now faced with a situation where they are not only expected to continue to teach students remotely online, but are also dealing with the learning needs of students in the class with them. This type of teaching goes by a variety of different names, Hybrid, HyFlex, Flexible, Dual Mode to name but a few. Supporting teaching staff in this situation can be a challenge as they and the services that facilitate them struggle with what for many is a juggling act that far too often results in one group of students feeling left out. During this presentation and discussions session, experienceed practioners will share their tips and suggestions for making hybrid work well from a pedagogical as well as a technical point of view.

Following a needs and impact assessment at Simon Fraser University, a curriculum focused on developing job search skills for EAL (English as an Additional Language) learners emerged. This curriculum has now been trialled with new international students in a pilot program at Fraser International College.
The findings of the impact assessment show that the curriculum has not only resulted in students having a better understanding of how to prepare for the job market post-graduation, but there has also been a positive impact on these students' motivation for academic study.
In this recording, Sharla Reid and Heather Williams discuss and share results from a pilot program. This program highlights the collaborative efforts between FIC and partner institution, Simon Fraser University to find new ways to adapt curriculum for new purposes while increasing student retention and engagement.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
