The World we live in is known as VUCA World: Volatile Uncertain Complex Ambiguous We all know these challenging features and at the same time are fighting hard to bring sense to the classroom. In this expedition of adding innovation and creativity, we have found that being an enterprising learner is the key for a teacher. We communicate and intend to accomplish the desired effect. When it fails, we have things to correct and when we succeed, we try to replicate the model. In this presentation, we are proposing the development of Linguistic Simulation to Enhance the Communication Skills of learners of all languages. Primarily, these simulations will be used for the learners who are learning a Second Language (SL) or a foreign language. The cases and observations of the presenter are based on Communication Skills in English. As Indian learners have been learning English as a second language, such a tool and technology will be greatly helpful.

- 12. – increases students’ autonomy and motivation, removes the Linear Model – lowers their anxiety levels – develops team building skills (life skills) – strengthens cooperation and collaborative skills – allows students to experiment with new vocabulary and structures – gives students the freedom to make their own choices and decisions – helps students to identify and understand different cultures and languages – gives the students “I’ve done it, so I can do it” confidence – dismantles the teacher-dominated learning/instruction Virtual Reality, Simulations and Augmented Reality BENEFITS Reference: https://www.languages.dk/ Linguistic Simulations in VR to Enhance Communication Skills | Parveen Sharma
- 13. – can reinforce faulty pronunciation, vocabulary and grammar – might leave teachers feeling ineffective or excluded – allows students to misunderstand and misuse new vocabulary and structures –already effective speakers take advantage – requires preparation – requires more time for the implementation (planning, preparatory stage, adaption of the classroom, materials with “facts” etc.) – might allow less motivated students to withdraw from participation Virtual Reality, Simulations and Augmented Reality Drawbacks Reference: https://www.languages.dk/ Linguistic Simulations in VR to Enhance Communication Skills | Parveen Sharma
- 14. – ensure that the Simulation is of relevance and interest to the students – base subsequent remedial work on observations taken during monitoring – plan new simulations considering the interests of students and their feedback – integrate Communication Skills, language learning simulations with other subjects – design the content for beginners in the medium of the target language – choose a simple topic familiar to most students, even as beginners – construct groups containing mixed or differentiated levels of ability depending on their students’ needs – monitor the groups’ language and participation levels and take notes for constructive feedback Virtual Reality, Simulations and Augmented Reality Solutions Reference: https://www.languages.dk/ Linguistic Simulations in VR to Enhance Communication Skills | Parveen Sharma
