Computer assisted language learning has evolved over time based on theories of language teaching. Early behavioristic CALL in the 1950s presented material individually, while communicative CALL in the 1970s focused on using grammar implicitly and communicating rather than just forms. Today, computers provide tools for language learning through programs for grammar, listening, pronunciation and reading. Communicative CALL is based on learning, while integrated CALL utilizes multimedia and internet resources in language instruction.
This document discusses the three phases of computer assisted language learning (CALL). The first phase from the 1950s-1970s was behavioristic CALL, based on behaviorist learning theories, which involved repetitive drills and practice. The second phase was communicative CALL, and the third phase is integrative CALL, which integrates language and technology.
Information and Communication Technologies ( ICT )GiSi96
ICT stands for Information and Communication Technologies. ICT can be understood as having four main components - Computing, Communications, Content, and human Capacity. The recent World Summit on the Information Society focused on communications, content, and capacity building. For users to fully benefit from ICT, there must be Awareness of what ICT can do, Availability within reasonable proximity, Accessibility so anyone can use it, and Affordability so it is not too costly.

The document discusses the advantages of using information and communication technologies (ICT) in learning and teaching processes. It notes that for most European countries, using ICT in education has become a priority in the last decade. ICT tools are seen as very helpful for students, as they can help with assignments and enable those with special needs. Both students and teachers view ICT positively, with teachers using ICT to support traditional learning methods and allow students to take a more active role in the learning process.
The document summarizes the key events that led to the American Revolution. Tensions grew between the British colonies in America and Britain after the French-Indian War left Britain with large war debts. King George III began taxing the colonies directly through taxes like the Stamp Act to raise revenue, angering the colonists. Acts of protest like the Boston Tea Party were met with retaliation by Britain through measures like the Intolerable Acts. The First and Second Continental Congresses were formed to unite the colonies in their resistance. This led to the first battles of the Revolutionary War at Lexington and Concord in 1775. Finally, the Declaration of Independence was approved on July 4, 1776, declaring the colonies independent from Britain.
Congress makes federal laws. Its main powers are enumerated in Article I of the Constitution, including levying taxes, regulating commerce, declaring war, and borrowing money. The "necessary and proper" clause allows Congress to extend its powers to new situations. For example, Congress used the commerce clause to pass civil rights legislation. The President executes federal laws as commander-in-chief of the armed forces and appoints officials. The Supreme Court interprets laws and the Constitution through judicial review, declaring laws unconstitutional.

This document compares and contrasts the basic principles and characteristics of capitalism, socialism, and communism. Capitalism involves private property ownership and free market competition. Socialism incorporates both private and public property ownership as well as a regulated market. Communism entails public property ownership, centralized government control of the economy, and an absence of competition. The document outlines key differences in terms of ownership, operation, choice, government involvement, competition, and prominent historical supporters of each economic system.
This document discusses different positions on the political spectrum from left to right. It defines liberal/left as favoring an active government role in social reform, poverty, education and environment. Conservative/right favors a limited government that stays out of citizens' lives except on moral issues. Moderate views fall between these. It also discusses far left radical views wanting fundamental system changes and far right reactionary views advocating return to past systems, even using violence. It provides examples of where different parties and ideologies fall on this spectrum.
