Abstract

Innovative approaches to teaching and learning are needed in schools and universities to provide new ways for students to engage with content and language. In particular, advances in personal digital technologies over the last 10 years enable students to create a variety of digital media forms such as podcasts, vodcasts, screencasts, videos, digital stories and animations using their own technologies such as smart phones and Ipads. Whilst each digital media form has its own affordances for learning and purpose, they can also be integrated or “blended” to provide new ways for students to make meaning and communicate. Blending digital media is especially engaging if students understand the features of particular genre and use their own technologies and select the most appropriate “blend” to provide a quality digital explanation.

Research has documented that attempting to improve the quality of personal relationships among stakeholders was instrumental to better school climate, staff morale, and public confidence in schooling.The current study was carried out in boys’ secondary schools located in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. The population of the study included all the parents whose children were studying in those schools.

Abstract

The teaching of English as a second/foreign language in the world at large has taken a new turn in the context of globalization.  In accordance with the changing needs, materials for use in language teaching and strategies adopted have also seen substantial change.The present paper discusses the principal reasons for English acquiring a global status.  With such change coming over, there has been a proliferation of Englishes and every country teaching this language has the difficult decision to make a choice of the variety.  Besides the variety, the academic interests are also at stake.Another change that concerns the academics in the field of English language teaching pertains to harness English across curriculum. This aspect of language teaching needs to focus on specialized vocabulary.  Facilities to identify the words required for special branches of study and their uses are available through corpus analysis. How do we capture such diverse needs and harness the facilities available in our daily teaching forms the theme of this presentation.
