🍩 Synchronous Tools 🍩
    If using the “same time, different place” model of communication, some common barriers to implementation of synchronous tools are cost and bandwidth—not only cost and bandwidth on your end, as the individual teacher or the institution, but also to the students. This is especially true with conferencing systems; video/web conferencing requires equipment to deliver but also to receive. Although the benefits of real-time video conferencing are clear—it’s as near to a physical classroom environment as you can get—the software, hardware, and bandwidth necessary on both sides can be more cost-prohibitive than actually physically attending a class.
    Some learning management systems/e-learning systems/virtual learning environments have integrated synchronous tools within the delivery platform—here I’m thinking specifically about Blackboard’s integrated chat and whiteboard features. Although there are still software, hardware, and bandwidth requirements for these tools, the requirements are likely not as cost-prohibitive as those required for video conferencing.
    But when thinking about setting up synchronous discussion, don’t discount the basic, free, “old school” group instant messaging platform, ICQ.

🍩 Asynchronous Tools 🍩
   But when it comes to virtual communication in support of our classes, asynchronous communication is by far the more popular model if for no other reason than the barriers to implementation tend to be much lower—many of these tools are free and require minimal hardware and software. The drawbacks of asynchronous tools are that they are by nature less timely and efficient—they are asynchronous, after all. However, planned excursions with asynchronous tools can turn into synchronous events. In other words, if students and instructors all happen to be logged in to a discussion board, conversation can happen in near-real time.
Common examples of “different time, different place” tools include:
  • Discussion boards: whether integrated into your online learning environment or not (such as Google Groups), well-managed discussion board can produce incredibly rich conversations about the topics at hand.
  • Blogs: my personal favorite, as not only are the students discussing with one another (and the instructor), but they’re learning something about writing for a wider audience who may or may not be listening in. The open nature of blogs also allows for communication between students in other classes at other institutions who are studying the same topics. You might have to make “comment on blogs” count for a grade in order for some students to do it, but such is the nature of the beast—those students probably wouldn’t talk in class, either.
  • Social Networking Sites: Facebook and Twitter can play important roles in your asynchronous communications strategy. Facebook pages for a class can be the destination for up-to-date information about the course, without your students having to friend you (or even one another). Twitter, and Twitter lists, can be useful sites of asynchronous discussion, although not in the threaded format that one is used to seeing in a discussion board setting.
  • E-mail/Listservs: Some people consider mailing lists to be quaint relics of a previous technological age, but it’s hard to argue with the fact that they still work: an e-mail based discussion list does afford one the ability to carry on threaded discussions in a private environment, yet outside the confines of a managed system (for discussion boards). In fact, Google Groups (referenced above) is a threaded discussion board that can also take place via e-mail, putting a different twist on the typical concept of the listserv.

Using Weblogs in Foreign Language Classroom : Possibility and Challenges The web 2 . 0 is developed from web 1 . 0 the web 2 . 0 is created for interactive information such as weblog, wikis, and social network .   It also is recognized to have great potential for effective teaching and learning foreign language . theoretical justification of using Web 2.0        pedagogy has shifted from a cognitive orientation to a social orientation, from context to naturalistic setting, and L2 learning to L2 use. Together with these changes, concepts such as input, interaction, authenticity, and collaboration are recognized as critical factors to determine successful foreign language learning.        Web 1.0 which is characterized as non-participatory, static, read-only entity. In contrast, Web 2.0 technologies provide environments where users can communicate and collaborate in active manners. Thus, web 2....

Computer Assisted Language Learning

Computer   Assisted Language Learning CALL use of a computer in the language learning process. It aim to teach aspects of the language learning process though the medium of the computer. CALL program can be developed for the many parts of the language learning process. CALL program include: the language taught, the language of instruction, the language writing system, the level of the language to be taught, what is to be taught and how it is to be taught. -CALL tutors and tools A tool does not assess the learner. When evaluating a CALL program, it is important to know if it is a tutor or a tool because they have different aims and therefore should be judged on different criteria. -CALL tutor A CALL tutor offers flexibility on several different levels. While technology does offer many opportunities that can be done should be done. Reflection is needed on this issue. -CALL Tool A CALL tool is designed to assist learning -it is part of a larger proces...
