Technology in language learning within educational centres is not the future, but the present of education. The use of new technology in the classroom has become the perfect complement to mastering or gaining command of a language, and English courses accompanied by technological support are the most effective and attractive to students who want to be successful in their learning.

Technology in language learning at the service of teachers

#1 The best complementary tool for teachers in the classroom

Educational technology today is advantageous for teachers in so many ways. Traditional education is not so efficient anymore and teachers need to motivate their students more than ever when presenting any material in the classroom. Books are taking a back seat and new technology means that classes can be much richer in content and more participative than before.

The Why Teacher Training is a Key Factor in Eduactional Excellence methodology from Dexway helps educational centres to implement a blended learning method that has demonstrated great success in the classroom. It equips the teacher with a complete manual on giving face-to-face English classes, with unlimited exercises and activities for all levels and lessons, with the objective that the students are much more active and involved in the classroom.

#2 Technology in language learning is motivating and stimulating for students

The use of technology as much in the classroom as outside it makes the students feel much more motivated, using devices with which they can practice a language through features such as voice recognition and interactive multimedia exercises etc. For young students it's much more stimulating to learn with a tablet or smartphone than with a traditional textbook and its CD of practice exercises. Technology in language learning transforms students from passive recipients to active learners and allows more profound and enriching linguistic immersion. Students can study their English course using a variety of comprehensive apps which are able to synchronize even without the internet.

#3 Ease in managing and monitoring student progress

Making and keeping lists of groups of students, managing courses, evaluating students with tests and exams, and many other tasks which are administrative in nature, are these days managed thanks to online educational platforms which offer innumerable functionalities tailored to educational centres' needs.

Not only do they give educational institutions the best and most effective control over activities such as activating student accounts, creating groups, sending out communications and automatic notifications etc., but also they can perform important tasks such as monitoring the progress of students through specialised software.

Dexway has developed the Create Test function which allows teachers to design their tests, partially or fully, from a menu of questions in the database the same as he or she could create him/herself.

Subsequently, when the students have taken these tests, they can be run through Dexway Analytics in order to obtain real time reports on the results of each course, lesson or objective. This way it can be seen if objectives have been attained in order to suggest activities or exercises to revise in the classroom.

Learning English in a classroom is much more effective when complemented with educational technology

#4 Create a unique experience as much for the teacher as the students

The flipped classroom method in English courses, along with technology in language learning to complement it, is turning English classrooms into an environment where sharing, debating, creating and forming opinions is nurtured, a space which is much more creative and participatory. English classes stop being boring and bland with a teacher merely explaining something at a blackboard, and become much more active in all senses.

Learning is better with virtual whiteboards, the students are a lot more involved, and online exercises and interactive multimedia content are motivating for them.

#5 Promote interactivity and collaboration within learning

The use of new technology allows students to be much more creative and participative in the classroom. They prepare a basis of knowledge outside the classroom engaging with all the content in the course, when they arrive to the classroom they share this knowledge with the rest of the students and the teacher to demonstrate what they have learnt and reinforce it in a coordinated way.

Educational technology allows students to be much better prepared for class, and provides teachers with attractive resources to make their classes much more human and sociable, where all students have the opportunity to participate regardless of their level.

When used alongside traditional teaching, new technology can differentiate between educational centres, taking English teaching one step further in paying attention to diversity in the classroom and enriching the language learning process.

Why Do Students Prefer Blended Learning over Traditional Learning?

Why Do Students Prefer Blended Learning over Traditional Learning?

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
In the last four years, the number of students who prefer Blended Learning over traditional learning (face-to-face) has been increasing. According to the study called " Study of Undergraduate Students and Information Technology," published at the end of 2017 by the EDUCAUSE Center for Analysis and Research (ECAR), students are increasingly interested in blended learning while traditional learning loses popularity.

By understanding what a blended learning education consists of, it is easy to understand the reasons that have led to this paradigm shift. Blended learning, also called semi-presential, hybrid or mixed learning, is the efficient combination of classwork and online study through LMS learning platforms that students can access from anywhere and at any time.

This type of teaching breaks free from the inflexibility of schedules and spaces of traditional teaching and offers new generations a close relationship with technology in education. This allows a more interactive and valuable learning experience, and the schools that choose this method greatly improve their students' educational experience.

Advantages of Blended Learning for Students

# 1 Access to more resources

Learning platforms' virtual environments provide access to all kinds of multimedia and interactive contents that significantly expand classroom teaching materials. Dexway language courses, in SCORM-compatible LMS platforms or through CAE's LMS specialized in languages ( Voluxion), immerse students in the course subject matter and include additional readings, videos, karaoke, magazines and forums...an added value to language teaching.

Students prefer blended learning because of the variety of online resources they can access to supplement their classwork.

# 2 Greater control of their learning

With access to these virtual platforms, students have greater control over their courses and can study at their own pace by reviewing the syllabus at any time and anywhere. This is especially important for students with special needs as it allows them to keep up with the pace in the classroom and reinforce what they've studied outside of class by using a variety of pleasant content that helps them stay interested and keep up the effort.

Students prefer blended learning because they are in control of the scheduling that access to an LMS educational platform gives them.

# 3 Relationship with new technology

For new generations, such as millennials, their relationship with technology defines their entire lifestyle. It is therefore natural that they also want it to be part of educational models. Dexway courses are accessible from any web browser on a PC, Mac, Android or iOS smartphone. In addition, different applications for each operating system allow offline access, without losing any progress.

Students prefer blended learning because it allows them to study in a digital environment with virtual tools that they are comfortable with and frequently use in their daily lives.

The e-learning market, which includes all blended learning methods, (face-to-face classes, online classes, inverted classrooms, digital extensions of support, etc.), has been growing for years, according to analysts and will remain at a rate of over 5% per year at least until 2024 (Global Market Insights). It's clear that students do not hesitate to take advantage of all the benefits of blended learning and it is a trend that will continue in the years to come.

What's new on the horizons for edtech and its implementation in the classroom? We checked with the experts to get their 2019 predictions.

As 2018 winds down, the Mango Languages team is gearing up for another amazing year. 2019 will bring more of the language learning you love, and as education technology continues to evolve, we evolve along with it.

In order to stay up to date on the latest technology and ways to implement it in your classroom, here are five expert predictions for edtech trends in 2019.

1. Blended learning in K-12 is here to stay

According to Dr. Matthew Lynch, award-winning author and editor for The Edvocate, blended learning is here to stay! Think of it as less of a trend, and more of the way our reality is changing for good. Dr. Lynch's vision for the future includes AI-based tutoring systems, broadcasted lessons, and access to interactive classroom experiences all over the world.

In flipped classrooms, which often go hand-in-hand with blended learning, students get the best of both worlds: in-classroom instruction and group-learning experience, with at-home access to continue their lessons with the added benefit of becoming digitally literate.

While there are many advantages to this mode of learning, there are some issues to consider, such as the fact that not all students have equal access to technology at home. Schools are overcoming this barrier by arranging after-school wi-fi access for students, or dedicating some in-classroom time to online learning.

Wondering what blended-learning tech best suits your world language classroom? Check out our list of to make sure you're making the right investment. 10 essential features to look for in language-learning software

2. Augmented intelligence on the rise

, emphasizes that AI "Augmented intelligence, the way humans interact with artificial intelligence (AI), isn't just a way of the future - it's here and now. Ben Dickson, founder of TechTalks is a complement-not a replacement-to human intelligence." In fact, 85 percent of Americans are already using AI , and we can only expect that number to increase.

In the education sphere, this means help with grading (and more time for other things!), immediate feedback for students, and better research tools.

Senior scholar and adjunct professor at Georgetown University, Bryan Alexander sees this trend growing on college campuses in the form of AI experiments. "In 2019, I see more experiments with automated staff - experiments like Jill Watson (Georgia Tech's first AI teaching assistant) and automated campus information bots - becoming more popular."

3. More opportunities for personalized and adaptive learning

Learning is never a one-size-fits-all solution, which is why personalized and adaptive learning is the way forward. For teachers, a learning system that adapts to an individual student's needs helps meet the challenge of having to teach to multiple levels within a single classroom, allowing students to focus on and review the material that is most relevant to them.

According to the Christensen Institute, personalized learning can be achieved even without the latest tech - . Schools across the world are taking advantage of their computer labs in an effort to engage their classrooms in personalized learning, using adaptive learning programs to track and reinforce student progress. the most important focus is the strategy, the teachers

Expect educators to find more ways to implement personalization and adaptive learning into their classrooms in 2019 and beyond.

4. Immersive technology becomes more available

While immersive technology is already being used in some classrooms, improved hardware and software, plus the looming availability of 5G, means better access for more communities. The researchers at Gartner predict that by 2022, with immersive technologies in some way. 70% of enterprises will be experimenting

As the quality of these tools grow, teachers will be able to adapt their classrooms and lesson plans to make the most of the technology, which can be used in every field of study, from STEM subjects to language learning.

5. Schools may need to adapt at a foundational level

In an interview with EdTech , Rachel Gorton, instructional technology coordinator for Burnsville-Eagan-Savage School District 191 in Minnesota, discussed the future of technology in the classroom from a student-centered point of view.

( District 191 has gained attention in the media for its implementation of a major redesign that includes flexible learning spaces, technology-enhanced classrooms, new science classrooms, and personal learning devices for high school and middle school students.)

In order to make sure student outcomes were at the heart of this endeavor, 36 classrooms were added to their high school, designed with collaboration in mind: There is no 'front' of the classroom anymore, and most of the furniture is on wheels. The students' learning pathway has been completely redesigned as well, offering students 14 different pathways they can take to achieve their desired outcome after graduation, whether that be college or entering the workforce.

When asked how to make sure student learning and pedagogy remain a focus as innovation continues, Gorton gave the following advice to educators willing to embrace the future of edtech:

"Be willing to examine everything. We looked at the classes we were offering to students; we looked at the time and space and how students are moving through their day and their year and their education as a whole; we looked at where they're going next and how we are preparing them. It's a big shift, but it's also very, very rewarding."

This article shares the experiences and personal reflections of six self-professed 'digital immigrant' teachers in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah. They all experimented in using technology to teach English in classrooms filled with tech-savvy, 'digital native' students.

As the English language supervisor for Kota Kinabalu district in Sabah, Malaysia, I'm in charge of assisting English language teachers in my district with their professional development needs. One of the areas that many English teachers in Kota Kinabalu seems to struggle with is technology integration in the language classroom. Teachers generally find the idea fascinating, yet many lack the confidence to do it.

I really wanted to assist the teachers in my district, so I got in touch with a local expert in the field, Dr Lee Kean Wah from Universiti Malaysia Sabah (UMS). Together, we organised a series of teacher sharing sessions. The sessions provided the opportunities for the teachers to learn some technology tools and share best practices with one another.

PowToon

One of the participants was Tok Fen Fen, a self-professed 'digital immigrant', who teaches in St Francis Convent Secondary School. According to Tok, the sharing sessions gave her the confidence to "just go for it". For a start, Tok decided to use PowToon to make her English lessons more engaging for her students. "I'm no expert in PowToon," Tok told me. "But I told my students that we can explore this together." Her students used PowToon to create animated presentations on a variety of topics in English. Through the experience, Tok learned that it's not necessary for her to be a technology expert in order to be using technology in the classroom. "I thought I was supposed to be the one teaching my students," Tok said. "But I ended up letting them teach me instead."

Instagram

Tok's conclusion was echoed by Connie Maskilone, who teaches in Tebobon Secondary School. Connie's students love social media and Instagram is their favourite. "I had a hard time getting them to learn English idioms," Connie said. "Then I saw how much they love Instagram. That gave me an idea. Connie started to post images of idioms on Instagram and asked her students to explain the meanings. She expected the students to simply type their answers in the comment section, yet the Instagram-loving teenagers went a step further. They made short video clips to explain the idioms, posted the clips on their Instagram account and tagged their teacher and friends. Connie found that impressive. "They had fun with it," said Connie. "And they learned the idioms!"

PowerPoint

Felicity F. Malanggin teaches in Kota Marudu 2 Primary School. As most of her students can't afford to buy computers, they only have access to them when they visit the school's computer lab. "The students learned how to use PowerPoint," Felicity said. "They are crazy about it now." She taught them the basics, gave them some simple assignments to work on and let the students decide what they wanted to do with it. The results were mind-blowing. With the freedom given to them to explore as they wish, the children were able to turn PowerPoints into a tool for digital story-telling. "Now we're working on converting the children's digital stories into short movie clips," Felicity said.

YouTube

Claire Leslie Sylvester, who teaches at Kota Kinabalu High School wanted her students to learn and love English literature. It was quite a daunting task. Noticing her students' obsession with YouTube, Claire decided to assign a video project where the students would have to produce a short video clip based on a short play of their choice. The result was amazing. The students were able to rewrite the scripts and produce video-clips of themselves acting out the plays. "As teachers, we have to equip ourselves with technology so we won't be left behind," Claire said. "Otherwise we'll be irrelevant in the classroom."

Kahoot

Perry Ronald Lim from Shan Tao Secondary School claims that he likes using technology in his English language lessons. Perry uses presentation slides and word processing a lot, and his reason is simple. "I just want to be able to reuse the materials," he said. Perry sees his use of technology as "nothing really special." "Most of the time, it's just a substitute for the marker pens and whiteboard."

Perry was excited to learn about the various ways of using technology in the language classroom through the sharing sessions. Finding out about the latest Web 2.0 tools helps him to "keep up with the students' energy level." According to Perry, technology creates a "fun and competitive atmosphere" which enhances his students learning. His favourite is Kahoot, the fun online quiz maker. He discovers that Kahoot can be used as a creative way to assess his students' mastery of a topic.

VLE Frog, Padlet, Voki...

"I thought, I'm too old to learn new skills," Iris Leong Siew Lee from All Saints Secondary School, confided in me. "I'm turning 50 years old this year." After the teacher sharing sessions, this 'digital immigrant' teacher ended up using VLE Frog, Kahoot, Padlet, Google Docs, AnswerGarden and Voki in her language lessons. Iris told me that one thing led to another. "Ripples spread out when a single pebble is dropped into water," she said. "Whenever I experimented with one thing, it opened the door for another thing. It just went on and on." Iris teaches pre-university level, and her job is to prepare her students for the Malaysian University English Test (MUET). "Technology has made learning for MUET a lot more interesting for my students," said Iris. "Using technology has great positive impacts on my students' learning."

Talking to these teachers has inspired me in many ways. They all agree that using technology is a way to open up doors of opportunities for their students. "I'm not trying to teach my students everything - I don't know everything," said Iris. "As a teacher, my main duty is to provide my students with the opportunities to learn. I think technology has helped me to do exactly that."

What I found most impressive is how these teachers used their students' interests to create fun and meaningful learning experiences through technology. "I know that my students use Instagram a lot, so I don't have to teach them how to use it," said Connie. "I just need to find a way for them to use it to learn English."

Some of the teachers think that they still don't have all the necessary ICT skills, yet they decided to use technology anyway. They believe that their 'digital native' students are more than capable of figuring things out through exploration and discovery. A common theme that seems to appear more than once is this: the teachers ended up learning from their students. According to the teachers, their experiences made them realise that they don't have to be experts in technology in order to start using technology in the classroom. "So what if I'm not tech-savvy?" said Tok. "My students are. I can always rely on them."

Top 6 benefits of using technology in the classroom

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
It is important to acknowledge that students are already interested and engaged in using technology, this creates many amazing opportunities for schools and teachers to benefit from integrating some forms of technology in the classroom and to make teaching and learning more effective. Here are some of the main benefits of using technology in the classroom. Improves engagement
When technology is integrated into lessons, students are expected to be more interested in the subjects they are studying. Technology provides different opportunities to make learning more fun and enjoyable in terms of teaching same things in new ways. For instance, delivering teaching through gamification, taking students on virtual field trips and using other online learning resources. What is more, technology can encourage a more active participation in the learning process which can be hard to achieve through a traditional lecture environment.
Improves knowledge retention
Students who are engaged and interested in things they are studying, are expected to have a better knowledge retention. As mentioned before, technology can help to encourage active participation in the classroom which also is a very important factor for increased knowledge retention. Different forms of technology can be used to experiment with and decide what works best for students in terms of retaining their knowledge.
Encourages individual learning
No one learns in the same way because of different learning styles and different abilities. Technology provides great opportunities for making learning more effective for everyone with different needs. For example, students can learn at their own speed, review difficult concepts or skip ahead if they need to. What is more, technology can provide more opportunities for struggling or disabled students. Access to the Internet gives students access to a broad range of resources to conduct research in different ways, which in turn can increase the engagement.
Encourages collaboration
Students can practice collaboration skills by getting involved in different online activities. For instance, working on different projects by collaborating with others on forums or by sharing documents on their virtual learning environments. Technology can encourage collaboration with students in the same classroom, same school and even with other classrooms around the world.
Students can learn useful life skills through technology
By using technology in the classroom, both teachers and students can develop skills essential for the 21st century. Students can gain the skills they will need to be successful in the future. Modern learning is about collaborating with others, solving complex problems, critical thinking, developing different forms of communication and leadership skills, and improving motivation and productivity. What is more, technology can help develop many practical skills, including creating presentations, learning to differentiate reliable from unreliable sources on the Internet, maintaining proper online etiquette, and writing emails. These are very important skills that can be developed in the classroom.
Benefits for teachers
With countless online resources, technology can help improve teaching. Teachers can use different apps or trusted online resources to enhance the traditional ways of teaching and to keep students more engaged. Virtual lesson plans, grading software and online assessments can help teachers save a lot time. This valuable time can be used for working with students who are struggling. What is more, having virtual learning environments in schools enhances collaboration and knowledge sharing between teachers.
