Supporting technologies: 
 The Internet is a powerful tool for assisting a socio-cognitive approach to language teaching, and it is in fact this fit of the Internet with a socio-cognitive approach which largely accounts for the new-found enthusiasm for using computers in the language classroom.
Socio-cognitive approaches are related to the importance of the input, dual-coding theory and image schema theory, which are deeply linked with the visual and experimental relationship of the human being with the world. 
 Students need to be given maximum opportunity for authentic social interaction, not only to provide comprehensible input but also to give students practice in the kinds of communication they will later engage in outside the classroom. This can be achieved through student collaboration on authentic tasks and projects while simultaneously learning both content and language. ]]> 2018-07-03 10:20:43 UTC https://padlet.com/scordeiro048/7mhc1pcyzdah/wish/269255734
