Reflection 1

1.) Which courses incorporate the use of computer in the teaching and learning.

We chose 'Twentieth Century Literature' taught by Dr. Mahmudul Hassan as one of the courses that uses computer in the teaching and learning process


2.) Were the computer-based activities related to any of the THREE stages of CALL?

Yes, this course uses a mix of behaviorist and integrative CALL approach.


3.) What are the important concepts in the THREE stages related to the activities?


 Dr.Mahmudul uses the computer as a tool when he gives out link to the students a day before the class to let them study about the topic first. And he would ask the students question to see if they have read the link or not. The uneasiness of not being able to answer his answer forces the students to study the topic thoroughly before entering the class. He also would give out tasks to do through emails and the use of Google Group. Thus the learner-teacher-computer interaction was emphasized.
