Multimedia English Teaching in China: Theory and Practice (in Chinese) [2001 P. Gu.]

Drawing on project-based CALL literatures (e.g., Barson et al., 1993; Debski, 2000; Stoller, 197; Warschauer et al., 1995, 2000), this paper reports on a 3-year implementation of multimedia English teaching that involved students at different levels in different schools of Suzhou University, based on the model of optimal language learning environments (Egbert & Hanson-Smith, 1999). With empirical data support, it discusses the potential of multimedia computers and networking in optimizing the EFL classroom environment from five aspects: 1) authenticity of language communication; 2) opportunities for linguistic intake and output; 3) cognitive factors and conditions; 4) learning motivation; 5) collaboration and learner autonomy. It stresses the key role of constructivist project-based learning (PBL) approaches in a technology-supported English teaching reform context. It also addresses lessons and policy implications for a large-scale implementation in a tertiary setting in China.
