 As
a foreign language teacher, I have been using iPods to allow my
students to listen to natural language and practice individually.
I then pair the students up and use voice recorders with the iPods
to have the students record their conversations. This allows me
to review students work at a later time as well as provide the students
with audio files they can take home with them to practice with.
Because
of this program, I have been able to spend less time grading oral
lessons in class and can spend more time with students who need
my help.
One
of the only downsides is that some students don't have computers
at home to practice with, putting them at a slight disadvantage
than those students who do. To compensate, I try and allow those
students to have some extra in-class time, but I sometimes wonder
if that's enough.
