Abstract
Teaching materials supplement language input in second language classrooms, requiring teachers to possess the ability to develop their own materials to meet practical teaching needs. However, teachers often face constraints such as time limitations and insufficient training. To address these challenges, this review explores the use of Twee, an online platform utilizing artificial intelligence and its integration with language teaching. Additionally, this review deliberates on potentials of Twee to enhance multimodal input and facilitate vocabulary learning.
在第二语言课堂教学中,教材是语言输入的补充,要求教师具备自编教材的能力,以满足实际教学的需要。然而,教师往往面临时间有限、培训不足等制约因素。为了应对这些挑战,本综述探讨了 Twee 这一人工智能在线平台的使用及其与语言教学的结合。此外,本综述还探讨了 Twee 在加强多模态输入和促进词汇学习方面的潜力。
期刊介绍:
The RELC Journal is a fully peer-reviewed international journal that publishes original research and review articles on language education. The aim of this Journal is to present information and ideas on theories, research, methods and materials related to language learning and teaching. Within this framework the Journal welcomes contributions in such areas of current enquiry as first and second language learning and teaching, language and culture, discourse analysis, language planning, language testing, multilingual education, stylistics, translation and information technology. The RELC Journal, therefore, is concerned with linguistics applied to education and contributions that have in mind the common professional concerns of both the practitioner and the researcher.
