[MUSIC] Hello again.

In this last module, we introduced you

to the idea that language learning does not just happen inside a classroom. But
that language learning should also
happen when students walk out the door. Learners can be encouraged to learn and
practice their English through
language labs, student exchanges, and by helping students themselves
recognize their language resources. Another key concept is that
the advent of the internet has created numerous opportunities for
students and teachers to use the internet to learn and
practice English. Websites and mobile apps are beginning
to help students connect with others in ways that previously
were never possible. Make sure you stay current on your
understanding of which apps and websites your students are using and
encourage the use of your favorites. Finally, we introduced the concept
that language is a passport, and that learners, as they gain autonomy
are actors in their own right, moving about the world and participating
as full members of our global society. Now, thinking about all of those
lofty concepts, let's consider yet another common assumption for
our next essential question. The assumption is language learners should be exposed
only to the forms they are taught. What do you think? Do you think that you should
control
the language that a learner is exposed to? Why or why not? Thanks for watching. And
see you in our last module
where we are going to step away from an examination of the learner
and learning principles and have a little bit of
straight talk about you. We'll see you then. [MUSIC]
