무들의 협력학습도구를 활용한 통역 수업 시스템 설계 및 구현

Abstract

Classes in foreign language interpretation courses are usually done off-line and consist of the following four steps: preparative phase of the subject, preparative phase of specific terms, phase of interpretation practice and phase of feedback. But some problems are observed from the point of view of learning effectiveness. First, students submit to the teacher personally the task of investigating the issue and specific terms so that students can't share the information each other and lose the opportunity to prepare for the class in advance with equality. Second, the oral feedback from peers and the teacher in class is limited with respect to time and content, so that students may not have an opportunity to reflect their performance neither in class nor after class. If students themselves had an opportunity to reflect their performance after class, they would learn more. To provide a solution to these problems, this study proposed the introduction of blended learning in the interpretation class and showed how to implement Moodle system for Interpretation courses. The focus of the design was to use the collaborative learning tools like forum, wiki and glossary. And the web site implemented was applied in a real class for one semester in 2011. Finally, analyzing the result of the survey about effectiveness of the system, this study purposed some suggestions for teachers.
