Curs interactiu i multimèdia destinat a l'aprenentatge autònom de la prosòdia

Abstract

In view of the importance of information and communication technologies in today’s society and the process of adapting educational programmes to the European Higher Education Area in which universities are enmeshed, there is a need for new ways of learning which make both independent study and dealing with the subjects in both classroom and out-of-classroom settings possible. The purpose of this project is to create an interactive, multimedia theoretical-practical website in which students can learn about prosody (with information, literature, links, image and sound documents analysed and commented, exercises and self-tests). The goal is for the contents to cover the needs of two groups: those who want to embark on basic research in linguistics, and those who want to improve their communication skills. The results of the introduction of this innovation as a support to the classroom work are promising from both the quantitative and qualitative standpoint.
