...Language Learning & Technology Vol.11, No.1, February 2007, pp. 67-86 External links valid at time of publication ARE THEY WATCHING? TEST-TAKER VIEWING BEHAVIOR DURING AN L2 VIDEO LISTENING TEST Paginated PDF Version Elvis Wagner Teachers College, Columbia University ABSTRACT The accessibility of video technology has made it possible to utilize both the auditory and visual channels to present listening texts in the second language (L2) classroom and on L2 listening tests. However, there has been little research investigating the extent to which L2 listeners actually watch the video monitor when presented with a listening video text. The current study investigated test-taker behavior on an L2 video listening test. Thirty-six test-takers were videotaped while taking a listening test composed of six separate video texts, and the amount of time test-takers made eye contact with the video monitor was computed. An analysis of the data indicated that the group of participants oriented to the video monitor 69% of the time while the video text was played. In addition, the study yielded valuable information concerning the consistency of the test-takers’ viewing behavior. INTRODUCTION Traditionally, the aural input for second language (L2) listening tasks has been delivered by a teacher reading aloud a text for the students. Later, as audio technology developed, a text was recorded on audiotape and played for students. However, with the advent and dissemination...

...UCL-CLIE Pre-sessional courses 2013 UCL Pre-sessionals - Harvard Referencing System 2013 This document explains how you can reference your work according to the Harvard Referencing System (henceforth simply referred to as Harvard). While there are a number of different referencing systems used in academia worldwide, Harvard is the most common and, consequently, is the one most likely to be useful to you in your future academic studies. This is why we expect you to use Harvard for referencing on the Pre-sessional. Once you have been admitted to the university department where you will be studying for your degree, you should, however, check which system your department favours and adapt your referencing practices accordingly. This guide is only an introduction to Harvard, so if you find it does not fully cover your needs or you would like to take a more comprehensive look at Harvard, we suggest that you refer to either: Chapters 5 and 6 of The American Psychological Association. (2010). Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association. Washington DC, USA: American Psychological Association. or: The American Psychological Association (APA) website at: www.apastyle.org. What is referencing? Referencing is a method for standardising and presenting systematically the words and ideas of others in your own writing.
