VIDEO TUTORIALS AS POTENTIAL ALLIES IN ESP CLASSROOM
Abstract
The use of video materials as teaching aids in ESP courses has been advised and widely practiced by ESP scholars for decades. In the highly technologically developed and networked world of today which has given rise to a cyber culture and on-line education, video tutorials have emerged not that long ago as a platform for sharing knowledge on various scientific, professional and every-day topics. Bearing this in mind, the paper has an intention to explore how technical video tutorials can be used in ESP classroom with technology students. In view of promoting the deep learning strategy which insists on implementation of digital technologies in the 21st century education, this paper will pinpoint the effects of technical video tutorials on the learning process in ESP settings, observe student reactions to guest tutors and their short video-lectures, and analyze some of the outcomes of this type of instruction.
