The Utilization of Audiovisual Techniques in Teaching English as a Second Language to Adults
Abstract
The purpose of this paper is primarily to encourage the use of
more audiovisual techniques in adult English as a Second Language classes.
The field of adult education lacks good commercial audiovisual aids,
in part because Adult English Education is a relatively new field, and
also because educators are not concerned with making learning as fun
for adults as they make it for children. I believe adult education should
be entertaining, and therefore, I have researched audiovisual techniques
to see how they must be utilized and how they are applicable to Second
Language teaching.
