Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The Consecutive Interpreting Approach is a foreign language instruction method in which ‘shadowing’ to enhance students’ prosodic awareness and ‘reproduction’ to induce their voluntary output are integrated. The paper based on this approach won the ELEC prize in 2012. With the students’ permission, a part of the lesson was video-recorded and uploaded on the web at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZdPhl5RUqbI Some of the remarkable effects to be noted are that the participants improved their listening skills significantly and that 96 students in the class succeeded in reproducing, orally and in writing, 82.3% of the passage which is comprised of about 200 words.
