The use of ICT in EFL: finding the right blend<br />
Beyza Nur Yilmaz (Pilgrims Teacher Training / Ozyegin University)<br />
Blended learning is a common term in education. Learners can benefit<br />
from its use provided that educators find the right blend of educational<br />
technology in teaching. However, this is difficult considering vast<br />
information and availability of tools. In this talk, basic pillars of blended<br />
learning will be outlined and its use in tertiary level with EFL learners will<br />
be showcased.<br />

What makes the online productive level of vocabulary tests difficult?<br />
Wei-Wei<br />
Shen (Feng Chia University)<br />
As little is known about EFL students’ problems of doing online productive<br />
vocabulary tests, based on a classroom study, I will first present a low pass<br />
rate of 60 intermediate range of university students. Then I will show the<br />
analysis of the reasons regarding their errors. Suggestions to improve the<br />
ways of passing the tests are finally given.<br />
