Embodied Pronunciation Part 2: Haptic Hacks and Widgets (TOP-IG)
5/17/2024
Location: CATESOL Zoom room
5/17/2024
Following up on Marsha Chan’s webinar of April 19th, Embodied Pronunciation Part 1: Harnessing Your Inner Power, in this session Dr. William Acton will focus specifically on a core set of embodied pronunciation techniques which use both gesture and touch.
“Hacks” are techniques which are used to indirectly impact speaking accuracy and fluency, such as “fixing” a vowel or consonant, or drills relating to intonation, rhythm and stress.
“Widgets” are techniques which, in principle, can impact the learner’s fluency and intelligibility almost immediately such as moving a “body part” or the entire body--plus touch, to the rhythm of one’s voice as one is speaking, especially in describing a scene in one’s visual field or a highly defined and easily recalled past-experience. (Actors, politicians, voice trainers—and accomplished liars-- often use a range of such “widgets” in their practice.)

Presenter
Bill Acton is Director of the MATESOL at Trinity Western University. His research, publications and teaching have centered on the role of the body in second language learning and, specifically, pronunciation. He and his students, for the last 40 years, have been developing Haptic Pronunciation Teaching, now in version 7.0, The KINTEK Method. Pedagogically, the focus has shifted from gesture to the centrality of touch in (haptic) pronunciation work.

Using H5P’s Speech Recognition for Asynchronous Pronunciation Activities
A Case Study from Portland Community College
Celebrated for its seamless integration with leading Learning Management Systems, H5P (HTML5 Package) has become an increasingly popular choice for creating interactive resources and exercises for ESOL students. At Portland Community College in Portland, Oregon, H5P’s speech recognition capabilities were used to assemble a comprehensive tool to help multilingual students improve their ability to produce suprasegmental features of English.
During the webinar, PCC instructors Patryk Mrozek and Kate Carney will walk participants through the making and implementation of the pronunciation tool, share preliminary qualitative data gathered from instructors and students, and present practical step-by-step instructions for creating custom pronunciation-focused activities in H5P.
