Quizlet and Lyricstraining. A lesson plan

Lesson Plan from the year 2018 in the subject Didactics - English - Miscellaneous, grade: 2,0, http://www.uni-jena.de/ (Institut für Anglistik), course: Theorie und Praxis des Englischunterrichts - Scaffolding in EFL, language: English, abstract: This paper wants to show that Lyricstraining and Quizlet are ideal possibilities for scaffolding. During the last few years the terms ¿globalization¿ and ¿digitalization¿ have become more popular and it is a fact that the world changes faster and faster. The education is not excluded. Languages have a great value for the students and the curricula give them a high priority. English is taught in primary schools and more and more bilingual modules are part of the schedules. Other trends can be seen as well: Three decades ago, the teachers have used blackboards and only a few people have used the internet. Nowadays students grow up with electronic devices. The big amount of smartphones is just one example for this. This change can be seen in schools as well, because more and more blackboards are substituted by smartboards and that changes the way of teaching and the teacher¿s role fundamentally. Scaffolding is one example for this trend. The metaphor for this concept is used to clarify the role of the teacher, because the teacher can be seen as an adviser who helps the students to build their own scaffold. Different options can be used to reach this target.
