Description

In Second Language Acquisition, “reciprocal reinforcement” refers to designing lessons so that comprehensible input triggers comprehensible output to build a deeper understanding of the targeted language structures. There are challenges with trying to make this connection when it comes to designing lesson material for EFL courses and especially for content-based courses. Language teachers of any level, and especially those teaching content-based classes should be able to relate to the dilemma, “How can I facilitate a deeper understanding of language and content for my students?” This paper will highlight a unique solution to that dilemma. This paper describes a technique for compiling homemade videos and using them as comprehensible input to first trigger highly intentional guided output in the form of cloze exercises; and then, move toward less intentional guided output in writing assignments and presentations. The visuals in the videos help to activate schemata, a necessary step toward deeper understanding of both language and content. The paper will outline a step process for making tailor-made course videos and provide examples.
