  • A Study Involving with Elementary School Teacher Trainees

Abstract

<p>This study aimed to determine the effects of self-made pronunciation material based on phonetic symbols. The participants of the study were university students in teacher training programs. To develop the material, simplified phonetic symbols based on IPA were adopted for novice learners to more easily understand English pronunciation. Several problems arose during development, such as pronunciation differences between British and American English, that required changing the sample words. The results from the post-questionnaire show that learners of the material fostered awareness of English pronunciation and reported effects of such awareness, resulting in students' motivation not only for teaching intelligible English pronunciation to elementary school students but also for acquiring it for their future careers.</p>
