What is the alternative that presents the correct text about technologies for English language teaching?
( ) Benefiting thousands of students in classrooms around the world. For many students and teachers, this solution is not new, but its use has become increasingly creative and relevant in the school context. It allows us to explore additional resources within the courseware, as well as being another tool in the teacher's service to capture attention and promote student engagement. ( ) While teachers have to battle for the attention of students in the classroom, it is also well known that the long, expository lecture model is dated. The way we consume content has undergone a major transformation over the last few decades. For new generations, bombarded by different content and information all the time - and in different media - it has become challenging to focus on one task for long periods of time. The social networks themselves offer evidence of this change: Twitter, with its posts up to 280 characters; or Snapchat, with its short images and videos that expire in 24 hours. In this context came the expression microlearning. This technology is the fragmentation of educational content so that it is more easily assimilated by the student. It’s is ideal for digital format, whether it is for content exposure or for reviewing concepts explored during class, through videos, games, animations, etc. ( ) It is already possible to glimpse this technology, especially among children and adolescents. Whenever they are connected, young people are receiving or streaming this technology: Evidence of this reality is the phenomenon of YouTubers. In the educational context, it is possible to follow this trend seeking to offer hangouts (debates and live broadcasts), video lessons, animations and video calls that enable contact with people from different places, realities, etc. Also, encouraging students to produce content in this technological tool format can be a way to generate greater engagement. ( ) Many schools and many teachers find it difficult to handle with this technology in the classroom. When rules of use are not established early in the year, or when they are not clear to students, it is very easy for it to become a discipline issue. There are many applications for educational purposes, many offered by schools themselves and education systems. Digital books, augmented reality, educational games, animations, video lessons and problem solving are just some of the features that can be accessed through that. Generation Z students are immersed in technology 24 hours a day. Going forward, the trend is to find more teachers and students using this technology in the classroom, with educational goals.
