單字+聽力大挑戰:來玩個Whispering Chain Dictation吧!
這一屆的學生,因為科技之便,還真的常常有機會可以練習聽力!因為只要生成式AI和TTS工具開下去,聽力練習真的小事啦!簡單好製作,效果也很好! 不過久了也是想換點花樣(不換花樣我會討厭我自己啊!XD),所以想說來玩點不一樣的聽力練習吧! 參考了一些dictation活動之後,覺得whispering chain dictation很不錯!如果再加上一點jigsaw listening的元素,應該會蠻有趣的! 所謂的whispering chain dictation,就是先讓一個學生看某個句子,學生想辦法記得並且要會唸,接著就要唸給同組的下一個同學聽,下一個同學聽好了再唸給下一個,依此類推,全程只能小聲唸英文,不能抄寫,不能錄音,拍照,錄影,就只能用whispering把那句英文傳下去! 那要如何生dictation用的句子/故事呢?當然又去找AI幫忙啦!我試了Gemini和Claude,兩邊都有用一點,而我提供的prompt是: Please make up a 5-sentence story using the words/phrases listed below. The difficulty level should be CEFR B1. Make sure each of the five sentences is between 10 to 12 words long. (單字一行一個列於此) AI產出的一個小例子供參: Sarah felt listless as she thought about her impending final exams. From her window, she could see a beautiful mountain vista stretching out . She began to be appreciative of the simple joys in her mortal life. With newfound vigor , Sarah decided not to regret wasted study time. She stretched out her arms and opened her textbook with determination. (畫底線為學生要學的單字片語)...
