DIVERSE LEARNERS

According to several experts in the industry, most notably,Joyce Pittman, Ph.D.
Students of diversity will need access to new learning and technology tools and methods to improve literacy levels required for success in higher education. Building knowledge and skills through human-to-human communication provides diverse learners to have access to authentic materials in problem-based environments to help draw connections to new language context and content usage. In the past, computer-assisted language learning (CALL) was used to support language learners in education. Now, especially in higher education learners’ access to Net-worked based resources have moved beyond CALL to placing more emphasis on the need for more caring, competent, highly qualified teachers who understand the importance of Active learning and teaching, home and community involvement in meeting the needs of learners with new technologies to improve global competitive positioning in education and in the world of work.
