This website explores the use of javaScript to add interactivity to language learning materials. The main advantage of javascript is that it can be used to add a lot of interactivity yet web pages are still relatively small and fast to load. In addition no plug-ins need to be downloaded and installed.

Dialog Builder

February 14, 2007 on 7:02 pm | In JavaScript Activity | No Comments

I have finally got round to finishing the Dialog Builder. I wanted a tool that would allow students to do some work on situational dialogues before attending a class, to act as a sort of warmer. The student hears one part of a dialogue and then chooses from a list of possible responses. If they choose correctly they will hear the next part of the dialogue, until they complete the task.

The activity makes use of JavaScript to control audio being streamed with Real Player.
