Creating site-specifically useful learning content for the Sanako Study 1200 vocabulary testing
- The usefulness of the Sanako Study 1200 new (from ver 6) vocabulary test activity hinges on the availability of site-specific vocabulary lists.
- Sanako UK
- seems aware of this and publishes vocabulary collections for textbooks and assessments commonly used in UK secondary education.
- Sanako favors using the built-in format and saving it on the network share that is required for the Sanako study 1200.
- Vocabulary tests are organized and can be discovered and browsed by file name only.
- TBA: How could something similar be done in a US HE context? One would need:
- establish which textbooks are (and will remain) in use?
- are they e-books or would the material need digitization?
- is the chapter vocabulary easily accessible as a list? Appendix glossaries encompass usually much more than the vocabulary required to study, so testing on these would quickly become frustrating
- how best to reformat the materials (from turning into a table to handling linguistic metadata) for easy use with the Sanako vocabulary test?
- how best to publish the material?
- to make it manageable for the updaters: crowdsourcing? copyright issuew?
- to make it easily selectable for the teacher: filter by integrated linguistic and course metadata?
- Last not least: How to do all this economically? Taking into consideration teacher preference, enrollment, preexisting materials…?
- cost lowered if tabular lists of vocabulary already exists
- benefit is lowered if online flash card applications already exist.
