Rationale
As learners,we make useof all our senses:sight, sound,touch,eventasteand smell.And we learnin
many differentways: by listeningto what peopletell us,by watchingwhat they do, by copyingthem,
by experimentingand finding things out for ourselves, and,aboveall, by practisingvariousskills.Our
learning canbe passive (listening, reading,obseruing,etc.), it can be active (copying, experimenting,
repeating, etc.),it can be individual (learning by oneselflor interactive (learning with and from others).
Often it is a combinationof these.
As learners,we find that we havestrengthsand weaknesses,
the bestor only ways lor all studentsto learn. Awarenessof the
value of othermodesof learning is leadingteachersto attempt to broadentheir approachso asto cater
for a wider rangeof learningneeds and preferences.0nly in this way,we arediscovering,can teaching
and learningbecomemore effective.
MiniJtashcardsarevisual and tactilematerialswhich help modernlanguageteachersto provide
opportunities for learning which aremore multisensory in their appealand which, hecauseof their
flixibility, canbe useclto meeta wiclerrangeof learning needsthan textbookson their own can provide.
The emphasison games-typeactivitiesis deliberate,since the acquisitionof foreign languageskillsis as
much practicalas it is academic, and it is only through frequent practicethat the learnercan become
sufficiently familiar with the languagepresented
to be confident enoughto useit for him/herself. Constant
repetition, however,canbe demotivating.By incorporating new vocabularyand grammatical structures
into game-likesituationsin which the elementsappearin randomisedand enjoyablecombinations,
learners' involvementin the learning processcan be engaged more effectivelyand sustained for longer
than is often the casewith textbookexercises. Gamesituations,if designed with learning goals clearly in
mind, can providestimulatingand challenging work which can supportthose with learningdifficulties
and promotethe learningof our most gifted students.
