Trang 1PART A: INTRODUCTION
I REASONS FOR CHOOSING THE RESEACH
Textbooks developed under the new program have partly met theneed to use English in modern society But along with that, there is quite alarge amount of knowledge, so it has caused many difficulties withteaching and learning in all high schools all over the country in general andeven more difficult with a suburban school like Nguyen Mong Tuan HighSchool Thanh Hoa, where students' learning conditions are still difficultand unconscious In fact, only a few students who are quite active inreceiving lessons and giving opinions to build lessons, most of them justobediently listen and copy Sometimes, there are some students expressingboredom and tiredness while sitting in a foreign language, with a time ofonly 45 minutes for a lesson, the topic is very new and strange, makingstudents easily discouraged
II AIMS OF THE STUDY
We always concern with the question of how to get an effective andlively teaching time, which is interesting for students, making themdevelop their active and creative role in comprehending knowledge with adry vocabulary With the successful application of using pictures inteaching grade 10 English, educational innovation in the 2017-2018 schoolyear has inspired me to continue applying with grade 11 because of thereality in the program of the grade level This is similar to the Grade 10program For example, lesson 10, grade 11 program: "Nature in danger",using pictures of Cat Ba National Park will help students show theirwriting The description of Cat Ba is easier and more vivid Or it can besaid that the pictures that helped a boring lesson can become an interestingtrip Difficult reading, speaking and listening tasks can become fun andrewarding games Students find themselves more vivid about the worldthanks to the topics being learned in textbooks They will see that the book
is so precious, so rewarding, making them want to learn and find itnecessary to learn for themselves
III RESEARCH QUESTIONS
This study seeks to answer the following research questions:
How to get an effective and lively teaching time to guide students, can helpstudents at Nguyen Mong Tuan High School improve their teaching and learning?
How to include images and sounds in practical teaching and learning
activities that affect students' learning well?
Trang 2IV PARTICIPANTS
The subjects selected for the study included more than 80 non-English 11thgrade students in grade 11A2, 11A4,11A5 of Nguyen Mong tuan high school with survey questions and 7 teachers currently teaching English More specifically, teachers aged between 30 and 44 Their English teachingexperience varies from 8 years to 20 years The study was conducted in the academic year 2018 - 2019 at Nguyet Mong Tuan High School
V METHODS OF THE STUDY
When researching this topic, I need to do the following tasks:
-Looking at teaching and learning materials for English, photos and clips
- Observing colleagues' classes, exchanging and learning experiences
- Check and evaluate the capture results of all students, to have reasonable adjustment
-Other data sources come from the tasks in MOET textbook 11 The data analysis is expected to bring reliable results useful for teaching non – majorstudents at Nguyen Mong Tuan Thanh Hoa High School
Trang 3PART B: DEVELOPMENT
1 Theoretical basis
In teaching, the acquisition of information has three basic forms:listening, seeing and feeling The combination of these three forms plusinformation processing will generate three basic learning styles: theviewing space, the hearing and the sense of touch of the body The learner
of the style looks at the new information through visualizing the wholeconcept and in their imaginary thinking are spatial images
In learning and awareness of learners, sound has a very importantrole It helps learners acquire spoken language from teachers anddiscussion of other students Sound can create a "highlight" to help learnersrelax and absorb knowledge more effectively Music can enhance visualfunction, help stabilize heart rate, reduce stress and restore nerves, relieveexcitement
In the lesson, if the teacher uses a piece of music while the studentsare stressed, they can make them more excited and absorb the lesson better.Especially in video clips that can play the rhythm with the process, theprogress of the scenes will make viewers more interested In addition to thecages, you can put real sound like: the sound of animals, the engine'sexplosion, the murmur of flowing water These real sounds will make iteasier for learners to feel the reality, thereby making them remember longer
The world of information contains many images, charts and graphs.Vivid images, music symbols will affect people's psychology and emotionsand create a fundamental atmosphere for life
The system of spoken or written language symbols is beingintertwined, making the coding system more and more abundant Eachsymbol system serves as a vehicle for concepts, and is a means for us tocommunicate to learners When considering the image as part of theteaching process, consider the purpose of creating a useful image The fiveimage goals include: decorative images, symbolic images, images ofcomposition, images of explanations and images of transformation Imagesalong with all other systems have created a foundation for people tounderstand the content and structure of a theoretical system, helpinglearners learn and learn better
Video clips are often used to visualize physical phenomena Byproviding illustrations or visual images, events and concepts will appeal topeople's emotions in the learning process Using video clips in teachingwith teaching strategies and cognitive modeling features integrated in videocontent can be highly effective From the example of a detail to provide
Trang 4titles; from graphic images, to animations are good in acquiring the content
of the lesson
The use of video clips can develop understanding and enhance thedevelopment of knowledge in learning Well-designed multimedia lessons,using appropriate video clips, can enhance students' positive understandingprocess
The combination of sound or still images or animations helps toacquire human information in a better way The strength of the informationprovided by video clips (image, sound, sound) facilitates learners throughboth means: listening and viewing, considering real images or real objects,watching transitions Activate and watch difficult-to-view images in dailylife
Video clips not only create accessible learning contexts in somesituations but also video clips can be rewinded, reviewed often if needed.There are many advantages when using video clips in teaching First, thevideo clip provides a rich source of information with opportunities to payattention to images with their emotions, typical features, related issues andgenetic problems Second, It gives learners the ability to receive events.This advantage is especially important for students who are new to usingimages, and students who do not receive their interests Third, video clipshelp learners improve the skills of identifying audiovisual images instead
of the events that teachers offer The video clip images created create therelationship between teachers and learners, causing excitement for learners
The video clip provides a social context for learners, it can be usedwith sound so that learners can hear voices or change sounds, create a goodconversation The video clip will be less effective if we provide stately andnon-intuitive information; when surveying information or introducingknowledge logic not backed up with real evidence Video clips surveyinformation both listening and looking Therefore these two types mustwork in harmony to achieve the most effective Excessive loud sounds andnarration of dramatic images and excessive use of frames or slides canreduce educational announcements
Video clips can be considered as educational tools for all students,
it can bring positive effects for each individual student, attracting theirattention Visual learners will help to process information and receiveknowledge more effectively With the power of sound and words, videoclips are very beneficial for learners in the form of listening In addition,the description video clip illustrates the sequence of images and expressesreal actions in an emotional way, so it will bring good effect to the learners
Trang 5In addition, in the language lesson, video clips also play a role in projectingand reinforcing the language aspects for learners such as grammar,vocabulary or language functions.
The selection of effective video clips is an important part ofintegrating media into the practice and implementation of the role ofmultimedia in the classroom So when selecting a video clip we have tofollow some criterias:
- Attractive viewers: Is the video clip good enough to attract students?
- Perfection: Can video clips convey enough information or clarify thepurpose of selection?
- Length: from 30 seconds to 10 minutes depending on the purpose of thelesson
- suitable content: video clips must contain content suitable for pupil age,clear and easy to understand and rich in visuals
- Video clip genre: can be cartoon, science or natural educational program,
TV advertisement, music clip, drama, etc
With the content of the program is quite wide with the requirements ofinnovating teaching methods, the proficient use of support equipment andteaching aids is an indispensable requirement for teachers According to theold teaching method, teachers go to class almost completely guide theirsubjective lesson In that condition, the learners lose their initiative,gradually rely on the teacher, so it is difficult to remember the lesson, thelistening-speaking-reading-writing skills required by learning English aredifficult to be show.Most students have a lot of difficulties when the twoskills that are most clearly reflected in communication are mostly not welldeveloped, as students do not know how to apply sentence structures tospecific contexts The main reason is that students lack communicationopportunities so communication methods are the most preferred methodtoday With this method, in addition to teachers having to prepare lessonsvery carefully, it is very important to prepare a visual tool for teachingassistants with special attention to using video clips Learning throughvideo clips is much more effective for being exposed to real, real people.Byseeing the situations going on through the screen, students can speculate onsituations, understand the movements, clearly hear the sounds, not be
"halfway off the shoulder" very beneficial to the weak listener , slowreflexes This helps students understand the lesson right in the classroom,remember longer and apply it to the real situation
But the difficulty is that the source of video clips is not available,the teachers are forced to search through the tapes or download from the
Trang 6internet, the video clips are suitable for the lesson content and need to besuitable both in time time because each lesson cannot last more than 45minutes So it requires teachers to use flexible and clever handling so thatthe video clips bring information to the students just enough, not excess,right time but not rampant.
2.Real situations
For basic 11th grade English program at high school , we havetried to find video clips that are suitable to the topic of each unit, especiallythe difficult points because they are new to students Vietnam in generaland more and more new to students in the suburbs
The topics we selected in the video clips include:

in the clips or write additional words about the topic that are not in clip
3 Play the clip, introduce some pictures or lesson content to learn Inaddition, I can add extensive knowledge related to images in clips or postcontent
4 Turn on the video clip for the students to watch, then ask them to guessthe topic they will study today and lead the new lesson
Trang 75 Have the students use the clips, then design their own activities andcompetitions in the elective periods to increase creativity and ability towork in teams.
6 Call two or three representative students of the three groups on theboard They are not allowed to watch the video and must go back down forhelp and explanation from their team Teachers turn on video clips forstudents in the observation area, then ask the teams to explain to you abovethe word or topic to study
7 Use in extracurricular activities of professional groups, organizing gamessuch as the shape of word catches, crossword
