MALLi: um modelo de auxílio ao aprendizado de inglês por meio da música

Abstract

More and more, nowadays, English becomes necessary as a second language. However, in the vast majority of times, learning a second language can be exhausting and it is possible to lose the motivation. Using something that is of the apprentice's taste is effective and music has been used to maintain that motivation. The growing use of mobile devices means that everything can be accessible from anywhere, making it possible to learn anytime, anywhere. The learning approach MALL (Mobile Assisted Language Learning) shows that it is possible to use the resources of mobile devices to help with language learning. In this context, this project aims to analyze how music can collaborate in learning English using MALL. For that, the research method DSR (Design Science Research) was used, which defines in stages how the research will be developed and evaluated. The MALLi model, a Mobile Assisted Language Learning for English, was developed by the present research. The model was evaluated and it was observed that it is possible to use a MALL with music to help in the challenges of learning English
