Abstract
The aim of this work in progress project is to provide a language learning design principle using the Learning Activity Management System (LAMS) as a platform in authentic classroom situations. The research project will use a LessonLAMS sequence and is designed using a ‘Dynamic Scaffolding Technique’ within the learner’s zone of proximal development (ZPD) (Vygotsky & Cole, 1978). The learning design of the LessonLAMS sequence will be incorporated in classroom instruction. The research focus is on technology-enhanced learning tasks, which can be designed and implemented in a foreign language classroom. Participants are South East Queensland secondary students who are learning Korean as a foreign language as an elective subject. Data will be collected from each lesson using qualitative research techniques. Students will complete focus group interviews and questionnaires to highlight their learning experiences as part of the study.
