Hello everyone, my name is Mohammed, I'm from spanish department.
- 00:06 - 00:08
Um today I would like to talk about my own
- 00:09 - 00:12
experience in my elective course and how can we use
- 00:12 - 00:17
music as a magical tune tool in a spanish foreign
- 00:17 - 00:17
language classroom.
- 00:18 - 00:23
So like years ago when my coordinator asked me to
- 00:23 - 00:28
prepare an elective course to take attention of our spanish
- 00:28 - 00:33
students, language students and I decided to combine my, my
- 00:33 - 00:36
two loves my two passions, which one which are like
- 00:37 - 00:38
one of them is music and the other one spanish
- 00:38 - 00:39
language and the culture of course.
- 00:40 - 00:45
So I decided to combine those two subjects and I
- 00:45 - 00:48
want my students uh to get more closer to the
- 00:48 - 00:49
culture and to the language.
- 00:49 - 00:53
So um today I would like to talk about my
- 00:53 - 00:57
two best friends okay, uh which are as you can
- 00:57 - 01:00
see on my PowerPoint music and spanish my best friends.
- 01:00 - 01:04
Okay, music is the common language to reach people since
- 01:04 - 01:09
the early beginning of humanity, healing souls, giving messages to
- 01:09 - 01:13
the next generations, inspiring people having a nice time and
- 01:13 - 01:15
more innumerable reasons.
- 01:15 - 01:18
So during these hard times, I mean the covid time
- 01:19 - 01:23
and online classes, students need to make a sensible reach
- 01:23 - 01:25
between language and learning.
- 01:26 - 01:28
Um, and music of course.
- 01:28 - 01:31
So I would like to share my personal experience which
- 01:31 - 01:33
you about my elective course called spanish and let's not
- 01:33 - 01:35
make the music, culture and carnival.
- 01:37 - 01:43
Um so down to ages art has been a means
- 01:43 - 01:48
of expression for conveying various ideas, especially intangible ones among
- 01:49 - 01:52
the numerous types of art like music has been an
- 01:52 - 01:57
important aspect of agriculture with which we used to express
- 01:57 - 01:59
our toes and feelings.
- 01:59 - 02:03
However it's wrong uh, in learning a language and especially
- 02:04 - 02:07
learning a foreign language has not received great attention educational
- 02:08 - 02:16
resource. Um, so time to time mm pop music due
- 02:16 - 02:19
to its due to its effective power in reducing pressure
- 02:19 - 02:23
and stress well and engage the language learning environments.
- 02:24 - 02:28
So in this regard, the present study was conducted to
- 02:28 - 02:31
examine the relative effectiveness of the use of songs, lyrics
- 02:32 - 02:33
and music on Machiavelli accusation.
- 02:34 - 02:38
So using an experimental approach, results of some studies show
- 02:38 - 02:40
that where I'm degrees of the use of songs, uh,
- 02:41 - 02:46
would yield different different language achievements and in spanish and
- 02:46 - 02:50
those who were exposed who were exposed to the most
- 02:50 - 02:51
music obtained a higher achievement.
- 02:53 - 02:55
Uh, almost continual.
- 02:56 - 02:56
Let's continue.
- 02:58 - 03:01
So we can hardly imagine a culture without music.
- 03:02 - 03:04
Thus music is an essential part of any culture which
- 03:05 - 03:09
is highly recognized as an indispensable component of components of
- 03:10 - 03:10
human existence.
- 03:11 - 03:13
A special short musical composition.
- 03:13 - 03:15
Songs are also rooted in the culture.
- 03:16 - 03:20
They are regarded as rich sources of information about human
- 03:20 - 03:25
values, beliefs, customs relations, ethics, um, and cultural differences.
- 03:25 - 03:29
No, and I'm sure you, you know no different animals
- 03:30 - 03:33
have various kinds of christ and songs to communicate with
- 03:33 - 03:35
each other, not like dolphins and other animals.
- 03:36 - 03:40
So similarly human being used their language or music to
- 03:40 - 03:43
express their thoughts and feelings to their fellow men.
- 03:43 - 03:44
For example, in flamenco music.
- 03:45 - 03:49
Nowadays the well known kahan and afro Peruvian instrument was
- 03:50 - 03:53
forbidden to play by the catholic church as it was
- 03:53 - 03:55
considered pagan and means of communications.
- 03:56 - 03:59
As a result, the slaves searched for means to express
- 04:00 - 04:05
their artistic manifestations and secretary sacred rights by using wooden
- 04:05 - 04:08
drawers, the instrument kahan and spoons.
- 04:09 - 04:12
So I also wanted my students to practice in my
- 04:12 - 04:16
classrooms and to touch some exotic instruments and I want
- 04:16 - 04:21
them to express their self they yourself by using those
- 04:21 - 04:21
kinds of instruments.
- 04:22 - 04:27
No. Um and during the long journey of the gypsy
- 04:28 - 04:32
nation, not which started from India and ended in Andaluz
- 04:32 - 04:35
in the south of spain in this elective course the
- 04:35 - 04:39
students can make a specific relation between the language, ethics
- 04:40 - 04:43
and culture thanks to their habits and styles of dance.
- 04:44 - 04:46
Of course the carnival culture is the other powerful, powerful
- 04:47 - 04:48
part of the culture.
- 04:48 - 04:51
And thanks to that we have the chance to have
- 04:51 - 04:53
more information about their life.
- 04:56 - 05:02
And cognitive scientists, therapist musicians, singers and teachers can easily
- 05:03 - 05:05
support the relationship between music and language.
- 05:06 - 05:09
No, the main refer to these aspects of human life
- 05:09 - 05:14
as two separate separate separate toll, complementary systems of structured
- 05:15 - 05:19
communication language primarily responsible for content and music evoking emotions
- 05:19 - 05:21
said Jordan in 1997.
- 05:23 - 05:27
So regarding the significance of music on learning plateau believed
- 05:27 - 05:32
that musical training is a more potent instrument than any
- 05:32 - 05:36
other because written and our money find their way into
- 05:36 - 05:41
the involved places of the soul on which they, they
- 05:41 - 05:45
might be fashion making the soul of him who is
- 05:45 - 05:47
rightly educated, wasteful set joe.
- 05:47 - 05:52
It's also in 1994 and also I would like to
- 05:54 - 05:58
talk about the songs contain okay, the spanish don't contain
- 05:58 - 05:58
no instances.
- 05:59 - 06:02
So music is considered as a strong candidate for for
- 06:03 - 06:07
making the language learning classroom and optimum learning environment in
- 06:07 - 06:11
which learners can increase their vocabulary and hence there listening,
- 06:12 - 06:15
speaking, reading and writing skills and develop cultural knowledge.
- 06:16 - 06:20
So numerous teachers confirmed the excessive power of music is
- 06:20 - 06:24
an election tool in classroom environment not and as a
- 06:24 - 06:28
warm up or background for other tasks being carried out
- 06:28 - 06:32
to facilitate learning process said can for example in 1996.
- 06:33 - 06:37
So education educators now have found several features and songs
- 06:38 - 06:40
which allows second language learners to manage their learning effective
- 06:41 - 06:47
effectively for instance and songs contain converse conversational language, short
- 06:47 - 06:51
words and many personal pronouns which are spoken at a
- 06:51 - 06:59
slower rate with variety uh with various reputations allowing them
- 06:59 - 07:02
to be processed easily efficiently and amusingly.
- 07:03 - 07:06
So the factors make songs as a magnificent tools, uh
- 07:07 - 07:11
magnificent tools for learning vocabulary or for fortifying words already
- 07:12 - 07:17
learned. So I find really useful and those kind of
- 07:17 - 07:21
activities. But of course technology has some disadvantages.
- 07:22 - 07:26
So I would like to talk about and using those
- 07:26 - 07:28
kinds of tools in the classroom because they really help
- 07:28 - 07:31
us to uh facilitate the process.
- 07:31 - 07:35
Uh like you know, we have lots of applications, but
- 07:36 - 07:39
the most common ones, especially I use often Youtube or
- 07:39 - 07:44
Spotify or the other applications in the classroom because choosing
- 07:44 - 07:46
a synchronized team is vital for students.
- 07:47 - 07:50
So it should be neither too short or nor too
- 07:50 - 07:53
long, topics must be appropriate for levels the quality of
- 07:53 - 07:55
the video or the song has to be.
- 07:56 - 07:59
Well, it's also if not uh imagine a video without
- 08:00 - 08:03
with a really low pixel or with a really low
- 08:04 - 08:07
resolution. So it's not going to motivate them or if
- 08:07 - 08:09
you are going to choose a really perfect video quality
- 08:10 - 08:11
video so it can stop.
- 08:12 - 08:15
So it can be interrupted by technology iconic your Internet
- 08:15 - 08:19
connections. There are lots of issues during those.
- 08:19 - 08:22
So I advise you to find out before your classroom
- 08:23 - 08:27
and check double check your videos or your contains Okay.
- 08:28 - 08:34
And so we can provide students of spanish as a
- 08:34 - 08:34
foreign languages.
- 08:35 - 08:38
So however, research on the role of music and songs
- 08:39 - 08:41
in second foreign languages learning has not received great attention.
- 08:42 - 08:45
Educational research, even though the impact of music on society
- 08:46 - 08:48
and culture is highly recognized heartburn sets.
- 08:49 - 08:53
So states of the manufacturers that includes learning if you
- 08:53 - 08:58
are as far reaching, far reaching or little understood a
- 08:58 - 08:59
sound and music.
- 09:00 - 09:03
So this paper or this project looks briefly at research
- 09:04 - 09:07
and examines examine eyes the importance of music and songs
- 09:08 - 09:10
in the second foreign language learning especially in the realm
- 09:11 - 09:14
of words, study and offer strategies for music song in
- 09:15 - 09:18
enhancing vocabulary learning and retention.
- 09:20 - 09:24
Um, so the main research question of the presentation is,
- 09:24 - 09:29
does the use of songs or instruments in classroom in
- 09:29 - 09:35
trillions afl learners vocabulary accusation I guess.
- 09:35 - 09:36
Absolutely yes.
- 09:37 - 09:43
So I'm really, um, I'm really, I really support this
- 09:43 - 09:47
idea. Um, in addition, if you, if I would like
- 09:47 - 09:50
to talk especially for my electric course with the participation
- 09:50 - 09:54
of some celebrities who speak spanish like dancers, singers, uh
- 09:54 - 09:58
national or international musicians like victoria's okay, this doesn't have
- 09:59 - 10:03
the chance to prepare and make direct questions about flamenco
- 10:03 - 10:05
music concerts and organizations in Turkey.
- 10:06 - 10:08
Um, so as a result, the main objective is to
- 10:08 - 10:12
motivate the students and increase their aware awareness about the
- 10:13 - 10:16
feeling and energy which they have inside and to combine
- 10:16 - 10:19
music with spanish and encourage them of course to be
- 10:19 - 10:21
more involved in the language.
- 10:22 - 10:27
And by the time sometimes for example my students after
- 10:27 - 10:31
they graduate or after they finished the class uh they
- 10:32 - 10:35
sent me some messages for john uh we were in
- 10:35 - 10:40
Istanbul in a latin american dance show competition and uh
- 10:41 - 10:44
we remember our players and if they are, when they
- 10:44 - 10:47
start to travel, for example when they went to spain
- 10:47 - 10:51
or to a latin american country when they sent me
- 10:51 - 10:54
who we are in peru so I'm going to try
- 10:54 - 10:58
to catch this festival or I'm in spain, I mean
- 10:58 - 11:00
Malaysia, I would like to participate to last five years
- 11:01 - 11:03
uh and we are going to catch the date as
- 11:04 - 11:07
we have done in our classroom, so we know what
- 11:07 - 11:09
to eat, we know what to do, so we know
- 11:09 - 11:12
the conditions or we are going to participate to tom
- 11:12 - 11:15
Martino, we are going to participate to sometime in those
- 11:15 - 11:18
are international, big festivals in Spain.
- 11:18 - 11:21
So they manage their business travels according to those days.
- 11:21 - 11:24
It really makes me happy when I hear those kind
- 11:24 - 11:25
of feedback.
- 11:25 - 11:29
