Title: Conference on Human and Material Resources in Foreign Language Learning
Body: From http://www.ucam.edu/unidcentral/idiomas/Events/004/index.htm II International Conference on Human and Material Resources in Foreign Language Learning Universidad Católica San Antonio, Murcia (Spain) 12-13 July 2007 With the language learner at the very centre, human and material resources are two key elements that make up the language learning process. Regarding material resources, nowadays new technologies can be said to play a leading role in most language learning environments. However, we cannot forget that these relatively new tools still coexist with more traditional ones which are still widely used in the foreign language classroom. On the other hand, the progressive emergence of new ‘human roles’ in language learning means that human resources have also become a key medium through which the learner accesses knowledge and practice towards language acquisition. Within this context, there is an obvious need to carry out research on these resources in order to assess their potential for an optimum learning experience.
