Description

The OTIL Model is a systematic, web-based instructional design model for English listening instruction that combines a task-based approach with interactive online learning. It comprises 6 phases and 17 steps: identify setting, set instructional goals, design lessons, produce the online instructional package, conduct developed lessons, and evaluate. The article states it is "an online interactive listening instruction design with task-based approach" and "a learner-centered instruction design, emphasizing interaction."

Design Implications

Context

Requirements

• Web-based activities such as Forum, Glossary, Chat, Wiki, and Quiz are required so that learner-instructor, learner-learner and learner-content interaction and immediate feedback are supported

Constraints

• The model was developed and evaluated for college English listening teaching in China; the experts noted weaknesses in phase names, step explanations and the flow of the model, which were revised

Target Learners

• second-year non-English major undergraduate EFL learners

Learning Goals

• English listening comprehension

Claims

• Experts rated the OTIL Model as appropriate and satisfactory (overall mean 4.92) [+W]
• The experimental class taught with OTIL lessons in Moodle scored significantly higher on the listening post-test than the control class [+W]
