eGlobal Language

IOR uses a blended learning approach to achieve maximum success in language training. Blended learning allows a language trainer to combine in-person language instruction methodologies with self-study materials and online exercises designed to enhance the language learner’s progress.
 
What is eGlobal Language?

Face-To-Face eGlobal Language
Trainer-Learner
Interaction
Almost exclusively
face-to-face
and verbal.
A blend of face-to-face,
online, verbal and
written.
Flexibility
Dependent on
mutual availability
of trainer and
learner. Business travel
often prevents
professionals from scheduling training for 2 or more weeks at a time.
Even if face-to-face
training is suspended
for a period of time,
the traveler can remain engaged with the training
through assigned online
activities completed
conveniently whenever, wherever.
Practice Time
The learner's time to practice responding
to the activity
prompt is limited
to the length
of the lesson.
A learner can take as
much time as needed
to practice a response
before submitting it to
the trainer for feedback, reinforcing techniques learned during the
face-to-face session.
How does it work?
  • A language trainer assigns one to two performance activities per week to complement the face-to-face training.
  • A learner completes the activitity online on their own time and submits it to their trainer.
  • The trainer provides written and recorded verbal feedback to the learner who can repeat the activity implementing the trainer's feedback. The second repetition also receives a round of feedback.
  • Online assessments are conducted to track the learner's progress during the course of the training.
Who will benefit from it?
  • eGlobal Language is most appropriate for High-Intermediate to Low-Advanced English learners. eGlobal Language has the potential to be used for any language.
  • Busy professionals remain engaged with language training even when they are unavailable for face-to-face instruction.
  • All English language learners will benefit from the engaging eGlobal Language activities especially those professionals studying Business English or Business Presentations.
How does it compare to traditional face-to-face instruction?
  • eGlobal Language enriches face-to-face language training rather than replacing it completely.
  • The use of multiple learning modalities appeals to and enhances each student's unique learning style.
