Overcoming Barriers to Sustainable Dissemination of L2 Learning Resources: An Integrated Framework for Creating and Distributing Dialogue Scenarios

Abstract

Language learning resources, such as dialogue scenarios, are important for supporting second language (L2) learning by engaging learners in simulated conversations or role-plays. However, there are often barriers to the wider dissemination of these resources, including the lack of a standard format for distributing them, the difficulties of maintaining and updating them over time, and the need for effective means of tracking their use and impact. This paper presents an integrated framework for fostering the wider dissemination of L2 learning resources, with a focus on dialogue scenarios. The framework is designed to address the above challenges by providing a novel approach for creating and distributing dialogue scenarios, as well as a set of guidelines to ensure that they are pedagogically sound and compatible with learning management systems (LMS). The paper also discusses the potential benefits of the framework for L2 learners and educators and outlines future directions for the project.
