Abstract

LANGblog is an audioblog where online students can practise their oral skills by means of asynchronous posts of audio and video. At the conference we will briefly state the needs that originated the development of this new tool, we will show the tool, and how it is being used by around 6000 thousand online students in over 180 online classrooms at the Universitat Oberta de Catalunya, an online university. We will also explain attendants how they can try it out for themselves and install it in their institution servers, as LANGblog is open-source software.
