Abstract | ||||
This research explores the influence of technology on perceptual teaching/training of Greek pronunciation, specifically focusing on Computer-Assisted Pronunciation Teaching/Training (CAPT) methods. The study reviews three prominent techniques: High Variability Phonetic Training (HVPT), audiovisual perceptual training using the SpeakGreek software, and Cued Pronunciation Reading (CPR). In the context of language learning, these methods can be implemented in various settings, including classrooms or laboratories. The central theme of each method revolves around enhancing learners' perceptual skills, thereby facilitating the production of both segmental elements and suprasegmental elements. | ||||
