| dc.description.abstract | Language teaching is an important field of pedagogy and practice. With the advancement of world, teaching methods have been greatly impacted by technology. Communicative language teaching and multimedia classrooms both have grown in popularity accordingly. As a developing nation Bangladesh also aspires to achieve its development goals. Learning English becomes a priority for the mission but such development also presents new challenges. To accept that challenge our teachers need to adapt teaching materials according to learners‟ needs as well as global demands. For that purpose use of technology and multimedia in English Language Teaching (ELT) must strike a balance between the demands of time and the reality of our students. Likewise understanding material designing and linguistic relativity also become essential for language teachers to prepare advanced multimedia materials. This research evaluates the impact of multimedia materials and linguistic relativity of EFL learners based relevant linguistic theories. | en_US |
