12. Language Lab Activities: Independent During the independent self-paced practice phase of the lab session, students have several options depending on their needs and interests: 1. They can work on pattern drills to improve pronunciation, intonation, grammatical accuracy, and fluency. 2. They can listen again to that days or a previous days audio or video passage. 3. They can listen to supplementary materials previously obtained from the teacher. Outside of class hours, the lab is available for independent study as well. Students can come to the lab to (1) review previous lessons, (2) prepare make-up assignments for classes they have missed, or (3) practice with other materials for self-enrichment. 精品文档 13.
