I Congresso Internacional de Humanidades UAb (Universidade Aberta, Portugal, 06-07/06/2023).http://hdl.handle.net/10400.2/15134Additional language learning and consequently also pronunciation development are important tools for a full integration into a new community, especially for those who must communicate orally on a daily basis and who wish to be integrated into the target-language speakers’ society, as in the case of most migrants in a host country. To achieve these goals, migrants can use free digital tools, whose design is based both on knowledge from the humanities’ field and technology. Actually, Technology-Enhanced Language Learning (TELL) is currently a very lively field and an extremely fruitful output from the cooperation between humanities and technology. This presentation aims precisely at illustrating how TELL can help migrants in Portugal to reach a good level of pronunciation (especially in terms of intelligibility and comprehensibility), considering that such an achievement might foster their integration in the country. It will include three parts: (1) reasons and strategies to improve pronunciation, according to the scientific literature in the arts and humanities’ field; (2) a sequence illustrating the use of free digital resources to practice a pronunciation property of European Portuguese; (3) concluding reflections on the role of humanities and technology in fostering migrants’ integration through language learning.porPortuguese as an additional languagePronunciation learningTELL (Technology-Enhanced Language Learning)Migrantsconference object
