Abstract

In this paper we describe the motivation, implementation, content, and assessment of a digital workbook used for the teaching of Portuguese phonetics and phonology, focusing on mid-vowel contrasts and their lexical and sociolinguistic impacts. The digital workbook incorporates multimedia into interactive lessons and exercises that accommodate students with diverse learning styles.
