Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2012 in the subject Didactics for the subject English - Pedagogy, Literature Studies, grade: 1,3, University of Trier, language: English, abstract: This paper deals primarily with the analysis and the evaluation of a listening exercise taken from a textbook series called Password Green. Password Green 3 is an English textbook for students in Germany who attend the seventh grade of a Gymnasium (i.e. secondary school). Further, the theory of listening (comprehension) (as provided by: Andreas Müller-Hartmann and Marita Schocker-v. Ditfurth (Introduction to English Language Teaching) and the educational magazine Der Fremdsprachliche Unterricht Englisch: Hörverstehen) as well as the Syllabus (Lehrplan English Sekundarstufe I / Gymnaisum) and the Educational Standards (Bildugnsstandards erste Fremdsprache Mittlerer Schulabschluss) will be taken into consideration. With the help of these stated sources the practical example will be analysed. Moreover, the term paper aims to illustrate to what extent the exercise applies to the theory and the requirements of Educational Standards and Curriculum. Additionally, the evaluation from a teacher ́s perspective will discuss under which conditions the exercise may be used or what risks and chances the analysed task can entail. It is important to mention that this term paper lays focus on my own opinion towards the analysed practical example and therefore does not reflect the opinion of any of the authors found in the list of secondary sources.

This book was released on 2024-06-04 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the multifaceted challenges and effective strategies associated with mastering listening comprehension, particularly in an English as a Foreign Language (EFL) context. The book is structured into seven comprehensive chapters, each delving into a specific aspect of listening comprehension. The introductory chapter sets the stage by highlighting the importance of listening skills in language acquisition and the growing need for effective comprehension strategies in a globalized world. In the second chapter, "Listening Comprehension," the book delves into the nature of listening, differentiating between various types of listening and discussing why listening is often considered a neglected skill. This chapter provides a foundational understanding of listening as an active process that involves receiving, interpreting, and responding to spoken messages. It underscores the complexity of listening comprehension and the cognitive load it places on learners. Chapter three, "Factors Affecting Listening Comprehension," explores the myriad factors influencing a student's comprehension of spoken language. These factors include physical elements like hearing ability, psychological aspects such as anxiety and motivation, experiential factors, attitudes toward listening, gender differences, environmental conditions, and societal roles. By identifying these factors, the book provides a comprehensive view of the external and internal influences on listening comprehension. The fourth chapter, "Potential Problems in Learning Listening Comprehension," identifies specific challenges learners face, such as the inability to control the speed of speech, limited vocabulary, difficulty recognizing contextual signals, problems with interpretation, and the inability to concentrate. It also addresses how established learning habits can hinder listening development. The fifth chapter, "Possible Strategies in Learning Listening Comprehension," offers solutions by introducing metacognitive, cognitive, and social-affective strategies. These strategies aim to help learners plan, monitor, and evaluate their listening processes, utilize mental techniques to enhance comprehension and leverage social interactions to improve listening skills. The sixth chapter, "Students' Problems and Strategies in Learning Listening Comprehension in EFL Context," applies the previous discussions specifically to English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners. It examines how the general problems and strategies manifest in EFL contexts and provides tailored advice for learners and educators in these settings. Finally, the seventh chapter, "Model of Assessing Students' Problems and Strategies in Learning Listening Comprehension," presents a framework for evaluating the strategies' effectiveness. This model helps educators assess students' listening skills and identify the most effective interventions. Overall, the book offers a detailed analysis of the challenges and solutions in learning listening comprehension, providing valuable insights and practical strategies for both students and educators.

Download or read book English as a Foreign Language in a New Found Post Pandemic World written by El-Henawy, Walaa M. and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2022-06-24 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The COVID-19 pandemic has catalyzed a new era in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learning and teaching by shifting EFL education from the face-to-face learning paradigm to the online and distance learning paradigm. Teachers and students have faced several challenges such as choosing appropriate web tools for presenting content either synchronously or asynchronously, motivating students to participate, and assessing students’ learning. Additionally, this shift to emergency remote online learning represents a challenge for students, particularly with managing their own learning. Taking into account that many students attend low-income schools with limited resources that lack reliable access to the internet and computers, this shift has resulted in growing equity gaps. Likewise, transitioning to emergency remote teaching has revealed a lack of digital competency and readiness amongst teachers. English as a Foreign Language in a New-Found Post-Pandemic World presents an overview of various tools, designs, and strategies utilized to provide digital teaching and assessment of the English language, shares research on using digital technologies for supporting English language learning, and identifies promising areas and directions for future innovations, applications, and research in digital English language learning and teaching. Covering critical topics such as digital teacher education, language learning environments, and online instructional tools, this reference work is crucial for administrators, policymakers, teacher educators, special educators, educational technologists, researchers, scholars, academicians, practitioners, instructors, and students.

This book was released on 2015-12-02 with total page 598 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The theme of the conference this year was Critical CALL, drawing inspiration from the work carried out in the broader field of Critical Applied Linguistics. The term ‘critical’ has many possible interpretations, and as Pennycook (2001) outlines, has many concerns. It was from these that we decided on the conference theme, in particular the notion that we should question the assumptions that lie at the basis of our praxis, ideas that have become ‘naturalized’ and are not called into question. Over 200 presentations were delivered in 68 different sessions, both in English and Italian, on topics related specifically to the theme and also more general CALL topics. 94 of these were submitted as extended papers and appear in this volume of proceedings.
