Download or read book Teaching English to Second Language Learners in Academic Contexts written by Jonathan M. Newton and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-02-07 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teaching English to Second Language Learners in Academic Contexts: Reading, Writing, Listening, and Speaking provides the fundamental knowledge that ESL and EFL teachers need to teach the four language skills. This foundational text, written by internationally renowned experts in the field, explains why skills-based teaching is at the heart of effective instruction in English for academic purposes (EAP) contexts. Each of the four main sections of the book helps readers understand how each skill—reading, writing, listening, and speaking—works and explains what research has to say about successful skill performance. Pedagogically focused chapters apply this information to principles for EAP curriculum design and to instructional activities and tasks adaptable in a wide range of language-learning contexts. Options for assessment and the role of digital technologies are considered for each skill, and essential information on integrated-skill instruction is provided. Moving from theory to practice, this teacher-friendly text is an essential resource for courses in TESOL programs, for in-service teacher-training seminars, and for practicing EAP teachers who want to upgrade their teaching abilities and knowledge bases.

Download or read book Teaching the Content Areas to English Language Learners in Secondary Schools written by Luciana C. de Oliveira and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-01-17 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This practitioner-based book provides different approaches for reaching an increasing population in today’s schools - English language learners (ELLs). The recent development and adoption of the Common Core State Standards for English Language Arts and Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects (CCSS-ELA/Literacy), the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics, the C3 Framework, and the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) highlight the role that teachers have in developing discipline-specific competencies. This requires new and innovative approaches for teaching the content areas to all students. The book begins with an introduction that contextualizes the chapters in which the editors highlight transdisciplinary theories and approaches that cut across content areas. In addition, the editors include a table that provides a matrix of how strategies and theories map across the chapters. The four sections of the book represent the following content areas: English language arts, mathematics, science, and social studies. This book offers practical guidance that is grounded in relevant theory and research and offers teachers suggestions on how to use the approaches described.

This book was released on 2021-03-28 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the eighth volume in the Global Research on Teaching and Learning English series, co-published with The International Research Foundation for English Language Education (TIRF). It brings together the latest developments in research on teaching English in under-resourced contexts across the world, offering a window into the complex challenges that these communities face. Recommendations from research and experience in well-resourced contexts are frequently not relevant or feasible in different circumstances. Contributors explore local and regional assets and challenges to provide a deeper understanding of the difficult issues that language learners and teachers must confront, and they provide insights to meet those challenges. With chapters written by TIRF Doctoral Dissertation Grant awardees, the volume addresses the crucial and growing need for research-based conversations on the contexts, environments, and challenges of teaching English in areas of the world with limited resources, literacy levels, or other constraints. The volume includes sections on policy connections, teacher preparation, and practice insights. It is a useful resource for graduate students and teacher educators in language education, ESL/EFL education, and international education, and an enlightening reference for all readers with an interest in language education around the world.

Download or read book Bridging Teaching Learning and Assessment in the English Language Classroom written by Tijen Akşit and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2018-11-12 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learning English as a foreign language in any formal education context requires opportunities for learners and teachers to give and receive feedback on the teaching learning process as it is happening. These opportunities could be created via various in-class activities specifically designed for this purpose. Teachers who create and use these diagnostic opportunities effectively detect what learners need in a timely fashion, and provide remedial teaching in the right time and mode, so that chances can be created for learners to improve their learning. There is no one universally accepted way of how to do this, however, with various approaches for collecting, analyzing and reviewing data for this purpose. This book encapsulates the unbreakable relationship between teaching, learning and assessment through a range of articles which scrutinize assessment from a wide spectrum, ranging from the role of assessment in language learning to ELT teacher assessment literacy, from the use of technology in classroom-based assessment to practicing teachers’ reflections on their teacher classroom action research, and from the role of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) to empirical data analysis.

Download or read book Teaching English by Design written by Peter Smagorinsky and published by Heinemann Educational Books. This book was released on 2018-10-30 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teaching English by Design has become a classic resource for preservice teachers as well as in-service teachers who consider it their go-to guide to creating lessons and units organized around key concepts. In the Second Edition, Peter Smagorinsky updates the content for today's teachers with discussions of New Literacies, using technology in the classroom, LGBTQ issues, and an expansive new chapter on preparing for Beginning Teacher Performance Assessments. He also brings in a fresh new voice and outlook from Darren Rhym, a high school teacher in rural Georgia. Following a new chapter on "Teaching Stressed Students Under Stressful Circumstances," Peter and Darren collaborated to create a unit on Power and Race. Designed to help students develop agency in improving their lives and those of the people in their communities, this sample unit provides a practical framework for addressing the needs of low-SES students who rely on limited resources. Together with Peter's unique insight about students, how they learn, and the kinds of classrooms that support their achievement, Teaching English by Design, 2/e is more valuable and relevant than ever.

Download or read book Teaching English written by Astrida Skrinda and published by Nova Science Publishers. This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Original peer-reviewed contributions from recognized and established scholars and practitioners offer a variety of perspectives on teaching English as a second or foreign language and an expanded focus on teaching in international contexts. The authors challenge several current practices from multiple viewpoints and offer innovations that are thoughtful and engaging. Definitely, we must build on our past and present knowledge of what works to refine and improve existing language teaching practices and, it is hoped, develop other practices that will be even better and more encompassing. Thus, Chapter 1 reports the launch of a newly designed problem-based learning program in which metacognitive strategy instruction is integrated into an English listening curriculum. It combines the Problem-Based Learning approach from education and the Metacognitive approach from second-language listening research. The author does a good job at the end to try to disentangle the effects of the two treatments. This is an exciting time to be teaching English as a second or foreign language. In many countries, children are starting to learn English at an ever-younger age. Chapter 2 provides a meta-analysis of the situation currently observed in many English as a foreign language classes given to Polish and Slovak preschool learners, among others. It covers not only an analysis of a number of currently observed approaches, but also presents research-based propositions. Also, it suggests a handful of problem-grounded outcomes. We cannot be satisfied with the in-progress state of affairs but must seek out new ways to provide learners with the most effective and efficient language learning experiences possible, taking into account the learners' goals, interests, and learning contexts. Chapter 3 concerns the attitudes of Polish English-language majors to their target language cultural learning. Though Chapter 3 leaves us with many questions unanswered, it sheds the light on the teaching of cultural elements, particularly in a European context. Finally, Chapter 4 offers a unique perspective on language instruction, particularly for audiences unfamiliar with Buddhist philosophy. Basically, it describes a teaching approach based on Buddhist philosophy, which would probably be very effective for someone familiar and/or interested in that particular school of thought. Alternatively, it would open readers' mind to a completely different approach to language instruction, which may or may not work outside of its current context, but at least it has a very clear philosophical foundation and very clear set of procedures that are worth examining further. The intended audience are all those who are interested in teaching English as second or foreign language, including researchers, methodologists, curriculum and materials designers, teachers, and undergraduate and graduate students"--
