Book Gendered Patterns in Teacher Student Interaction in EFL Classroom

Download or read book Gendered Patterns in Teacher Student Interaction in EFL Classroom written by Stella Minasyan and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present research endeavours to shed light on the role that gender plays in the language classroom in the Greek context. As no systematic investigation has considered special aspects of gender and interaction in primary school classrooms, this study seeks to investigate how teachers and students position themselves within different discourses in EFL classroom interaction. The issues discussed include turn-taking and interruptions, praise and reprimand, class dominance, teacher attention and class participation in classroom interaction. Drawing on language and gender research, it was hypothesized that gender of the learner affects the learner's language use and behaviour during EFL interaction. This study advances our understanding of gendered classroom interaction and highlights important ways in which students' gender influences teacher-student, as well as student-student interaction. Moreover, this study sheds light on gender bias which occurs in the classroom and thus impedes teachers' abilities to work successfully with all students. The Greek data revealed great similarity with findings of previous studies by supporting the assumption that: (a) teachers are biased in favour of boys, especially with respect to giving them more attention; (b) male students demand more teacher attention and more instructions from the teacher than their female peers; (c) female students are more likely to receive praise and positive comments, whereas male students are reprimanded by the teacher; (d) male students are more active in class participation, by taking more turns, volunteering and calling out.

Book Gender and Classroom Interaction

Download or read book Gender and Classroom Interaction written by Christine Howe and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book evolved from a report, commissioned by the Scottish Office Education and Industry Department, which examined gender differences in classroom interaction. The book examines existing research and makes proposals for further action on the topic of whether social interaction in schools perpetuates behavioral differences between males and females. Starting from how classroom interaction might, in theory, result in discrimination, the author provides a review of the evidence, organized around interactive settings which cut across subject areas and school sectors. Chapters on whole-class discussion, desk-based group work, group work around computers, and discussion for oral assessment are followed by a synthesis of findings and discussion of the implications for further research and educational intervention. There are six chapters in the book. Contains 93 references. (EH)

Book Asian Students  Classroom Communication Patterns in U S  Universities

Download or read book Asian Students Classroom Communication Patterns in U S Universities written by Jun Liu and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2001-10-30 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The past decade has witnessed a steady increase in the numbers of Asian students in North American institutions of higher learning. While their academic success has been widely recognized, concerns about their silence in classrooms have also been expressed by educators. Following an overview of Asian students in North American higher education, this book presents a focused ethnographic study of twenty Asian graduate students enrolled in a major US university, exploring and describing Asian student's oral classroom participation modes across multiple factors. Four major classroom communication patterns--total integration, conditional interaction, marginal participation, and silent observation--are identified among the participants and discussed across sociocultural, affective, cognitive, linguistic, and pedagogical/environmental factors. Also discussed are the Asian concepts of face saving, politeness, and social identity in multiple discourse communities in light of Asian students' perceptions of and modes in classroom participation. The book concludes with a call for the development of cultural transformation competence, which encompasses social identity negotiation skills, and culture-sensitivity knowledge and mindful reflexivity in addition to communicative competence.

Book Gender  Participation and Silence in the Language Classroom

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this first-hand study of the relationship of gender, ethnicity and the participation of children within an English-language teaching classroom, Julé re-assesses Lacan's approach to belonging with other theoretical approaches to gender and language, making use of case-study methods.

How might such tendencies be constructed or encouraged within an ESL classroom, where gender and ethnicity intersect in particular ways?

Download or read book Who is Listening written by Marilyn K. Fox and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study sought to shed light on two questions. Are males' verbal outbursts and their willingness to ignore established classroom rules, gaining teacher and peer attention, and if so, who pays the price? Secondly, do teachers impede equal opportunity for their students by demonstrating different beliefs and expectations about girls and boys? Existing research shows that males dominate classroom conversations, group projects and shared physical space. This study looks deeply into the minds and experiences of elementary age students to gain their perspective and authentic feelings about what goes on in the classroom. Analyzed data was collected through personal interviews, documentation of teacher-student interactions and several weeks of observations in a kindergarten and first grade classroom. Through the interviewing process, other components were brought to the surface that contribute to the issue of equity and influence the relationship between genders and peers. Further research is necessary to address the concepts of beauty and popularity and their effects in the learning environment.

Book Look at Me when I Talk to You

Download or read book Look at Me when I Talk to You written by Sylvia Helmer and published by Pippin Publishing Corporation. This book was released on 2003 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Communicating involves much more than memorizing vocabulary and learning grammar rules. As more and more students whose first language is not English are welcomed into our classrooms, teachers are finding that communicating effectively with this diverse population requires a sensitivity to cultural issues that affect the way people interact with one another. In this revised, expanded and updated edition of Look at Me When I Talk to You, Sylvia Helmer and Catherine Eddy explore the underlying fundamentals of communication to show how culture influences the messages sent - and received. Elements of both the theory and practice of communicating in a multicultural setting are discussed, and examples from real classrooms illustrate the issues that can, and do, arise. Practical suggestions for helping students learn to cope in their new culture make this book a must-read for all teachers working with students who are learning English as an additional language.
