STATEMENT OF PERSONAL LEARNING GOALS.
Since a student is part of the English Language Teaching Training Program from
Universidad Técnica de Ambato the main purpose is being competent professionals but
also form good human beings. English students during the first four semesters acquire
the correct bases and strategies to understand the language since its grammatical context
and composition.
Studied a language since their grammatical composition is what Phonology II module
develops. On my view, the most important knowledge I have acquired is how
morphology contributes to the learning process of a language. Identify word formation
and classification which facilitates to understand the relations between words.
As future English teacher it is important to know that learn language is not only to
develop the four principal skills: reading, speaking, writing, and listening. Contrary to
these aspects, it is to understand the language since its formation and also by the
context. During this semester we are going to learn different concepts, do activities and
develop different elements about morphology.
Finally, I must contribute with the main purpose of this module achieving all my goals
for this semester. I consider the main characteristic that I should have to become
successful English teacher are perseverance, attitude and aptitude to be able to acquire
the correct bases in order to apply this concepts and strategies in classes.

III. COURSE DESCRIPTION AND OBJECTIVES
Purpose
The aim of the course is to introduce students to the word formation of English.
That knowledge will let them make teaching desicions when planning,
organizing and evalauating the English Teaching and Learning process.
Course Description: (Abstract)
The course will aim to develop phonological knowledge and strategies in order to
use them when learning and teaching English.
This course will develop 5 main elements during the semester. First, students will
identify basic concepts of L2 related to morphology subject. Then, they will
understand different patterns of word formation. After that, students will be
aware of the lexical derivation, mainly the origin of words. They will also
analyze the language by applying morphological structures. Finally, students will
predict examples about possible morphological problems presented in L2.
The methodology that will be applied in the development of the module is Kolb´s
strategies and basically ABP, and English methodology as cognitive and meta-
cognitive strategies which may help students develop an independent learning.
Some of the evaluation instruments such a mind maps, charts, oral presentations
will be applied in order to get critical thinking and students´ own conclusion
according to each topic.
This course will contribute with the development of accuracy of language, in
other words, the correct use of words in context depending on the origin of word
and the different uses of the lexis.
Course General Objective:
Make use of linguistic elements, psychological processes, and the sociocultural
aspects in order to apply them in the teaching-learning process in an effective
way
Course Specific Objectives :
1. Identify basic concepts of L2 related to morphophonemic subject.
2. Compare different patterns of word formation and their pronunciation.
3. Analyze the lexical derivation, mainly the origin of words.
4. Investigate the language by applying morphological structures.
5. Provide their own examples about possible morphological problems presented
in L2

SUMMARY
INFLECTIONS AND WORD- FORMATION
According to Mathews this chapter makes reference to the difference
between word-formation and inflection. While the first makes the change in the
part of the speech. The second is syntactically determined.
On the other hand, this chapter makes reference to formatives " relating
to any of the smallest meaningful units that are used to form words in a
language, typically combining forms and inflections" ( Oxford dictionary). For
example, in the ending of –ion→ demonstration and – s –demonstrations. In
addition, the ending “ing” as inflectional and lexica like in the next example, the
suffix -ing→ making
In addition, the author makes the distinction in word formation because
words have different entries in a dictionary. Moreover, a difficulty in dictionaries
is presented when words are given separately but are syntactically similar. For
example, In an Italian dictionary-ZIO “uncle” and ZIA “aunt” Cugino→ “male
cousin” and Cugina→ “female cousin”.
Finally, the author mentions about participial adjectives that can modify
nouns and function as descriptive adjectives and can be identify by their
endings –er, -ing, and –ed; for example, a worried girl→ participial adj. It is
modified by very→ a very worried girl. In addition, in other languages such as
Latin or French formed with the suffix –al; Latin→ origine , French→original,
and English→original

INTRODUCTION
The principal aim of an English teacher is to encourage students to learn the
language easily. An important part of language is Vocabulary. The main reason to
develop these activities based on vocabulary is because it deals with words that are the
entire vocabulary of a language. The next activities are based on Chapter 6 from
Matthews’s book about Compound words, Blends and Phrasal words. These activities
are developed for groups of fifteen teenager students of B1 level. This activities get
students involved into three main tasks. First, task one get students involved in a warm
up to introduce the new vocabulary. Second, task two develop a practice activity in class
and; finally, task three where the student have to produce different activities to
strengthen their knowledge. Actives also contains an answer sheet as a guideline for the
teacher.

CONCLUSION
The activities presented in these exercises illustrate how English words can be
composed and determines by meaning and structure. Vocabulary is an important part of
leaning a new language; it is not only the knowledge of a word but also implies how that
word fits into the world. Students Vocabulary is acquired incidentally through indirect
exposure. It is important to develop word-learning strategies and word-play activities to get
students involved and motivate them to learn the vocabulary.

ESSAY
THE IMPORTANCE OF MORPHOLOGY IN THE TEACHING OF ENGLISH
LANGUAGE IN ECUADOR.
English considered a foreign language in Ecuador is one of the most studied
languages in the country. When people start to learn a second language find that it is not
only use grammar and know how to write it, it is important to acquire a new language since
their grammatical construction. In the case of students who are involved in the study of a
language in depth can understand it easily. When an English student is able to identify and
articulate English sounds is ready to start with morphology. Morphology contributes to the
learning process of any language. On my view, there are three important points why it is
important to teach morphology to English students. First, teach to the student to identify
root words and affixes, there could be words which are difficult to understand, when a
student is able to identify the meaning of any affixation (prefix, suffix) is able to define the
meaning of the word easily. Second, making students understand clearly about inflection
and derivation. Inflection to understand the grammatical variants of a word and derivation
to understand the change of the grammatical categories when forming a new words those
based on an existing one. Finally, identifying words with predictable and unpredictable
meaning. The vocabulary plays an important role in the learning process; that is why
teachers should develop strategies and techniques to teach new vocabulary to help students
to be able to predict the meaning in relation to the context. Those aspects make students
develop their learning process and acquire the language faster.

FINAL REFLECTION
As future English teacher Phonology II module contributed and strengthened to my
teaching process, learning thought methods and strategies for the teaching of English
language. In addition, I am able to elaborate different materials and activities using
Morphological basic concepts that I have learned during this semester.
The main goal of taking Phonology module II was learn the language since its construction,
what it is important because now I am able to identify relations between words, roots and
predict meaning. Evaluations, activities and also the studied of two books were part of the
syllabus that contributes to the improvement of my English skills. As future English
teacher am able I to develop different kind of activities to my future students. For example,
design activities which contains affixation, these activities help students to recognize
(suffixes, prefixes), learn the meaning and guest the correct use of affixation by the context
and meaning. Morphology is not only study basic concepts but also apply them in class.
As future professional I consider the main goal is to be competent and responsible of what
students learn. For that reason, it is important to achieve the main purposes of this module
because are the basis to understand and learn a language.
