Language acquisition is a developmental process where people build up their own language systems through comprehensible input and practice using the language. The more meaningful exposure and chances to use the language through negotiation of meaning with native speakers, the more is learned. While memorization and knowing about a language can help, true proficiency comes from analyzing and producing the language in a variety of social settings.

Language learning materials development
The document discusses various topics related to developing and evaluating language learning materials. It defines key terms like authentic and artificial materials. It also outlines different types of syllabus approaches that can be used in materials like situational and topical. The document provides guidelines for evaluating existing materials using checklists of criteria and describes strategies for developing new materials to fill gaps, such as analyzing objectives, classifying them, finding supplemental content, and reorganizing into a coherent curriculum.
Materials Development in ELT
Materials development stands as a crucial domain within ELT (English Language Teaching). For individuals aspiring to enhance and advance their English skills, the utilization of appropriate materials becomes imperative. Enclosed is a PowerPoint (PPT) file, the culmination of my comprehensive research on this subject, offering a historical overview of Materials development to aid your learning journey.
Plurality of English
There are two main approaches to defining language universals: Chomsky's focus on innate linguistic units in the brain and Greenberg's analysis of common patterns across languages. Standard English refers to an idealized norm used widely, while World Englishes describe regional variations that have emerged as English is used globally. Kachru's concentric circles model classifies contexts of English use into inner circle, outer circle, and expanding circle. Philippine English displays unique characteristics including interchange of consonants like "f" and "p" as well as terms like "nosebleed" and "traffic".
Children & Adolescent Literature
This document contains the lyrics to several classic children's songs, poems, and nursery rhymes. It also lists the titles of many well-known children's stories and fairy tales such as "The Tortoise and the Hare", "Alice in Wonderland", "Pinocchio", "Cinderella", and the "Harry Potter" series. The document appears to have been prepared by a student as reference material for a children's literature course.
Bilingual Education
The document discusses the history and types of bilingual education in the Philippines. It outlines how bilingual education evolved from primarily using English for instruction to adopting a policy of using Filipino and English as official languages, with certain subjects taught in either Filipino or English. The goals of bilingual education in the Philippines are to develop competence in both Filipino and English and further enrich Filipino as the national language.
Macro skills in learning
The document discusses the four macro skills of communication: listening, speaking, reading, and writing. It states that these are the fundamental skills needed to learn any language. When learning a new language, one must engage in balancing practice across all four of these skills. The skills that are not practiced will be weaker. The document then provides more details on each individual skill.
Material development in elt current issues
This document discusses issues related to materials used in English language teaching (ELT). It notes that commercial materials play a central role in most language instruction worldwide. While many publications on materials focus on design and development, the field remains under-researched. Course books in particular are still ubiquitous globally, though they have disadvantages like not meeting local needs and contexts. The document also discusses debates around global versus local materials, how teachers adapt to curriculum changes, and the impact of technology on ELT materials.
Instructed Language Learning
The document outlines 10 principles of instructed language learning based on theories of second language acquisition. The principles address the need to (1) develop formulaic expressions and rule-based competence, (2) focus on meaning, (3) focus on form, (4) develop implicit knowledge while not neglecting explicit knowledge, (5) account for learners' built-in syllabus, (6) provide extensive input, (7) provide opportunities for output, (8) provide opportunities for interaction, (9) account for individual differences, and (10) assess free production in addition to controlled production. The principles aim to synthesize research on how instruction can best support and interact with natural language acquisition processes.

Definition of literature and strategies in teaching literature
Definitions of Literature based on various sources and varied strategies on how to teach literature among students effectively.
Teaching speaking brown
The document discusses various techniques for teaching speaking skills, including both direct and indirect approaches. It emphasizes using tasks that focus on meaningful communication over language practice. Specific techniques mentioned include conversation practice, transactional activities like ordering from a catalog, and individual oral dialogue journals. Principles for designing speaking techniques include using a variety that cover accuracy and fluency, providing meaningful contexts, feedback, and opportunities for student initiation of oral communication. The document also discusses teaching pronunciation and considerations around error correction.
Ch1&Ch2
This document provides an overview of how to teach grammar, discussing various approaches and principles. It examines the case for and against explicitly teaching grammar. While the case against argues that grammar should not be separated from communication, the case for notes grammar enables fine-tuning of meaning and prevents fossilization of errors. Current approaches emphasize a focus on form within meaningful communication and consciousness-raising of grammatical structures. Basic principles of efficient and appropriate grammar instruction are also outlined.
Teaching Grammar
The document discusses various methods for teaching grammar in English language teaching (ELT), including the deductive and inductive methods. It also covers grammar presentation, practice, and exercises. Some key points made include: the deductive method can teach grammar in isolation while the inductive method has students discover rules through language use; grammar practice should involve mechanical and meaningful components; exercises should include recognition, drill, creative, and test activities; and form, meaning and use should all be considered when teaching grammar.
Factors that influence second language acquisition and learning
This document discusses several key factors that influence second language acquisition, including motivation, attitude, age, intelligence, aptitude, learning styles, and personality. Motivation is one of the most important factors, and can be either integrative, relating to interest in the language and its culture, or instrumental, relating to practical uses of the language. Other important influences include a learner's attitude towards the language and its community, their age and any critical periods for language learning, general and multiple types of intelligence, as well as their language learning aptitude, style, personality traits like inhibition, anxiety and empathy.
First language acquisition
Children acquire language through unconscious processes by being exposed to natural communication from a young age, rather than being explicitly taught grammatical rules. While knowing rules is different from competent usage and performance, various theories have attempted to explain the innate and environmental factors that contribute to a child's language development, including behaviorist, nativist, social interaction, and cognitive approaches. Competence refers to underlying knowledge while performance is observable application of that knowledge.
Nativist theory
Children are biologically predisposed to learn language through an innate Language Acquisition Device (LAD). The LAD contains innate linguistic principles and adjustable parameters that allow children to discover the grammatical rules of the language they are exposed to. By matching patterns in the environmental language input to their innate linguistic knowledge, children are able to unconsciously deduce and internalize the rules of that language.
Materials for developing writing skills
This document discusses materials for developing writing skills. It outlines four key roles of instructional materials: modeling, language scaffolding, reference, and stimulus. When selecting materials, teachers should consider their students' proficiency levels and needs. A variety of materials can be used, including textbooks, internet resources, and teacher-created materials. An effective model for material design includes input text, content focus, language focus, and writing tasks.
Eight approaches to language teaching-LET Review
The document summarizes eight approaches to language teaching: Grammar-Translation Method, Direct Method, Audio-Lingual Method, The Silent Way, Suggestopedia, Community Language Learning, Total Physical Response Method, and Communicative Approach. For each approach, it outlines the goals, roles of the teacher and students, and aspects of language emphasized.
Language, society and culture
This document discusses sociolinguistics and the relationship between language and society. It explains that speech communities share linguistic norms and expectations, and that language varies based on social factors like class, education, age, gender, ethnicity, and style/register. Variations include social dialects, over and covert prestige, as well as differences in formal and informal registers depending on the context and audience.
21 st century teaching language approaches
The document discusses the history and key aspects of various language teaching approaches. It begins by describing early approaches like the Grammar Translation Approach used for Latin and Greek. It then outlines several subsequent approaches that reacted to perceived limitations, including the Direct Method, Reading Approach, and Audio-Lingual Approach. Later sections summarize the Cognitive Approach, Affective-Humanistic Approach, Comprehension-Based Approach, and Communicative Approach. The summary emphasizes that approaches evolved in response to prior limitations and that modern approaches are grounded in theories of language learning and use.

Cooperative language learning
CLL is an instructional approach that uses cooperative learning activities in small groups. It is based on the idea that language learning is a social process that occurs through interaction. The key aspects of CLL include positive interdependence among group members, individual accountability, appropriate group roles and structures, and a focus on developing critical thinking and communicative skills through group work. The teacher takes on the role of facilitator by structuring collaborative tasks and monitoring groups.
Functional - Notional Approach
The document discusses the functional-notional approach to language teaching. It describes the historical background and basic claims of the approach. The functional-notional approach focuses on the communicative purposes and functions of language use. It emphasizes learning language through real-world functions like greetings, requests, apologies rather than through grammar rules. The approach is based on the idea that language learning should involve understanding functions, notions (vocabulary related to functions), and exponents (language forms used to express functions). It aims to help learners communicate effectively for different purposes.
Speech and Theater Arts
The document discusses communication and public speaking. It defines communication as the exchange of ideas and information between two or more individuals through a medium. Effective communication is achieved when the receiver understands and responds to the message. Public speaking is then discussed, noting that it has two components - content and delivery. Various aspects of speech delivery are outlined, including vocal aspects like pitch and rate, and bodily aspects like gestures and eye contact. Guidelines for outlining a speech and constructing an introduction, body, and conclusion are also provided.
CHAPTER-3-Rules-of-Grammar.pptx
This document outlines six rules for teaching grammar: context, use, economy, relevance, nurture, and appropriacy. It discusses each rule in detail, providing explanations for why each rule is important, what each rule entails, and examples of how to apply each rule when teaching grammar. The overall message is that grammar should be taught in a meaningful, engaging context to facilitate language acquisition and use, rather than just memorization of rules. Students learn best when grammar concepts are relevant to their lives and more time is spent practicing application of the concepts.

Teaching of writing
Writing can be classified into different types and modes according to its purpose and form. The types discussed are extensive writing, where the writer is given a subject to write about, and intensive writing, where the focus is on a specific point.
The writing process involves several steps: prewriting to explore the topic, drafting a rough version, revising to improve content and structure, editing for grammar and mechanics, and publishing the final work. Developing writing skills is important for school and career success.
Effective writing has clear ideas and organization, an engaging voice, precise word choice, varied sentence structure, and follows conventions of spelling and grammar. Various techniques can help students improve their writing, such as guided paraphrasing,
The nature of language slideshare.net
The document discusses three key views of the nature of language: structural, communicative, and interactional. It also covers definitions of learning, theories of language learning including process-oriented and condition-oriented theories, and differences between approaches, methods, and techniques in language teaching. The structural view sees language as a system of related elements, while the communicative view sees it as a vehicle for expression of meaning. The interactional view regards language as a tool for social interaction.
Language Planning and Policy
Language planning and policy aim to address issues that newly independent post-colonial states face regarding their multi-ethnic populations and national identity, including what languages to adopt officially. After independence, Algeria's leaders followed a nationalist model and decided to promote Arabic through Arabization policies to help unify the country under their regime. Arabization imposed Arabic in administration, education, and public sector work to standardize the country's language and culture. It was a process that elevated Arabic from a foreign language to the national language of Algeria.
6. Principles About Language Acquisition
Language acquisition is a developmental process where people build up their own language system through comprehensible input. It is important to have chances to practice with native speakers, improve skills like pronunciation over time with repetition, and acquire the grammatical system early to use language creatively. Learners need meaningful exposure in a variety of social settings to fully develop their language abilities.

For a comprehensive approach to spoken English, our Online Speaking English Course offers a structured curriculum, interactive lessons, and personalized feedback to help you develop fluency, pronunciation, and communication skills.
What educators need to know about language
Course designers need to consider the environment, needs, goals, format and assessment when planning a language curriculum. Language is more than labeling objects - it is linked to our perceptions and experience. The primary purpose of language is communication, so the focus should be on developing communicative competence rather than perfect grammar. Language is also systematic, with words, prefixes/suffixes organized according to the rules of morphology, semantics and syntax. Different regions have language variations in accents, vocabulary and sentence structure. When teaching language, educators should focus on communication and its systematic nature to motivate students rather than relying on repetition and correction.

Second language acquisition and error analysis (arfan rai)
Error analysis is a technique used to analyze the errors made by second language learners. It involves collecting language samples from learners, identifying the errors, classifying them, and determining their sources. The key steps are collecting errors, identifying them, describing them, explaining them, and evaluating/correcting them. Error analysis helps determine areas of difficulty for learners and inform teaching. It replaced contrastive analysis as a way to investigate learner language. While it provided insights, error analysis has limitations such as not accounting for correct usage and development over time.
Skyline Language
1. Language is a system of symbols used to communicate ideas between individuals that must be learnable by children and understandable by adults.
2. Language has building blocks including phonemes, morphemes, phrases, sentences, and rules of syntax. It conveys meaning through semantic features, prototypes, and semantic roles.
3. Theories of language development include nativist, nurturist, and interactionist views. Children progress from babbling to first words to telegraphic speech to grammatically correct sentences according to developmental stages.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing Days
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.
