Kohn 2018_ELF - From research to pedagogy_RELC Conf 12-14 March 2018Kurt Kohn
The evolution of research on English as a lingua franca (ELF) is characterized by three major paradigm shifts from ‘variety’ to ‘communicative use’ to ‘translanguaging practice’. These shifts are accompanied by pedagogical suggestions for ELT, which all have in common that they are generally met with suspicion and resistance from ELT professionals (e.g. “Do you want me to teach incorrect English?”). In my talk I will address this conflict between ELT and ELF with the aim of reconciliation. From the perspective of a social constructivist understanding of language learning and communication, special attention will be given to a reconceptualization of Communicative Language Teaching focusing on three issues: a creatively open pedagogical orientation towards Standard (Native Speaker) English, speaker satisfaction as an endonormative criterion of communicative success, and implementation of English (or any other target language) as a pedagogical lingua franca. Results from pedagogical research projects in the European secondary school context will be used to discuss the pedagogical potential of telecollaboration for involving learners of English in authentic intercultural communication and thereby helping them to develop an emancipated non-native speaker identity and thus to become speakers of English.
Impact of teaching Speaking Skills to Indian Technical StudentsDr.Deepanjali Mishra
Speaking is a communicative process of developing and exchanging meaning through the use of words in oral form explaining a wide range of situation. It is a crucial part of second language learning and teaching. Speaking comprises of one of the four skills of communication. As we all are aware of the fact that English is globally used as a medium of communication which has gained momentum with the emerging trend of internet world, speaking skills should be developed in a more effective way along with three other skills namely Listening, Reading and Writing in-order to enhance communication. This would be beneficial to the native as well as non native speakers of English. In the Indian context, the capability to communicate in English has become important because of its relevance in getting jobs and sitting for campus interviews. We find some Bollywood movies which give emphasis on speaking English like ‘English - Vinglish ’ . It reflects the psychological constraint of an individual who is unable to speak English and hence making efforts to join English classes. This can be a challenging task for all the people who want to learn a non native language .Though Speaking skill is one of the most important skills of communication, yet it is deprived of its importance in our Indian classroom especially in technical institutions where the learners are future engineers and it is expected that the engineering students would acquire the speaking skill from the activities which are discussed in the class. As a result,, these young engineering students and learners of the English language fail to acquire proper training and skill which decreases their confidence to communicate in English

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2. Within the ELT (English Language Teaching) field,
the nation that the native speaker of English is the
ideal teacher was a tenet formulated at the
Commonwealth Conference in the teaching of
English as a second language (Philipson 1992).
Native English
Speaker (NES)
Non Native
English Speaker
(NNES)
What
Is
3. The term of Native English Speaker (NES) is
commonly used to refer to people who
learned a language in a natural setting from
childhood as first or sole language
Kachru &
Nelson 1996
Philipson 1992
He assumed that Native English Speaker (NES)
teacher are:
• Better linguistic model
• Have the ability to use language more fluently
and idiomatically
• Are aware of the cultural connotations of the
language
• Can rely in intuition to make accurate linguistic
judgments
Canagarajah (1999)
state that Non-native
English speaker
(NNES) teachers
constitute up to 80%
of English teacher
around the world.
4. Other researcher also question the validity of the NES
construct, and by extension, challenge the notion that the
native speaker is the ideal English teacher.
Kramsch (1998a: 79-80) argues that the native english speaker
construct is an abstraction based on arbitrarily selected
features of pronunciation, grammar, lexicon, as well as on
stereotypical features of appearance and act, and that the
construct relies on the assumption that native English speaker
are monolingual and monocultural, and speak only standard
variety of the language.
5. Native English
Speaker
(NES)
Davies (1991, 1995, 2002,
2003) argues that the NES
construct is a myth, but we
need this myth as a model
and a goal.
Liu (1999) argues that research in this area
is needed since it would help to explain
the extent to which the labels affect not
only Non Native English Speaker
educators’ self-image but also their
instructional practices and ultimately
their students development
6. Perceptions of Non-native
English-speaking Educators
Research on students perception about NNES educators
has focused on two areas:
1. Teachers’ accentedness
2. Teachers’ pedagogical skills
7. Studies that have explored how teacher accentedness in
English affect students’ perception about teachers
lead to three conclusions:
1. NNES teachers may play a more important role in
the development of students’ attitude toward the
teachers than does the teachers’ accentedness in
English.
2. Students are capable of distinguishing between the
accent of NES and NNES teachers with ‘a high
degree of accuracy’
3. Language learners do not necessarily perceive
accentedness to be criterion for the ideal English
teacher.
8. Students’ perception of NNES teachers’ pedagogical skills
1. Both NES and NNES educators are perceived to be good
teachers, each with their unique strengths.
2. There is some support for the idea that ESL and EFL
students prefer to study listening, pronunciation, and
speaking with NES rather than NNES teachers.
3. ESL and EFL learner perceive NES teacher as being more
knowledgeable than their NNES counterparts in the area
of target language(TL) culture.
4. ESL and EFL students favor NNES educators in the area of
grammar teaching.
5. Students were aware that literacy skills and oral skills are
different in nature and that regardless of language
background, reading and writing skills require studying.
9. Looking to the Future
Considering the growth in research focusing on NNES
educators, future studies need to take into account
two factors, they are:
1. Future investigation would benefit from not treating
NES and NNES educators as having absolute
characteristic.
2. Future research should move beyond issues of self-
perception of language proficiency.
10. The Decline and Fall of
The Native Speaker
Non-Native Speakers refer to those teacher whose
mother tongue is not the same as the language
they are teaching (NNS)
Native Speakers refer to those teacher whose
mother tongue is the same as the language they
are teaching (NS)
11. Some Issues About NS-NNS
Exemplify the approach NNS were paired to or
compared with NS
Theoretical foundation of distinction NS and NNS
Typically on perception native as positive and non native
as negative feature
No purely linguistic properties could be exclusively
associated to native speaker
12. The views about NS and NNS
Davies (2003) : NS is acceptance as a
significance portion of member of a
speech community
Liu (1999) : A Continuum approach
reflect the reality of several people
who can not label them selves as either
NS or NNS
Piller (2002) : An Advanced L2 users can
temporary take a native speaker
identity
13. The reasons L2 users flip into NS
• The particular type of communicative performance
the speaker is involved in
• The incorporation of local speech features in a way
that coincides with stereotypes of audiences
• The medium used for the communicative
encounters (oral, written and electronic) ; and
• The interlocuters
14. Research on Non Native Speaking Teacher
• In the past native teacher applied the method stressing on
the important of foreign language because they were not
available in a given context
• However, When CLT appeared, native speakers were ideal
for promoting natural and spontaneous communications.
• Native teachers as the ideal teacher were equivalent to
monolingual native speaker because of the good
knowledge of L1
• Native teachers were worth more than non-native and only
non-native with near native proficiency could enjoy a
certain prestige in the language teaching profession.
• The effects of being a non-native teacher on professional
self esteem and discrimination by NS teacher, NNEST
found typical preference for NS model and NS teacher.
15. Is there anything wrong with NS teachers
• A higher role and better appreciation of NNS
condition does not carry down-grading of NS.
• The quality of NNS may challenge to those NS who
are convinced that their sole NS condition makes
them good teacher
• A great in pulse to increase assertiveness of NNS by
many NS who have contributed with the work
• Finally, NS and NNS are all teacher need
pedagogical training and knowledge of the
language being taught
16. The advantages of vindicating the role of non
native speaker in language teacher
• They are a model for imitation
• They can successfully teach strategies of language
learning
• They have high level of awareness of the language
and can supply information about it
• They can anticipate the difficulties along the learning
process
• They can be more empathetic to the need and
problem of student
• They often have the same mother tongue as their
student and they can act as mediator between
difference language and culture
• They have familiarity of the local context
17. Internal Diversity among Native and
Non-Native Speaker
• NNS have often been reduced to a single
homogeneous group in many discussion and it
makes a simple stereotype valid for all individual case
• Native speakerism constitutes a manifestation of the
more general phenomenon of culturalism and racism
• Monolingual NS experience of language learning is
in the babyhood is and the process of learning is not
accesible for examination by the speakers
18. Critical Approaches to Language Teaching :
the decline and fall of NS
• The teacher use the process and the methodology
teaching such as Natural Approach, Audio Lingual
Method and Communicative Language Teaching
and It needs teacher’s fluency and capacity to use
the language. It’s contradicted to the traditional
grammar translation method which focuses on the
appraisal of native speaker.
• Non-native speaker may be as good teacher as
native speaker and the good language teaching
requires a good command of language of training
ability to teach a language.
• Native and non-native distinction are a one of the
characteristic element of language teaching, there
are no native speaker for physics and mathematics.
• NNS have now finally gathered to voice their
concern and claim their right to be heard in the
language teaching and research community.
