Hi John, how are you?
John: I'm doing well, thanks for asking! Just finished my exams and looking forward to relaxing over the summer. How about you?
Assistant: I'm doing great! Just got back from a fun weekend trip to the beach with some friends. The weather was perfect. So what are your plans for the summer? Any fun trips planned?
John: That sounds like a nice trip! No big trips planned yet, but I'm hoping to visit my grandparents upstate for a week in July. Other than that just relaxing at home and hanging out with friends. What about you, any other trips on your schedule?
Assistant: No other trips planned yet but I'd love to take a weekend
This document discusses tone of voice and provides examples of different tones. It defines tone as the attitude of a speaker toward a subject or audience. Examples of tones include cynical, cheerful, and angry. The document notes that tone is conveyed through word choice and viewpoint. It also discusses how tone impacts intonation and pitch. Strategies are provided for using an appropriate tone in different situations. Tips are given for improving one's tone of voice, such as breathing properly and getting feedback. The document concludes that tone helps gain trust and support from others.
The document discusses verbal and non-verbal communication. It describes tasks where students built newspaper towers both with and without verbal communication. It explains that verbal communication is important for discussing ideas in a group, while non-verbal communication is important for those with speech difficulties. Good communication skills in groups include speaking clearly, allowing others to speak, and not speaking over each other. Poor communication can cause ideas to be missed or arguments to ruin presentations. The document also provides guidelines for group discussions and debates.
The storyboard outlines the documentary structure for a film about Hope FM radio. It introduces the radio station and its coverage area through establishing shots. It then shows the interview process, giving background on staff members like Dan, Ryan, Victoria, and Sheena. Staff discuss how Hope FM is life changing and rewarding, with positive impacts on both listeners and employees. Key motifs like the studio and microphones are represented. The storyboard captures the people and community aspects of the local radio station.
This document discusses how a person's voice image impacts others' perceptions and discusses qualities of positive and negative voice images. It notes that voice, like appearance, creates instant judgments. A negative voice may be nasal, shrill, monotonous, mumbled, too loud/quiet. This leads others to see the speaker as shy, lazy, or lacking confidence. A positive voice is relaxed, varied in pace/pitch/tone, and makes one seem confident and engaging. It encourages listening to recordings of one's own voice to identify areas to improve breath control, articulation, volume, pitch, tone, pausing and rate.
This document provides information about communication skills. It discusses what makes a good communicator, including fluency, vocabulary, listening skills, and body language. It lists good communication traits like being articulate and persuasive, as well as bad traits like being hesitant or rambling. The document includes exercises on reading, listening, and role playing a communication scenario between a marketing manager and overseas agent discussing advertising plans, with the agent asking the manager to clarify details due to a poor phone connection.
The document provides useful tips for presenters doing interviews. It recommends finding out the location and format (live or pre-recorded) of the interview in advance. Presenters should also research the audience and topic to understand expectations and connect with listeners. They should prepare responses to potential criticisms or unexpected questions. During the interview, presenters should stick to their main points, avoid nervous habits, stay hydrated and comfortable, speak engagingly to their audience, and keep their cool.

David Bradshaw presented on writing activities for primary classrooms, especially CLIL classrooms. He has over 20 years experience teaching in bilingual schools in Spain. The presentation covered early writing activities, extended writing tasks, and adapting activities for different subjects and abilities. Examples included labeling, rearranging words, writing recipes and descriptions, letter writing, and assessing comprehension of stories through pictures and words. The goal is to engage students in creating and communicating through writing in fun, scaffolded ways across the curriculum.
Mary Lamas gave a presentation at the GRETA Annual Conference on using drama activities to teach English. Some key points included:
- Drama activities help improve students' self-confidence, sociability, pronunciation, fluency, intonation, stress patterns, rhythm, and communication strategies while also conveying cultural aspects.
- Drama can be integrated at any stage of learning to practice challenging grammar points or consolidate topic areas, and provides an opportunity for students to have fun.
- Activities can take place anywhere, including the classroom, assembly hall, outdoors, or online, and can include short sketches, speeches, performances, or musicals.
- Practicing pronunciation through activities like breathing exercises, working
Since the arrival of Interactive Whiteboards in our classrooms three years ago, we have witnessed varied responses from teachers, principals and stakeholders. IWBs are expensive and didactically powerful devices which should be made the most of, as an effective usage proves to have excellent results in terms of methodology and assessment implementation. This talk explores IWBs actual possibilities regarding linguistic and digital competence achievement and aspects such as classroom management; IWB tools, techniques and applications; or training and continuing professional development.
Conversation analysis (CA) is a qualitative method that systematically explores how people use language in interaction. It focuses on analyzing naturally occurring, everyday conversations through detailed transcription. Key aspects of CA include turn-taking structure, adjacency pairs, repair sequences, and turn design. CA aims to describe the organization of talk-in-interaction through close examination of verbal and nonverbal behaviors. Transcription conventions are used to capture features like intonation, pauses, overlaps, and laughter. CA provides an emic perspective for understanding the nuances and organization of ordinary conversation.
Pragmatics: Conversation and Preference StructureEko Alreza
Conversation analysis is a method for studying social interaction through analyzing ordinary conversation. It focuses on how participants exchange talk and social actions on a turn-by-turn basis through mechanisms like turn-taking, transition relevance places, and turn-constructional units. Key aspects of conversation that are examined include pauses, overlaps, backchannels, conversational styles, adjacency pairs, opening and closing sections, and preference structure.
The document discusses integrating discourse analysis and pragmatics into teaching grammar. It begins by defining pragmatics and outlining some key pragmatic concepts like implicature, presupposition, and conversational maxims. It then analyzes an episode of an English language TV show to identify violations of the maxims. Finally, it argues that teaching grammar should develop both grammatical competence and discourse/pragmatic competence. Teachers should focus on how sentences are combined into coherent and pragmatically appropriate discourse. This approach helps students understand and produce language in context.
This document provides an overview of discourse analysis techniques for analyzing conversations. It discusses universal constraints that apply to all communication systems, such as turn-taking signals and repair messages. It also describes specific transcription conventions used in discourse analysis, including symbols for overlap, pauses, stress, and intonation. Finally, it outlines ritual constraints that govern conversation, such as open/close signals and backchannel responses.
Conversation Discourse and Document AnalysisMike Crabb
This document provides information on studying discourse through analyzing conversations and documents. It discusses generating an archive of various materials, the practicalities of recording audio and video sources, and methods for transcribing recordings. Conversation analysis is explored by examining structural organization and how refusals are handled. Analyzing documents involves considering how and where they were read or used. Overall, the document outlines different approaches for exploring language use through discourse studies.
This document discusses discourse markers, which are words and phrases used to connect and organize ideas in spoken or written language. Some key points:
- Discourse markers help manage the flow and structure of conversation by signalling transitions between topics or parts of discussion.
- Common discourse markers in English include "well," "so," "anyway," "okay," and "right."
- Discourse markers can indicate starting or ending a conversation, changing topics, ordering points, expressing shared or new information, and responding to others.
- Words like "I mean," "you know," and "in other words" help rephrase or clarify statements.
The document discusses the structure of conversations, which consists of an opening phase, topic development phase, and closing phase. The opening phase signals the start of conversation through topic initiation. The topic development phase keeps the conversation going through topic maintenance and allows speakers to shift topics. The closing phase allows speakers to end the exchange. It also discusses turn-taking systems, which involve turn-getting, turn-keeping, turn-yielding, and turn-accepting. Guidelines for casual conversations include the present speaker choosing the next or another speaker self-selecting.

Day 5 - From Discourse to Social Contexts.pptxDivaMaulida2
The document discusses how context affects language use and meaning. It provides examples of how social contexts like relationships and settings influence the type of discourse used. It then defines pragmatics as the study of how context influences meaning. The rest of the document discusses various pragmatic markers like discourse markers, stance markers, hedges, and interjections which provide cues about speakers' intentions and attitudes. It provides examples and functions of each marker.
The document discusses adjacency pairs and conversation analysis (CA). Some key points:
- Adjacency pairs refer to common question-answer, offer-acceptance patterns in conversations where one utterance expects a particular response.
- CA examines the sequential structure and progression of conversations through adjacency pairs and how each utterance shapes the next. Context is created through talk rather than external to it.
- There are limitations to CA as it does not provide an exhaustive list of pairs and does not consider sociolinguistic context. However, its focus is on qualitative analysis of conversational structure.
- The cooperative principle and its maxims of quantity, quality, relation and manner guide conversational expectations but can be flouted

This document outlines 10 skills for inferential listening on the TOEFL exam. The skills include focusing on specific lines, identifying synonyms, avoiding similar sounding choices, identifying who, what and where in conversations, identifying subjects and objects in passive voice, identifying subjects and objects with multiple nouns, listening for negative expressions, listening for double negatives, listening for almost negative expressions, and listening for negatives with comparatives. For each skill, an example conversation and response options are provided.
The document contains an English lesson plan for 10th grade students on the topic of expressions of invitation. It includes the learning objectives, which are for students to be able to identify specific information from dialogs and identify the type of invitation being extended. The lesson materials include several dialogs involving accepting or declining various social invitations such as dinner, movies, a concert, and a birthday party. Students will listen to the dialogs and answer comprehension questions to practice recognizing invitation language.
The document discusses the concept of language awareness and how it has been defined in various sources over time. While early definitions emphasized conscious awareness, later analyses note that awareness exists on both conscious and unconscious levels. The discussion critiques the language awareness literature for largely ignoring pragmatics and evidence from pragmatic phenomena, which can provide insights into implicit and procedural aspects of awareness.

This document contains an English lesson plan for 10th grade students on the topics of expressions of invitation, gratitude, and accepting or declining invitations. The plan outlines learning standards and objectives, materials, activities, and assessment. It includes sample dialogues and worksheets for students to practice identifying meanings from audio recordings and completing exchanges using appropriate expressions. The lesson introduces expressions for inviting, accepting, declining, and thanking others, and has students practice comprehending and producing simple spoken exchanges involving these functions.
The document discusses discourse markers and interactional signals in dialogue. It provides examples of discourse markers that signal initiation of ideas, amazement, contrast, and consequences. Discourse markers serve to show how utterances are connected and can operate at the local and global level. Interactional signals help with cooperation and include attention signals, response elicitors, and backchannels. More discourse markers are presented that can introduce, conclude, or contrast ideas. The document encourages identifying and categorizing examples of vague words, fillers, discourse markers, and interactional signals used in dialogues.
This lesson plan teaches turn-taking processes in conversations. It is for a class of 40 students aged 17-18 years old and will last 15 minutes. The lesson will define turn-taking, adjacency pairs, and different conversation sequences. Students will learn about cultural differences in turn-taking and factors like eye contact, body language, and status that influence conversations. They will analyze example conversations and adjacency pairs, and consider why repair is sometimes needed in turn-taking. A test will assess students' understanding of the concepts covered in the lesson.
There are 4 lessons in this unit that teach about neighborhoods and local events. Lesson A teaches about nice places in one's neighborhood using the grammar structures "there's" and "there are" to talk about quantities. Lesson B focuses on telling time and discussing what events are happening on the weekend. Lesson C covers agreeing and showing similarities using expressions like "me too" and "me neither" as well as the phrases "right" and "I know". The final lesson, Lesson D, involves reading, discussing advertising, and creating bulletin board announcements about local events.

This document provides strategies for teaching content and language integrated learning (CLIL) to young learners ages 5-11. It discusses creating environments where students can work collaboratively, learn how to learn, and develop thinking skills. Key strategies include stretching higher-order thinking skills, being aware of cognitive academic language proficiency, scaffolding language and content, and planning lessons with tuning in, finding out, and sorting out activities. Visual aids, games, and hands-on activities are emphasized to make lessons engaging and help students learn content through the target language of English.
This document discusses using media such as TV shows, movies, and online videos to teach English. It provides examples of classroom activities that incorporate media, such as having students discuss TV show characters, fill in lyrics to theme songs, predict movie plots, and describe screenshots from online games. The goal is to leverage students' interest in popular media to engage them in practicing English listening, speaking, and writing skills in an enjoyable way.
The document discusses the training needs of teachers in the 21st century. It suggests that teacher training should focus on both content knowledge, such as effective language teaching methods, as well as pedagogical skills, like classroom management and motivating students. Teacher training needs to equip educators to develop students' life skills and "21st century skills", including digital literacy, collaboration, problem solving and global citizenship. While access to training varies, it is important for developing teachers' understanding of what and how to teach to meet current education needs.
Este documento describe la introducción de asignaturas de idiomas aplicados a la música en los conservatorios españoles. Anteriormente, los músicos tenían que estudiar idiomas de forma privada y no recibían una formación especializada. Ahora, varios conservatorios ofrecen asignaturas optativas de inglés y alemán aplicados a la música. El documento también presenta los objetivos e implementación de la asignatura de Inglés Aplicado a la Música en el Conservatorio Superior de Granada.
This document discusses using podcasts in tertiary education to enhance language learning. It argues that podcasts allow for active student engagement through group collaboration, frequent interaction, and feedback. Students can practice and reinforce oral skills by recording podcasts. This promotes autonomy and lifelong learning. When integrated into a blended learning model with an LMS platform, podcasts provide scaffolding, learner support, language recycling, and consolidation. This fosters cognitive and social development while addressing affective factors. Challenges include the digital divide and maintaining student motivation in asynchronous environments. Overall, podcasts promote more active participation compared to traditional methods.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
Threats to mobile devices are more prevalent and increasing in scope and complexity. Users of mobile devices desire to take full advantage of the features
available on those devices, but many of the features provide convenience and capability but sacrifice security. This best practices guide outlines steps the users can take to better protect personal devices and information.
