Understanding New Learners and Reconsidering Learning Pathways - Teaching and...Cristina Felea
This is a presentation for the ClipFlair conference organised by the Faculty of Letters (Babes-Bolyai University) in Cluj-Napoca, Romania, 9-10 May 2014.
Teaching English as a Foreign Language (EFL, ESL) is an attractive professional choice, with increasingly varied career and research options. Since the early 1960s, English for Specific Purposes (ESP) has gradually become one of its prominent areas, with various sub-fields gaining recognition and being subject of (interdisciplinary) research ranging from applied linguistics and communication to psycho- and sociolinguistics and intercultural studies. The provisions for the study of foreign languages, particularly English, in Romanian higher education, have followed closely or even preceded the developments needed to adjust to the changes affecting economy, society and education in the aftermath of the historical events in 1989 and the country’s admission in the European Union (2007).
The current paper describes the case of ESP in Babes-Bolyai University, by tracing its beginnings and coming of age and presenting the challenges raised by current issues of student internalisation, academic study/communication needs and the new perspectives growing from the emerging paradigm of lifelong learning and the integration of Information and Communication Technologies. The author’s personal experience in implementing a blended learning environment for teaching ESP is used to highlight the benefits and the challenges encountered in the process as well as directions for future developments. Finally, based on the view that ESP is a work-in-progress, founded on the continuous analysis of needs, means and institutional and cultural contexts, a curricular and research proposal is made that includes solutions for the development of learning skills needed in academic study, continuous language learning and lifelong learning.

Task-Based Language Teaching, an analytic approach focusing on form, with a task-based syllabus starting with output and putting emphasis on learning outcomes, may have a positive impact on the development of learners’ language proficiency and thinking skills in L2 classrooms. By implementing a TBLT approach which is free from the limitation of synthetic approach focusing on forms and analytic approach focusing on meaning, L2 learners can benefit from its efficiency promoting both in communication competence and linguistic awareness. In addition to the advantage of TBLT approaches, a task-based syllabus, as one of the typical backward design, focusing on output or learning outcomes, are more effective in enhancing learners’ language proficiency than that in other syllabuses focusing on input or process. Moreover, learners’ thinking skills can be achieved in a task-based syllabus integrating language proficiency with thinking skill tasks.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

7. Advantages children benefit from in
learning a foreign language:
• Children’s greater potential for developing accurate pronunciation,
accent and fluency before puberty
• Children’s favorable attitude towards a language and its culture,
either their mother tongue or a second language.
• Children’s less mental barriers of learning than adults
• Children’s learning two languages simultaneously without suffering
from inter-lingual interference
• Listening along with speaking, a preliminary and preferable role in
the natural order of language acquisition for children
• But “learners of different ages have different characteristics” is more
preferable than the critical hypothesis. Besides, accurate
pronunciation is not the most important goal of language learning
but a necessary or desirable goal. There are also other factors that
determine the effectiveness of one’s language learning such as
teacher’s language competence, the learning environment and so on.

to describe the teaching of English in situations where it is a second
language or to refer to any situation where English is taught to speakers of
other languages.

11. Deductive and Inductive learning
• Deductive learning of grammar— is an approach to language learning in
which learners are taught rules and given specific information about a
language. They then apply these rules when they use the language. For
example, in the grammar translation method, specific grammar rules are
given to learners and practice subsequently follows to familiarize students
with the rule. The features of it are time-saving and suitable for adult
learners who can afford abstract thinking. Besides it is widely used in EFL
contexts where exposure to the target language is limited and the length of
instruction time is short. (e.g. GTM, adult learners, FI/analytic learners,
EFL contexts)
•
• Inductive learning— is an approach to language learning in which learners
are not taught grammatical or other types of rules directly but are left to
discover or induce rules from their experience of using the language.
Language teaching methods which emphasize use of the language rather
than presentation of information about the language include the direct
method, the communicative approach and counseling learning. The
features of it are time-consuming and applicable to young learners in
natural settings such as ESL contexts.

12. Performance and competence
• Performance-- a person’s actual use of language;
how a person uses his knowledge of a language in
producing and understanding sentences.
• Competence-- a person’s knowledge of a language
• People may have the competence to produce a long
sentence but when they actually try to use this
knowledge, there are reasons why they restrict it. For
example, they may run out of breath or their listeners
forget what has been said if the sentence is too long. Due
to performance factors such as fatigue, lack of attention,
nervousness or excitement, their actual use of language
may not reflect their competence. The errors they make
are described as examples of performance.

• Acquisition--the processes by which people
naturally develop proficiency in a language
• Learning-- the processes by which people
formally develop language proficiency.

14. Bottom-up processing vs. top-down
processing
• Top-down processing—a way in which humans
analyze and process language as part of the process
of comprehension and learning by making use of
previous knowledge (higher-level knowledge) in
analyzing and processing information which is
received such as one’s expectations, experience,
schemata in reading the text.
• Bottom-up processing— a way making use
principally of information which is already present
in the data (words, sentences, etc.) such as
understanding a text mainly by analyzing the words
and sentences in the text itself.

15. Teacher-centered vs. learner-centered
teaching
• Teacher-centered (fronted) teaching— a
teaching style in which instruction is closely
managed and controlled by the teacher, where
students often respond in unison to teacher
questions, and where whole-class instruction is
preferred to other methods.
• Learner-centered teaching— methods of
teaching which emphasizes the active role of
students in learning, tries to give learners more
control over what and how they learn and
encourages learners to take more responsibility for
their own learning. It is encouraged by many current
teaching approaches.

“I don't want to give advice to a 19-
year-old, because I want a 19-year-
old to make mistakes and learn from
them. Make mistakes, make
mistakes, make mistakes. Just make

for example) is not A SIN, NO?
Even making a mistake in English
will not kill you because
ENGLISH is just A LANGUAGE
not
A BOMB.
37. TIP
S• Sign up for a regular English tip (e.g. from
websites, radio, etc).
