21st century skills. Some ideas about teaching english today and tomorrow.The BKC-IH Teacher Training Centre
The presentation will introduce you to the different ways teachers can help learners to be better prepared for life in the 21st century. There are many ideas which teachers are already using every day such as Global Awareness and Cross Curricular Skills, Critical Thinking and Problem Solving, Communication and Collaboration. The author of the presentation reflects on how we can develop such skills while teaching English to our students.
Language Learning Strategies
This document provides an introduction to language learning strategies and styles. It defines language learning strategies as activities used by learners to improve their language learning, such as obtaining, storing, retrieving, and using information. Learning styles reflect one's multiple intelligences and preferred ways of learning. The document identifies eight multiple intelligences: logical/mathematical, visual/spatial, verbal/linguistic, bodily/kinesthetic, musical/rhythmic, interpersonal, intrapersonal, and naturalist. It categorizes language learning strategies as direct, indirect, memory, cognitive, compensation, metacognitive, affective, and social strategies. Finally, it notes that the document is a course book in progress for begin

To date, numerous books and research articles have focused on the notion of syllabus design
and curriculum development. Nevertheless, very few works have had an inclusive and concise
look upon the issue. This paper is an account of current trends on syllabus design and
curriculum development in Second Language Acquisition in the recent past decades. This is
hopefully intended to offer a descriptive and critical interpretation of the existing syllabuses in
the domain of language learning and teaching. After a brief introductory remark on
curriculum and syllabus types, 13 of the most prominent syllabuses in SLA will be elaborated
on separately. In pursuit of doing so, definition, rationale, merits, and drawbacks attributed to
each syllabus will be touched upon. Although the emergence of some of these syllabi
coincides with each other, while presenting them, it has been tried to follow a roughly
chronological order of their emergence.
Terminology Management
Brief overview of the whys, hows and whens of terminology management; includes references and resources.
Origins of language curriculum development
The document discusses key considerations in language curriculum development, including determining what content to teach (vocabulary, grammar structures), how to organize and sequence that content, and criteria for selecting which elements to prioritize. It provides examples of approaches for selecting vocabulary based on frequency of use, range of usage, and teachability. For grammar, suggestions include prioritizing simple structures, conversational elements, and patterns ordered by learnability based on learner interviews. The goal is to determine the most useful elements and an optimal progression for bringing about intended learning outcomes.
Phonetic and phonological transfer
This document discusses how sounds and sound patterns transfer between languages when learning a new language. It outlines 6 types of segmental errors and discusses suprasegmental patterns involving stress, tone, and intonation. Native language influence is an important factor in acquiring a new language's phonetics and phonology. Differences in sounds, phonological rules, syllable structure, and frequency of phonemes across languages can lead to errors for language learners.
Need analysis for curriculum development.pptx
This document discusses the importance and process of conducting a needs analysis for curriculum development. It explains that needs analysis originated in the 1960s-1970s for language teaching and identifies several purposes, including determining student needs, evaluating existing curriculums, and identifying gaps. The document outlines procedures for administering a needs analysis, such as determining the target population, collecting information through questionnaires and interviews, and designing the analysis. Overall, needs analysis is presented as a crucial first step to ensure curriculum validity and relevance for students.
Stages of second language acquisition
There are 5 stages of second language acquisition:
1. Preproduction stage - Learners listen but do not speak, focusing on vocabulary acquisition.
2. Early production stage - Learners begin speaking in short phrases and sentences with errors.
3. Speech emergence stage - Learners communicate using longer phrases and sentences with context clues and familiar topics, and errors decrease.

Elicitation techniques
This document discusses elicitation techniques used in language research, including production tasks, interviews, and questionnaires. Production tasks aim to elicit natural language samples but are time-consuming. Interviews can be structured, semi-structured, or unstructured and allow flexibility but introduce bias. Questionnaires use closed and open questions and must be carefully designed and piloted to avoid confusion and bias. Responses require categorization and quantification to analyze qualitative data. Proper planning and conduct of interviews and questionnaires is important to obtain valid results.
Needs analysis for curriculum design
An efficient needs analysis for curriculum design should involve gathering data from primary, secondary, and tertiary stakeholders using questionnaires, interviews, and other techniques. Needs analysis is important for understanding the target situation and learning situation, and needs are neither universal nor permanent. A good needs analysis is systematic, uses triangulation of methods and sources, and favors integrating English for academic purposes courses with disciplinary programs.
Clil presentation
CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning) is an educational approach that teaches subjects through the medium of a foreign language. It aims to develop both subject knowledge and language skills simultaneously rather than separately. CLIL lessons combine content, communication, cognition, and culture. Language is used to learn the subject matter rather than being the objective itself. A successful CLIL lesson balances these four components to teach curriculum content through meaningful use of the target language.
The origins of language curriculum development (Presentase)
The document discusses the history of curriculum development and syllabus design in language teaching. It notes that syllabus design is one aspect of curriculum development but is not identical to it. Throughout the 20th century, changes in language teaching approaches drove changes in methods, including the grammar translation method, direct method, structural method, reading method, audiolingual method, and situational method. Vocabulary selection considers factors like frequency, teachability, similarity, availability, coverage, and defining power. Grammar selection examines simplicity, centrality, learnability based on acquisition order, and gradation approaches including linguistic distance, intrinsic difficulty, communicative need, and frequency. Early approaches to syllabus design made assumptions that units of language are vocabulary and
Aplied linguitic (learners strategies)
This document discusses developments in language learners' strategies. It covers defining learning strategies, classifying them, factors that influence strategy choice, relationships between strategies and language learning, and developments in strategy-based instruction. Key points include: learning strategies are techniques used by language learners to help acquisition and use; they have been classified into categories like cognitive, metacognitive, and social strategies; individual learner differences and task characteristics influence strategy use; and training learners in strategy use may help language development.
Materials For Writing In Efl
I made this presentation as part of a M.A. course entitled Material development in second/foreign language teaching, taught by professor Rubena St. Louis.
Goals and objectives
In this class we take a look at the process of designing goals and objectives for language courses. We also explore some of the alternatives to objectives such as competencies and standards
Total Physical Response and Suggestopedia
Total Physical Response (TPR) is a language teaching method developed by James Asher that is based on learning through physical activities. Students first develop physically and then produce language. The method aims to create a fun atmosphere to help students memorize and understand material better. It does not require spoken output in early stages and teachers wait for students to speak spontaneously once they acquire enough language through listening. Feedback is only given after students finish responding. Suggestopedia is a method developed by Georgi Lozanov that promises faster language learning through relaxation, soft seating, dim lighting, peripheral learning materials, Baroque music, error tolerance, limited homework, and integration of music and drama.
Multiple intelligence and English Language Teaching
The document discusses Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences and how technology can support the different intelligences. It describes the seven intelligences - linguistic, logical-mathematical, visual-spatial, bodily-kinesthetic, musical, interpersonal, and intrapersonal. Integrating multiple intelligences and technology in the classroom has positive effects such as motivating students and allowing them to learn in ways that align with their strengths. Reference materials are also provided.
BICS and CALP
Jim Cummins developed a theory distinguishing between basic interpersonal communication skills (BICS) and cognitive academic language proficiency (CALP). BICS refers to conversational language skills, which second language learners can develop within 2-5 years. In contrast, CALP involves more technical academic language skills and can take 4-7 years to develop, depending on various learner factors. Cummins also distinguished between context-embedded communication providing supports like gestures, and context-reduced communication providing fewer clues, as well as cognitively undemanding versus cognitively demanding types of communication.
Communicative Testing
This document provides an overview of communicative language testing. It begins with the historical perspective and debates around the nature of language. It then defines communicative testing as intended to assess a test-taker's ability to perform language tasks in specific contexts. It discusses types of communicative competence and principles of communicative language testing. Advantages include assessing integrated language skills in realistic tasks. Weaknesses include difficulty assessing grammar separate from communication and potential cultural bias. The document provides examples of communicative language test questions.
Evaluating ELT Materials; Adapting Materials; Technology in ELT
The document discusses evaluating and adapting ELT (English Language Teaching) materials. It provides guidance on both externally and internally evaluating materials based on factors such as intended audience, language presentation, skills coverage, and cultural sensitivity. The evaluation aims to determine material suitability and potential needed adaptations. Adaptation is described as modifying materials to better achieve objectives by addressing issues like insufficient grammar, unauthentic content, or inappropriate subject matter. Teachers are advised to balance adaptation with maintaining overall material structure to maximize congruence between the adapted materials and classroom needs.
Lambert’S Socio Psychological Model Shahida
Lambert's socio-psychological model from 1972 focuses on the social and psychological aspects of second language acquisition. The model identifies key factors that influence learning a second language: attitudes and orientations towards the language, aptitude for language learning, motivation to learn, level of proficiency gained, and impact on self-identity. Outcomes can be additive bilingualism, which enriches experience without harming the native language, or subtractive bilingualism, which can weaken development of the second language.
Planning goals and learning outcomes
The document discusses key concepts in curriculum planning such as determining goals and outcomes of a language program. It explains that early language teaching simply aimed to teach English, while ESP argued for determining the specific English required, proficiency level, and purpose. Needs and situation analyses seek to answer these questions. Goals should motivate learners and clarify the program. Objectives provide a more precise focus than aims and describe observable learning outcomes. The document also examines five curriculum ideologies that influence language teaching approaches and stresses defining aims and objectives clearly and ensuring they are consistent, precise, related to aims, and feasible within the program.
Language Assessment - Beyond Test-Alternatives Assessment by EFL Learners
The concept of assemble additional measures of students—portfolios, journals, observations, self-assessments, peer-assessments, and the like—in an effort to triangulate data about students.
Second language acquisition
The document discusses different approaches to research methodology, including qualitative, quantitative, and mixed methods approaches. It also discusses frameworks for designing research studies, including considering philosophical claims, strategies of inquiry, and research methods. Key frameworks and theories of second language acquisition are explained, such as Krashen's Monitor Model and hypotheses of language acquisition.
Lesson planning and elt
This document discusses lesson planning and provides guidance on developing effective lessons. It outlines the advantages of having a good lesson plan, including inspiring teacher improvement, helping with evaluation, and developing confidence. It then describes the key components of a lesson plan, such as objectives, anticipatory sets, direct instruction, guided and independent practice, materials, assessment, and reflection. The document also discusses principles for designing lessons focused on specific skills, like reading, speaking, vocabulary, grammar, and listening. These include introducing new vocabulary in context, providing opportunities for student speaking practice, and incorporating strategy training. Finally, it addresses learning styles and motivation.
Personality Factors In Sla
The document summarizes research on personality factors that affect second language acquisition. It discusses theories of self-esteem, attribution, willingness to communicate, anxiety, empathy, extroversion, motivation, and intrinsic motivation in the classroom. Various studies show that affective factors like self-confidence, risk-taking, and facilitating anxiety can have positive effects on language learning, while factors like inhibition and debilitating anxiety may impede success. Teachers are encouraged to consider students' personalities, build self-efficacy, and use motivating techniques to promote language development.
CLIL 3 Cognition

A.content based instruction (cbi)
Content-based instruction (CBI) uses content area subjects to teach language skills. Students can acquire content knowledge through comprehensible input which also increases their language abilities. CBI has advantages like making language learning more interesting and motivating while also teaching valuable study skills. However, disadvantages include potentially confusing learners about language learning and difficulties finding leveled texts.
Learning style ppt
This document discusses learning styles and how understanding your own learning style can help you learn more effectively. There are three main learning styles: visual, which involves seeing and reading; auditory, which involves listening and talking; and kinesthetic/tactile, which involves hands-on activities. The document provides examples of how each type prefers to learn and techniques to help with learning for each style, such as using pictures for visual learners or discussing material aloud for auditory learners. Understanding your dominant learning style can improve productivity, achievement, problem solving and learning overall.
Learning styles and strategies.
The document discusses sources of variation in second language learning, focusing on factors related to the language learner, including motivation, learning styles, strategies, and individual characteristics. It covers topics like integrative vs. instrumental motivation, the influence of culture and environment on language learning, and implications for adopting style-based and strategy-based instruction approaches to accommodate different learners.

It covers topics like integrative vs. instrumental motivation, the influence of culture and environment on language learning, and implications for adopting style-based and strategy-based instruction approaches to accommodate different learners.
Learning styles (power point)
The document discusses different learning styles, including the visual learning style. It describes the VAK model which categorizes learners as visual, auditory, or kinesthetic based on how they receive and process information. Visual learners tend to observe things like pictures, demonstrations, and films in order to improve their knowledge. They understand written instructions better than oral ones and use highlighting, color coding, mind maps and other visual techniques to memorize information.
What’s your learning style
This document discusses different learning styles based on a VARK quiz the author took. It indicates the author has both kinesthetic and visual learning styles. It provides information on characteristics and strategies for visual and kinesthetic learners. For visual learners, it notes they benefit from visual aids in lessons. For kinesthetic learners, it states they learn best through physical movement but find lectures difficult. The author reflects on managing their own kinesthetic learning style in college through fidgeting and finding active study techniques. It encourages understanding individual learning styles to make classes and studying easier.
Learning styles
This document discusses learning styles and the VARK model of learning preferences. It introduces the four categories in VARK: Visual, Aural, Read/Write, and Kinesthetic. It then provides a questionnaire to help determine a learner's preference, including examples like assembling furniture or setting up a phone. Based on the results, it describes each of the four learning styles in 1-2 sentences and provides suggestions for how learners with that preference can best take in information. The document concludes by asking if the reader agrees with their determined learning style preference.
Pre teaching activity - Learning styles
- There are three main cognitive learning styles: visual, auditory, and kinesthetic. Each individual processes and learns new information differently.
- Understanding your preferred learning style helps maximize studying effectiveness. Visual learners prefer using charts and pictures. Auditory learners learn best through listening and speaking. Kinesthetic learners are hands-on and like demonstrating concepts.
- The document provides information about the characteristics and preferences of each learning style to help identify your own preferred style for maximizing learning.
Auditory learning style
This document summarizes auditory learning styles. It defines auditory learners as those who learn best through listening. Key characteristics of auditory learners are that they remember what they hear well, enjoy discussions and speaking, and find it hard to work quietly for long periods. Strengths include good memory of spoken information and preference for discussions, while weaknesses include difficulty with silent work and distraction by noise. The document suggests activities to enhance auditory learning such as group work, reading aloud, storytelling and incorporating music. Specific activities proposed are oral reports, role plays, puppet shows and demonstrations.
Types Of Learning
There are three main types of learners: visual, auditory, and tactile/kinesthetic. Visual learners prefer using images and spatial understanding to learn. Auditory learners learn best through listening and speaking. Tactile/kinesthetic learners learn by experiencing things hands-on and acting things out. Students should understand their own learning style to maximize their learning potential and make lessons more engaging. Knowing whether you are a visual, auditory, or tactile learner can help you choose effective study strategies.

What Kind of Learner Are You?
Today’s students and teachers are always seeking the latest technologies available both for personal and school use. Technology can assist them in attaining the knowledge they desire and help make learning more interactive and tailored to different learning styles.
The three most common learning styles are visual, auditory and kinesthetic. Some
people listen more attentively to a lecture while others are more alert during a visual presentation. Meanwhile, others are busy taking notes or practicing the skill.
Knowing your learning style can be helpful for finding the right way to interact with colleagues and get the most out of meetings. What kind of learner are you?

Communication skills for teachers 1
1. The document discusses effective communication skills, including empathy skills like understanding different learning styles, non-verbal communication, and active listening.
2. It covers theories of multiple intelligences and learning styles, as well as Kolb's learning style types. Motivating students involves understanding their expectations, the value of tasks, and reducing barriers.
3. Effective communication involves both verbal and non-verbal elements. It is the responsibility of both the communicator and receiver to understand each other. Active listening skills like maintaining eye contact and paraphrasing are emphasized.
Differentiated instruction
1. The document provides an overview of differentiated instruction (DI), including definitions, key principles, and examples of how teachers can differentiate content, process, product, and learning environment based on students' readiness levels, interests, and learning profiles.
2. It discusses theories of multiple intelligences and learning styles/modalities that form the basis for DI, which is a way of thinking about and planning instruction that aims to address student differences.
3. Examples are given of how teachers can differentiate instruction across various subjects and intelligences like linguistic, logical-mathematical, visual-spatial, and kinesthetic. Flexible grouping, formative assessment, and creating an inclusive learning environment are also emphasized.
There Is No Can't: AAC, Literacy & Meeting Complex Needs
This document discusses strategies for teaching literacy to students with complex needs. It begins by describing traditional, reductionist approaches to literacy instruction and argues for an emergent literacy approach. Some key points made include:
- Literacy instruction should involve exposure to all aspects of literacy from an early age, not just isolated skills.
- Universal design for learning principles and differentiation can help make instruction accessible for diverse learners.
- Shared reading using strategies like C-A-R (comment, ask, respond) can promote language development.
- For conventional literacy, the four blocks framework including guided reading, working with words, writing, and self-selected reading supports a balanced approach.
Differentiation powerpoint

Individual differences in second language learning
The document discusses individual differences that can impact second language learning, including intelligence, aptitude, and learning styles. It describes research showing intelligence is related to certain language skills but not oral abilities. Aptitude tests measure the ability to learn sounds, grammar, and vocabulary. Learning styles, like field independence/dependence and Kolb's styles, influence how learners prefer to intake information. Educators hope understanding these differences can help all learners succeed.

Rti ell
This document discusses Response to Intervention (RTI) approaches for English learners. It notes that implementing RTI for culturally and linguistically diverse students requires understanding their backgrounds and needs. Tier 1 interventions involve classroom modifications and accommodations with documentation. Tier 2 adds further modifications and progress monitoring. Tier 3 provides intensive, small group instruction by highly trained teachers with weekly monitoring. Secondary English learners face challenges with academic literacy, but effective Tier 1 instruction incorporates socioculturally aware practices, rich texts, vocabulary instruction and differentiation. Organizing RTI with options like sheltered instruction observation protocol can help secondary English learners access grade-level content.
Teela,oct 18 22
Inhibition in language acquisition refers to the suppression of irrelevant languages when switching between languages. Inhibition affects second language acquisition by discouraging risk-taking necessary for language learning progress. Inhibition influences language learning negatively by causing learners to lose face, worry about mistakes, and feel afraid of attention. Teachers can make students more interested in language learning by explaining benefits, showing learning results, using art, having students practice the language, and giving rewards.
Universal Design for Learning: Differentiated Instruction
The document discusses using the six thinking hats technique developed by Edward de Bono as a model for learning styles. It describes how each of the six hats - white, red, black, yellow, green and blue - can represent a different learning style dimension. For example, the white hat is likened to logical learners, while the green hat represents creative learners. The document also provides examples of learning style models that aspects of the six hats can be mapped to. It proposes using the six hats framework to form balanced groups and get different perspectives in teaching.
Individual learner differences
This document discusses several individual learner differences that can impact second language acquisition, including anxiety, age, language aptitude, intelligence, learning styles, motivation, personality traits, and cognitive styles. Anxiety is related to self-esteem and risk-taking and can interfere with learning. Adults generally progress faster than children in grammar acquisition but not always in pronunciation. Language aptitude, intelligence, and cognitive styles like field dependence/independence can also influence L2 learning.

Vais pbl
The document discusses project-based learning (PBL) and compares traditional teaching methods to PBL. It notes that PBL engages students through hands-on exploration of real-world problems, allows students to investigate issues and topics through projects, and fosters abstract thinking. PBL uses authentic assessment, extends learning over time, and develops 21st century skills like collaboration. The roles of teachers and students shift, with teachers facilitating learning and students taking a more active role. PBL has roots in constructivist learning theories advocated by thinkers like Dewey, Piaget and Vygotsky.
What Gifted Students Need by Jeff Danielian
Education is about understanding, not merely the knowledge related to a specific discipline or parental /educational strategy, but an understanding of the immense variation of our children's and students’ social, emotional, and educational backgrounds, which demand individualized acceptance and consideration. The development of higher order thinking skills and problem solving techniques, creativity training, and autonomous learning should serve as the foundation for the emergent and realized potential of the children we raise and the students we teach. Learn more about the strategies, practices, tools and resources available to parents and educators, while recognizing that a focus on interest and learning style can provide a wealth of experience.
Differentiated instruction (2011)
The document discusses the need to differentiate instruction to meet the varied needs of students in modern classrooms. It notes that students learn at different rates, in different ways, and have different interests. Effective differentiation requires teachers to thoughtfully examine curriculum, instruction, and assessment and provide flexibility and options that engage all learners.
Child centered curr ppt.
The child-centered curriculum focuses on the child being at the center of the educational process. [1] It emerged from research showing children are capable learners who construct their own knowledge through exploration and discovery. [2] The curriculum is built around the child's interests, abilities, purposes, and needs rather than focusing on rote memorization. [3] Teachers facilitate learning through asking questions, observing children, and providing opportunities for them to explore concepts in their own way.
Theories of learning by dr sudhir sahu
The document discusses various definitions and theories of learning from different scholars over time. It defines learning as a relatively permanent change in behavior or knowledge that results from experience. It outlines several learning theories including behaviorism, which focuses on observable behaviors and conditioning; cognitivism, which views learning as the processing of information; social learning theory, which emphasizes learning through observation; and constructivism, which sees learning as an active process of constructing knowledge.
