facilitate classroom interaction

facilitate classroom interaction

Project description
b) Assignment Part B: 4,000 Words
Using the same material that you used in part (a), critically analyze the course-book material in relation to ONE of the following themes:

(1) Classroom Interaction: In what ways does the material facilitate classroom interaction? What kind of interaction could be facilitated or could not be facilitated by the material? Why do you think that the content of the material has been chosen to carry out these activities?

(2) Globalization: How is a world view of English portrayed through the material? How are issues of culture and linguistic imperialism carried through or countered in the material? What do you think are some of the positive or negative consequences of using this material?

(3) Assessment: Are there links between the course-book material and the format/content of international examinations? What effects do you think this might have on the approach to teaching adopted by a teacher? How is language learning assessed through the material?

Poster – on March 10 and 24 there will be poster presentations. Each person will create a dummy student book page for a course book or a page illustrating someone who is pluralingual.

Your critical analysis of the course-book material will be supported by close reference to the literature of the theme you have chosen. Any claims made about good practice or appropriate teaching methods should be related to the literature.

Successful completion of the above assignments will entail:
? Critical analysis and interpretation of hand-out materials, recommended reading and other relevant literature (as appropriate);
? Evidence from the context(s) you have selected in the form of a description of classroom practice or procedures;
? Analysis and interpretation of data generated;
? Reflection and introspection on (a) the teaching and learning process, (b) your own professional development.
