Book Description
Seminar paper from the year 2015 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Linguistics, grade: 1,3, University of Cologne, language: English, abstract: Nowadays foreign language teaching has become established in the majority of primary schools. The introduction of foreign language teaching in primary schools leads to an improvement of linguistic and communicative competency. Due to the fact that pupils begin to learn English in grade one they automatically extend their learning time and they also start to learn the language in the most opportune moment in their life. Even shy pupils realize that they already know some English words, which they got to know from different kinds of advertising in radio, television or the internet. Another point is that it is possible to communicate in English without knowing much words or structures. As a result, the pupils’ motivation to learn the language retains. As a teacher it is important to know which expectations you can have on your pupils and which accomplishments this young learners are able to achieve. Teachers should also be aware of the fact that children will always acquire new language input in a defined order. First they hear new input through listening. Then they attempt to repeat the new input through speaking. Through reading the children will see the written form of the new input and in the last step the children would write the new word themselves (cf. Clausen, 2009, p.8). So listening is a basic skill which is a foundation for any other skill like speaking, reading and writing. According to that this term paper focuses on how to teach listening. Its main purpose is to provide information about theoretical and practical approaches, especially with emphasis on the listening skill in primary school. Moreover it gives an insight into appropriate behaviour of teachers and of different methods a teacher can use to improve children’s listening skills.

The Skill Approach in Education
Author: Mehmet Serdar Erciş
Publisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 152751546X
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 521
Book Description
Today, information and technological developments grow at a rapid pace. Social and political life becomes more and more complicated and, in this process, active citizenship becomes more essential. Knowledge-driven changes in society and economies require individuals to quickly acquire new skills. Otherwise, it is increasingly difficult for employees to adapt to business life and to find a job. Education has to take account of these circumstances, adapt to the rapid developments in the world and educate individuals to continue lifelong learning. For this, skills such as active and independent learning, assertiveness, creativity, self-improvement, lifelong learning are important. Skill teaching differs from knowledge teaching. Skill is the transfer of knowledge to practice. This process involves a learning process that requires the steps of researching, planning, controlling and correcting. The knowledge should be organized, integrated, transferred into practice, mental and physical resources should be activated, and knowledge use should be demonstrated in practice in order to improve the skill. This book contributes to the teaching of skills and includes basic concepts and skills, language skills, science and mathematics skills, psycho-social skills and visual arts skills. It also explains how to teach skills, how to prepare for activities and how to implement activities in educational settings. These applications are intended to draw attention to skill teaching, to raise educators, to increase the success of education, to improve the skills of students, and to enable them to use the skills they have learned in school outside of school and in complex tasks.

The pedagogical model─a combination of the tried-and-tested sequence of listening lessons and activities that show learners how to activate processes of skilled listeners ─ provides teachers with a sound framework for students’ L2 listening development to take place inside and outside the classroom. The text includes many practical ideas for listening tasks that have been used successfully in various language learning contexts.
