Observation in the Language Classroom
Author: Dick Allwright
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317869273
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 305
Book Description
This book provides an account of classroom observation in a historical and educational perspective. Drawing on extracts from classic studies in this field, Dick Allwright reviews the development of research and experiment since the 1970's. The book thus not only provides a background to recent research, but also identifies areas for future development. Stress is laid on the link to be made between practice and research and it is argued that policy-making. either at classroom or institutional level, is heavily dependent on descriptive accounts of classroom reality.

Exploring Sociocultural Dimensions of Teacher-student Interaction in an ESL Classroom
Author: Sayaka Yamazaki Neal
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 61
Book Description
Census data indicate that the number of non-English speaking immigrants in the United States is increasing rapidly each year. For most of these immigrants, learning English is the most important first step in order to be able to compete for higher skilled, higher paying jobs. English competency is also essential for them to become members of the new society since they also learn sociocultural knowledge, such as norms and values of the new society, through learning the new language. This process makes language a powerful medium for socialization through a process called language socialization. This thesis investigates the language socialization for non-English speaking adult immigrant students based on data collected within one ESL classroom. Close examination of interaction in this ESL classroom reveals that issues closely related to language socialization such as identity, ideology, and power relations are created through interaction between the teacher and students. The data thus suggest that sociocultural aspects of language teaching must be considered in order to provide quality education to the growing population of non-English speaking immigrants in the U.S., especially in light of their increasing demand for ESL classes and teachers.

Second-language Classroom Interaction
Author: Ann C. Wintergerst
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Foreign Language Study
Languages : en
Pages : 184
Book Description
"This book analyzes teacher and student interaction in the context of twelve ESL lessons, with the purpose of exploring the extent of student language output. Research has confirmed that teacher speech dominates the second-language classroom. Not surprisingly, 'teacher talk' has been investigated in numerous studies, but 'student talk' has been largely overlooked: this study addresses that imbalance. Questions are one means of engaging student attention, promoting verbal responses, and evaluating student progress. They facilitate interaction by establishing the topic, the speaker, and the respondent. However, as the author shows, some teacher questions encourage communication while others inhibit it." "In this analysis of teacher and student questions and answers, Professor Wintergerst offers new perspective on second-language development and classroom learning in general."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Classroom Interaction and Its Influence on The...Speaking Skills

Book Description
As the result of this reserch confirms, the teacher's much control over the lesson (classroom interaction) was found to be less likely to promote interaction and to facilitate the construction of learning opportunities. So, in Ethiopia where English is used as medium of instruction, (English Langauge) teachers should use 'teacher -student and Student-student interaction' in the EFL classroom.Many scholars say classroom interaction, if the activities chosen are on the basis of suitability in terms of language and their (students) age and interest, help learners develop their speaking skills.
