Abstract:

Today, a countless number of untrained and volunteer English as a second or foreign language teachers are working throughout the world to help meet the rising need for English teachers. Many of these volunteers have little or no training in teaching English. However, Basic Training and Resources for Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (BTRTESOL) is a book and website that can be used as both a teacher-training program and a self-learning resource to help prepare these volunteer teachers. The idea for this program started with Dr. Lynn Henrichsen, who later invited a team of graduat

Abstract:

Research indicates that assessment systems dictate classroom practices, although assessment systems do not always have a positive impact on classroom behaviours. The focus of the present study was to explore Bangladesh secondary English teachers’ understandings about listening and speaking skills assessment as well as to learn the barriers and enablers they encounter in assessing those two skills. The study showed that the Bangladesh secondary English curriculum does not include the assessment of listening and speaking skills, although the curriculum document gives a mandate to teachers to pra

The present research examined the coordination of speech production and speech comprehension. Whilst conversing with others we must coordinate the planning of our own speech output with the comprehension of our speech partner(s)’s utterances. However, very little is known about the coordination. Through examining participants’ speech and eye-movements, this research questioned how people manage to coordinate their speaking and listening in dialogue.

Abstract:

Speaking is “the process of building and sharing meaning through the use of verbal and non-verbal symbols, in a variety of contexts” (Chaney, 1998, p.13). Speaking is a crucial part of second language learning and teaching. Today’s world requires that the goal of teaching speaking should improve students’ communicative skills, because, only in this way, students can express themselves and learn how to follow the social and cultural rules appropriate in each communicative circumstance. Now many linguists and ESL teachers agree that students learn to speak in the second language by “interacti

Results demonstrated the musician group had an advantage in spatial listening and auditory memory. These findings suggest an early emergence of listening benefits and also support musical training as a rehabilitative strategy to ameliorate specific auditory processing deficits.
