We Taught Them About Reading Teaching But What Did They Learn? /slideshow/we-taught-them-about-reading-teaching-but-what-did-they-learn/3408667 tesolarabiawetaughtthemaboutreadingteachingbutwhatdidtheylearn-100312074930-phpapp01
There is an urgent need to invest in teacher education programmes in the Arab world. Outdated curricula and methodologies, reliance on rote learning and not enough qualified teachers present a threat to the quality of education in the region. This presentation outlines a qualitative case study that explores the perceived and observed impact of shaping and contextualizing teacher education reading pedagogy upon an evolving system of knowledge, beliefs and reading teaching styles in a UAE context. The findings suggest that by attending to a Vygotskian constructivist-based contextualized EFL model of second language teacher education pedagogy, the potential to enhance the capacity of Emirati female student teachers to teach reading successfully and enact pedagogic change in government schools is increased. While investigating the unique features of the case itself, these findings may have resonance for teacher education programmes in other Middle Eastern contexts.]]>

Speak, Listen, Laugh /slideshow/speak-listen-laugh/2337144 speaklistenlaugh-091024132136-phpapp02
Learning to speak and listen with confidence in a foreign language is the job of a lifetime. An integrated whole language approach promotes the development of speaking and listening as intimately connected, rather than individual mechanistic and separate activities (Andrews, R. 2001). Therefore, the contexts in which speaking and listening takes place are crucially important for its holistic development. ‘Speak, Listen, Laugh!’ will focus on five principle contexts for the acquisition of speaking and listening skills in an EFL context - talk and discussion, play and games, story, improvised drama and poetry. What better way is there to enhance children’s English abilities than through a variety of stimulating, interactive contexts?]]>
