Discussion
The methods and models are not just those that we, the authors, practice or recom mend. In fact, we have tried to list as many strategies and models or orietations as possible in the hope that readers will be able to evaluate and discover which methods and models will work best for their particular teaching situations.In fact, there may be meth ods and models that we have not included, although we have tried our best to cover as much ter ri tory as possible. No methods, strategies, models, or orientations have been pur posely left out. You may also no tice that some of the meth ods/strategies and mod els / orientations may not be in cur rent fashion. In an at tempt to be inclu sive we have in corporated these, but with comments re garding what we see as their inherent caveats.
* Suggestions for Using the Text
This is followed by the general straegy frequently used to teach and / or prepare curriculum using this method or model. In anattempt to make the strategy easily accessible we have presented the strategy in steps.
Never the less, it is possible that in dif ferent situations cer tain steps might be eliminated or other steps added. In or der to help readers conceptualize the method or orientation we have in cluded some exam ples and applications. Again readers should be aware that these examples may not always be appropriate as is for their particular situation.
But we would hope such exam ples would give readers the guidance needed to develop their own applications.Although our goal is to presentare source of methods and models with objectiv ity and limited bias, we never the less feel it necessary to present caveats regard ing the methods and models as we see them. In addition, we want readers to be aware that all methods and mod els may be in ap pro pri ate in cer tain situations, and thus, we have made comments in the “Weakness / Modifications” section regarding limitations of the methods and orientations as well as modifications that can be made in different situations.
In the process of accu mu lating these methods and orientations we have discovered that many of them overlap, and are def initely not en ti ties in and of them selves. Thus, we have in cluded a “See also” section that lists other methods which are com patible. At the end of each method and orientation we have in cluded a list of mate rials in which readers may find more information regarding the method or model. Some of these materials give the theoret ical and developmental back ground regarding the method or model. Oth ers are col lec tions of mod els for les sons and other applications. The lists are by no means exhaustive. The materials listed were chosen to give readers initial entry into the method or model presented.
* What Is ESL?
The acronym ESL stands for Eng lish as a second language. In the United States, ESLrefers to the teaching of those students for whom English is not a first language. In fact, a num ber of other terms are used to de scribe ESL. You may see the term ESOL (Engllish for students of other languages). The ac ro nym TESOL re fers to “teach ing Eng lish to stu dents of other languages.
” TESOL is also the name of the professional international organization of teachers of TESOL. You may also see other terms such as ELL (English language learning) and ELD (English language develop ment) used to describe students and programs that serve students who are learning English as a second language. You may also see the term LEP (limited English proficiency) to describe ESL students. However, most ESL practitioners dislike this term because they do not feel that ESL students are limited.You may also see the term EFL, which stands for English as foreign language. Generally, EFL is used to describe English teaching that occurs in places where English is not the native lan guage, and ESL is used to describe English teaching that occurs in places like the United States etc,
* What’s the Difference between an Approach a Method, and a Technique?
In general an approach is viewed as an over all the ory about learning language, which then lends it self to “approach ing” language teaching and learning in a certain manner. A method is of ten viewed as a se ries of procedures or ac tivities used to teach language in a certain way. A technique is usually seen as one ac tiv ity or pro ce dure used within a plan for teach ing. The re al ity is, how ever, that lan guage teach ing pro fes sion als of ten find them selves in disagree ment over these terms.
Depending on how one is defining the term and the circum stances in which the term is be ing used, an approach may be come a method or a method may be come a tech nique. For this reason, we have decided to use ap proaches to describe all the ways of lan guage teaching we present in our book. After our readers are introduced to these var ious approaches, they may de cide for them selves how they wish to categorize them and how they fit into their syllabus.
- Historical Approaches
The au dio-lin gual method (ALM) was de vel oped dur ing World War II in re ac tion to ap proaches that did not ad e quately de velop speak ing skills. ALM was strongly in flu enced by ideas from be hav ioral psychol ogy that led to the be lief that lan guage was a sys tem of hab its that could be taught by re in forc ing cor rect re sponses and pun ish ing in cor rect re sponses.
Strategy
- The teacher orally pres ents a phrase to the stu dents.
- Students are then asked to re peat the phrase quickly.
- The teacher modifies the phrase by changing a word in the phrase.
2.Solo Approaches
(Community Language Learning)
The psychologist Charles Curran developed community language learn ing (Counsl ing-Learning in Second Languages, 1976). Curran believed that students were of ten in hibited in learning a second language. In his method, teachers are viewed more as counselors and are expected to facilitate language learning as opposed to teaching it. He believed that creat ing a humanistic learning community would lower students’ defenses and encourage open communication,
Strategy
- The teacher translates the statement or question into the language being learned.
- The student repeats what the teacher said.
- The new phrase is recorded on a tape recorder.
- The procedure is repeated with other students until a short conversa tion is recorded.
3.Communicative Approaches
Communicative Language Learning
Communicative language teaching (CLT) was developed in the 1960s from the research and writings of applied lin guists in both Europe and North Amer ica who emphasized that language equaled communication (Canale & Swain, 1980; Savignon, 1983; van Ek, 1975). the goal of language teaching should not be translat ing and learn ing a set of rules but should be based on the goal of communicative competence.Communica tive com petence is most frequently defined as the ability to create mean ing when in teracting with others in the target language.
Strategy
Be cause CLT is such a broad orien tation, it is difficult to give specific strategies. However, the broad guide lines are as follows:
- Determine the communicative goals of the students.
- Create situations and activi ties in which students produce authentic, meaningful, and contextualized communication.
- Focus on accu racy only in as much as errors that would impede com munication are cor rected.
4.Language Arts Ap proaches
Language Experience Approach
Originally developed to teach read ing and writ ing to preliterate mono lingual students, this approach was later used to teach literacy skills to adults, including those learning English as an additional language. because students are using subject matter familiar to them, the information will be relevant to their needs.
Strategy
- The stu dent tells a story, usu ally based on a real-life ex pe ri ence, to the teacher.
- After the student is comfortable reading the story, individ ual words, grammar points, and so on may be studied.
5. Academic and Professional Approaches
Cognitive Academic Language Learning Approach
The cognitive academic language learning approach (CALLA) is a three-pronged approach focusing equally on academic lan guage learning, academic content learning, and learning strategy in struction. Lessons built around academic content in clude various exercises that focus on lan guage skills, study skills, and con tent specific concepts. whole language, process writ ing, cooperative learning, and cognitive in struction. Although this approach began as a Secondary level approach, its use has been expanded to other levels.
Strategy
A CALLA les son is built around the fol low ing five steps:
- Preparation students back ground knowledge and schemata about the content being studid as well as their learning strategies are explored.
- Presentation the teacher presents the necessary new content and learning skills needed for the lesson
- Practice students perform various activities to reinforce the material to be learned.
Conclusion, Implication, and Suggestion
Conclusion
In this book disscusion how we to learn,and how to teach techinques to speak english to students besides tgis the book is about strategy and example in teaching
Suggestion
Some suggestions are listed as follows, bringing the end of the article.
Acknowledgement
My appreciation and gratitude are addressed to my lecturer Linguistics II, Universitas Kristen Indonesia (UKI) for the financial support.I mean my purpose want to learn how to teach the right strategy to the studens in speaking the language properly and able to master it in everyday life in addition,I also want to improve my value can be better again.
strength
this book discusses the theory along with the explanation is also explained about the examples that exist in it, so that where everyone who read it is very easy to understand, this book is also used for all the general public either for teachers or for students so that we as teachers can be applied properly
weakness
This book is very difficult to understand because the language used is too difficult, other than that too many theories, so readers are very difficult to understand
