Methodology:

Attendance and active student participation is essential in every phase of this course. Readings from the main course books are assigned for each week. You are required to come to the classes having read the assigned material. Each class session, you should come prepared with written notes on every assigned reading. You may note anything of interest to you, but be sure to address the following questions: (1) What are the important points made? (2) What critique can you make of approach, method, and content? (3) What applications or implications do you see for teaching?

Every week a couple of your classmates will present one aspect of language pedagogy. Each group should present the important points made in the assigned material and provide examples for classroom tasks and activities in relation with the readings. For example, a group presenting “oral practice” should mention not only all potential techniques that can be employed to provide students oral practice in different areas of language, but also present samples of oral practice tasks and activities. The presenters will act as the teachers and the class will act as the English language learners where necessary. Each person presenting should prepare for a 10 minute presentation.

On the day of his/her presentation, every presenter will come to class with a set of 4 questions: one discussion, one multiple choice, one fill-in-the blanks, and one true-false question based on the readings supposed to be covered. An answer key should also be provided with the questions. Secondly, each presenter is required to turn in a summary of the readings s/he was supposed to have done. It is important that you turn in the questions and the summary report at the beginning of the class.

To be able to participate actively in the presentations, it is very important that you read the assigned chapters before each class. The presenters should not merely lecture and present info but should foster interaction and discussion in class. To do so, presenters should prepare a number of key questions, which they will pose during or after their presentations.
