Spoken Communication Skills Presentation Transcript

Slide 1 - Spoken Communication Skills Developing Listening and Speaking Skills
Slide 2 - Communication What should be the main goal of an English language cousre? To focus on developing students’ mastery of the the language form OR To focus on developing students’ ability to effectively communicate for study, work or leisure
Slide 3 - Features of using language for communication We communicate because we want to or need to, NOT just to practise the language Focus is on what we are communicating NOT on how we are communicating (ideas vs. language) The language that is used is VARİED in grammar and vocabulary, NOT made of a single structure or a few structures and NOT normally repeated over and over again
Slide 4 - Communication in the Classroom If you want to encourage real communication in the classroom you need to Establish English as the main classroom language Try to use interesting topics and stimulating activities, which take the learners’ minds off the language Real life events ( weather, the students’ cloths, their health and mood, pictures and realia brought to class) Events in the world outside ( new films, a circus in town, national sports victory, the students’ families, etc.)
Slide 5 - Focus on fluency vs. accuracy Support and encourage listeners in their efforts to communicate their ideas Don’t try to control what they say Don’t interrupt learners everytime they make a language mistake to correct them.
Slide 6 - Listening Skills Listening is not a ‘passive” skill but a “receptive” skill. It requires as much attention and mental activity as speaking. That of the time an individual is engaged in communication, approximately 9 per cent is devoted to writing, 16 per cent to reading, 30 per cent to speaking, and 45 per cent to listening.
Slide 7 - Debates concerning the development of listening skills Debates focusing on the nature of listening input Whether or not listening should be made comprehensible for learners through simplification? Debates focusing on the role of listening in the early ELT curriculum Whether teachers should stress the importance of learners haing a “silent period” in the early stages of learning and wait for “readiness” to produce the language
Slide 8 - Debates concerning the development of listening skills Debates on the role of listening for comprehension and development of oracy (the ability to understand and participate in spoken communication) How can classroom practice rehearse the kinds of listening purposes and situations that learners will experience outside the classroom? How can we help learners build confidence in dealing with authentic spoken English? What kind of classroom procedures will develop listening ability?
Slide 9 - What do we know about the listening process? There are two types of listening processes Bottom-up process Top-down process Bottom-up: We use our knowledge of language and our ability to process acoustic signals to make sense of the sounds that speech presents to us Top-down We infer meaning from contextual clues and from making links between the spoken message and various types of prior knowledge which we hold.
Slide 10 - What learners need to be able to do in order to listen effectively Bottom-up processes Retain input while it is being processed Recognize word divisions Recognize key words in utterances Recognize key transitions in a discourse Another interesting development was… One of theproblems was.. / In contrast… Recognize grammatical relations between key elements in sentences Recognize the function of word stress in sentences Recognize the function of intonation in sentences
Slide 11 - What learners need to be able to do in order to listen effectively Top-down processes Use key words to construct the schema of discourse Infer the role of the participants in a situation Infer the topic of a discourse Infer the outcome of an event Infer the cause and effect of an event Infer unstated details of a situation Infer the sequence of a series of events Infer comparisons Distinguish between facts and opinions
Slide 12 - Types of Listening Participatory Listening Interactional (for the purpose of engaging in social rituals) Transactional (for the purpose exchanging information) İdentification of specific details Non-Participatory Listening to live conversations without taking part Listening to announcements to extract info. Listening to or watching films, plays, radio and songs where purpose is enjoyment Following instructions in orderto carry out a talk efficiently Attending a lecture or following a lesson Liistening someon egive a public address
Slide 13 - What are the implications for the English Language Classroom? Creating reasons for listening (motivate students) Teachers need to ensure that learners experience a range of listening purposes, especially those that might be immediately relevant to their lives outside the classroom. What purpose might there be for listening to this particular text? Is thatpurpose similar to the purpose a listener might have in real life? Does the task given to the learner encourage that listening purpose?
Slide 14 - Which is more authentic? Asking learners to listen to a short airport announcement to obtain information about a particular flight, as a passenger ? OR Asking learners to listen for the details of four different flights ? Skills that are practised Listening for key words Picking out relevant information Retaining significant details
Slide 15 - Designing listening activities for the classroom The standard procedure used for listening activities are Pre-listening stage While-Listening stage Post-listening stage
Slide 16 - Pre-Listening stage The purpose of the pre-listening stage is to Prepare the learners for what they are going to hear by activating existing prior knowledge introducing necessary schematic knowledge Introducing the language which students will encounter Objectives Contextualize the text Provide any information to help learners appreciate the setting and the role relationships between particiapnts
Slide 17 - Activity types for the pre-listening stage Predicting content from the title of a talk Talking about a picture which relates to the text Discuss relevant experiences Discussing the topic Answering a set of questions about the topic Agreeing or disagreeing with opinions about the topic Associate vocabulary about the yopic Predict info. about the topic Write questions about the topic
Slide 18 - While-Listening Stage Purpose of While-listening stage is TO HELP learners understand the text While learners listen they need to be involved in an authentic purpose for listening and encouraged to attend to the text more intensively
Slide 19 - While-Listening activities Ticking multiple-choice items Filling in a chart Complete a table, map or picture Matching pictures with the text Making notes Answer questions Complete sentences
Slide 20 - Post-Listening Activities The purpose of post-listening activities is to help learbners connect what they have heard with their own ideas and experienxe. Helps learners to move easily from listening to another skill.
Slide 21 - Post-listening Activities Give opinions Relate similar experiences Role-play a similar interaction Write a brief report Write a similar text Debate the topic
