    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisThis book provides a comprehensive, contextualized approach to curriculum creation, design, development, and evaluation for Intensive English Programs. The book starts by guiding the reader through the important but often overlooked steps of contextualizing their current or future language curriculum to give decision makers the full picture of what their curriculum is intended to accomplish. Subsequent chapters break down the popular ADDIE (Analyze, Design, Develop, Implement, and Evaluate) model of curricular design into meaningful units focused on learner and context analysis, learning outcomes, assessments, materials, and implementation and evaluation processes. Accessible and engaging chapters include a variety of prompts, activities, and summaries to support learning and implementation.With instruction on how to build a language curriculum from scratch and insights for changing or improving an existing curriculum, this book is a key resource for instructors and program aTrade Review"This is a very timely book. This book lays out the ADDIE process for curriculum construction and likens it to building a solid house in a very principled approach backed by solid examples and time-proven steps. It also recognizes and accounts for a variety of settings for the multi-faceted types of English for Specific Purposes that more and more IEPs have needed to adapt to. This book will be a great introduction to graduate students and an even better refresher for experienced language school administrators."--Gordon Clark, Director and Assistant Dean, Intensive English Language Institute, International Affairs, University of North Texas, USATable of Contents1.

  • Critical Pedagogies for Modern Languages

    Bloomsbury Publishing PLC Critical Pedagogies for Modern Languages

    5 in stock

    Book SynopsisIn the context of Black Lives Matter, decolonizing initiatives, #MeToo, climate emergency protests and other movements for social and environmental justice, this volume posits a simple question: how can modern languages be taught so that they challenge rather than reinforce social inequalities?Informed by interdisciplinary theories, Critical Pedagogies for Modern Language Education focuses on practical discussions of case studies in areas directly relevant to the classroom contexts of modern languages educators. The volume transforms modern language educators and the modern language profession by putting the politics of language teaching at the centre of its analysis. With case studies covering 11 languages (Modern Standard Arabic, Dutch, English, French, German, Levantine, Mandarin, Portuguese, Spanish, Swedish, Tamazight) across 13 countries and regions (Austria, Brazil, China, France, Italy, the Levant, Morocco, the Netherlands, Palestine, Spain, Sweden, the UK, and the USA)Trade ReviewThis edited volume urges us to engage with the liberatory and transformative potential of languages education and to actively reimagine our practice from critical, social justice and decolonizing perspectives. The carefully curated collection of chapters is underpinned by a diverse range of theoretical and conceptual frameworks as well as practical, polyphonic examples of classroom practice across sectors and geographical contexts. This compelling volume is essential reading for pre- and in-service language teachers and teacher trainers as well as researchers passionate about the enactment of critical language pedagogies. -- Adriana Díaz, Senior Lecturer in the School of Languages and Cultures, University of Queensland, AustraliaA forceful and passionate plea for incorporating politics into the language classroom. Fascinating case studies examine the teaching of 11 languages across 13 countries and discuss a range of current issues related to critical pedagogies and decolonization efforts in education. Should be of vital interest to any teacher of modern languages. -- Claire Kramsch, Emerita Professor of German and Affilate Professor of Education, University of California, Berkeley, USATable of ContentsIntroduction: What is Critical Modern Languages Education?

    Pavilion Publishing and Media Ltd The Creative Teacher's Compendium: An A-Z guide

    2 in stock

    Book SynopsisCreativity is an exciting concept in learning and teaching today, not least in the field of ELT, with numerous books, publications, conferences and websites dedicated to exploring ideas around the theme. The Creative Teacher's Compendium offers teachers an extensive repertoire of creative ideas and techniques to work with in the classroom, each one clearly linked to a language point with easy-to-follow teaching notes, and also to a section which provides further reflection and teacher development. The A-Z format provides a memorable and easily-referenced manual for teachers, with a large variety of low-preparation, practical teaching ideas. Through its clear links to specific language points and also to teacher reflection, The Creative Teacher's Compendium is significantly different in both its approach and content from other resource books on creative language teaching. Antonia and Alan do a lot of teacher training in various countries around the world, and regularly speak at conferences. The teachers we meet are forever asking us where they can get hold of all these lovely ideas, so they decided to put them in a book. The book provides an alphabetical list of chapters with topics related to creative language teaching, covering themes such as Art, Beginnings, Conversations, Dictation, Emotions, Film etc. Each chapter begins with a relevant quote related to the topic, followed by a short discussion of why this area is important for creative language teaching. This introduction provides a clear rationale and directs teachers to relevant research in the area. Then follow a series of creative activities which can be used as they are or easily adapted to suit teachers' and learners' needs. The creative activities are always clearly linked to suggested language points, and sample materials show how these can be explicitly exploited. The chapters end with ideas for reflective teacher development and tasks which can be used for workshops.
