![Page 9: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Write a brief statement outlining your own
assessment of yourself as a teacher (or future
teacher).
• Which kind of teacher do you feel you most
resemble?
• Wich would you most like to be?
![Page 10: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
• Wich of the factors that help effective learning
do you think are already present in you?
• Wich are not?
• Wich would you like to work on?
![Page 11: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Write two or more options for each of the following situations:
a. A student says I don’t want to do this exercise.
b. You expected an activity to take five minutes.
It has taken twenty so far and the students still
seem to be very involved. There is something
else you would like to do before the lesson
ends in ten minutes.
![Page 12: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
c. The next activity involves students working in groups of
five. At the moment all the desks (which take two
people) are facing forward in rows. They are movable,
but it takes a few minutes of chaos to do it.
d. The students are working in groups of three. Two
groups have finished the task you set them and are
now sitting looking bored. The other groups still seem
to have a long way to go before they finish.
![Page 13: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Here are a few possible options:
• You could say Fine.
• You could say loudly Do it!
• You could ask why the student doesn’t want to do it.
![Page 14: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
• You could offer an alternative exercise or
activity.
• You could say Choose something you’d like to
do.
• You could explain the point of the exercise.
• You could ask other stidnts for their opinion.
![Page 15: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
• What is the aim of this activity?
• What is the objective of the whole lesson?
• Is what we are doing useful?
• What is hindering the effectiveness of what
we are doing?
![Page 16: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
• What have I planned to do?
• What would be the best thing to do now?
• Is it time for a change of mood or pace?
• Are we using time efficiently?
![Page 17: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
• How do the students feel?
• How do I feel?
• What are the possible outcomes of my doing
something?

Maximizing student interaction in class: some ideas
• Remember the characteristics suggested by Carl Rogers for creating an effective learning environment. Be as honestly yourself as you can be. Respect the learners. Work on seeing things from their perspective as well as your own.
• Encourage a friendly, relaxed learning environment. If there is a trusting , positive, supportive rapport amongst the learners and teacher, then there is a much better chance of useful interaction happening.
![Page 21: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
• Ask questions rather than giving explanations.
• When you want students to discuss something ask ‘open’
questions (eg where, what, who, why, how, when
questions that require a longer answer) rather than
‘closed’ questions (eg verb-subject questions that require
nothing more than yes or no). For example, instead of ‘Is
noise pollution a bad thing?’ (answer = yes or no) you
could ask ‘What do you think about noise pollution?’
![Page 22: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
• Allow time for students to listen, think, process
their answer and speak.
• Really listen to what they say. Let what they
say really affect what you do next. Work on
listening to the person, and the meaning, as
well as to the language and the mistakes.
• Allow thinking time without talking over it.
Allow silence.
![Page 23: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
• Increase opportunities for STT (Student Talking Time).
• Use gestures to replace unnecessary teacher talk.
• Allow students to finish their own sentences
• Make use of pair an small groups to maximize
opportunities for students to speak.
![Page 24: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
• If possible, arrange seating so that students can
all see each other and talk to each other (ie
circles, squares and horseshoes rather than
parallel rows).
• Remember that the teacher doesn’t always need
to be at the front of the class. Try out seating
arrangements that allow the whole class to be
the focus (eg teacher takes one seat in the circle).
![Page 25: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
• Encourage interaction between students rather
than only between student and teacher and
teacher and student. Get students to ask
questions, give explanations, etc to each other
rather than always to you. Use gestures and
facial expressions to encourage them to speak
and listen to each other.
![Page 26: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
• Encourage co-operation rather than competition.
In many activities (probably not in a test or exam)
you may to encourage students to copy ideas from
others, or ‘cheat’. Although ,uch of our own
educational experience may suggest that this kind
of co-operation is to be discouraged, it seems to
me to be useful and positive – we learn from ohters
and from working through our own mistakes.
![Page 27: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
• If this is true, then it means that the teacher
can concentrate more on the process of
learning than simply on a plunge towards the
‘right answers’. The result of a learning
exercise becomes less important than the
getting there.
![Page 28: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
• Allow students to become more responsible for their
own progress. Put them in situations where they need
to make decisions for themselves.
• If a student is speaking to quietly for you to hear, walk
further away, rather than closer to them! (This sounds
illogical – but if you can’t hear them, then it’s likely that
the other students can’t either. Encourage the quiet
speaker to speak louder so that the others can hear.)
![Page 29: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Language skillsThere are four skills: listening, reading, writing.Listening and reading are called ‘receptive skills’(the reader or listener receives information butdoes not produce it); speaking and writing, onthe other hand, are the ‘productive skills’.
![Page 30: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Every activity is likely to involve some work on
Both language systems and skills, though, usually,
the objective is directed more to one area than
the other. In the following, classify each activity
as ‘ mainly skills’ or ‘mainly systems’. Then
decide which skills or which language systems
are being worked on.
![Page 31: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
a. The teacher writes a grammar exercise on
the board which learners copy and then do.
b. Learners read a newspaper article and then
discuss the story with ach other.
c. Learners underline all past simple verb forms
in a newspaper article.
![Page 32: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
d. Learners chat with their teacher about the
weekend
e. Learners write an imaginary postcard to a
friend, which the teacher then corrects.
f. Learners write a postcard to a friend, which
is posted uncorrected.
![Page 33: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
g. The teacher uses pictures to teach ten words
connected with TV.
h. The teacher says What tenses do these people
use? Learners then listen to a taped
conversation.
i. The teacher says Where are these people?
Learners then listen to a taped conversation.
![Page 34: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
1. Restricted use activities. These are activities
where the language available to the learners
is in some way restricted – as, for example,
when the learners are doing an exercise on
one verb tense or reading a coursebook text
specifically designed to include six examples
of a particular language item.
![Page 35: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
2. Authentic use activities. This is the opposite
of restricted use, there being no restriction
on the language – for example, in a free
discussion or in reading an English
newspaper.
![Page 36: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
3. Clarification and focus. This is the part of a
lesson where learners become clearerabout a
language item and come to understand its
meaning, form and use better, for example
thtough teacher explanation or guided
discovery.
![Page 37: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Here is a short random list of some other activities often used
in EFL classrooms (out of thousands of possible activities) :
• Learners do a grammar exercise individually
then compare answers with each other;
• Learners listen to a taped conversation in
order to answer some questions;
![Page 38: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
• Learners write a formal letter;
• Learners discuss and write some questions in
order to make a questionnaire;
• Learners read a newspaper article to prepare
for a discussion;
![Page 39: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
• Learners play a vocabulary game;
• Learners repeat sentences their teacher is
saying;
• Learners roleplay a shop scene.

Conclusions
Coursebooks are written:
• To give less experienced teachers support and
guidance and the control of a wellorganized
syllabus;
• To give more experienced teachers material to
work from.
![Page 43: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Using a coursebook as a resource:
• Select
You don’t need to do everything . Choose what
is appropriate for you and your students.
• Reject
If it’s not appropiate – leave it out.
![Page 44: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
• Teach
remember that the book is no substitute for
your own teaching. The book is a resource to
help and inform your work; it doesn’t do the
teaching for you. What you bring to it is the
human element – you know and work with your
students; they know you.
![Page 45: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
• Exploit
You don’t need to plod step by step through page after
page. Find interesting ways to adapt or exploit the
material. Devise variations on activities that give your
students the practice that they need. For example, try
doing things in a different order. Give different
instructions to the ones printed on the page.
![Page 46: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
• Supplement
Use teacher’s ‘recipe’ books, magazine pictures
and articles, your own ideas, board games,
real objects, projects, tape and video
recordings, etc.
![Page 47: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
• How many separate activities will there be?
• Where will I stand or sit?
• What do learners need?
• What skills will learners be working on?
![Page 48: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
• How will I control timing?
• What are some of the things that could cause
difficulties or go wrong?
• How am I going to deal with mistakes?
![Page 49: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
• Is there going to be variety of activity in the lesson?
• How do the lesson objectives fit in with longer-term
goals?
• What do they know already?
![Page 50: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
PLANNING
LEARNERS:What do they like
doing?What topics
interest them
AIMS:What are the aims
of the lesson?What are the aims of each activity?TEACHING POINT:
What items of language will be
studied or used in the lesson?
What topics, contexts will be
used?Am I confident
about these teaching points?
What preparation/study do I need to do?
TEACHING PROCEDURES:What activities
will help the learners achieve
the lesson objectives?
How will the activities link
together to make a whole lesson?
How long will each activity last?
MATERIAL:What materials will be used for each activity?
What do I need to make, photocopy,
borrow?What page of the coursebook have
we got to?What can be used
for homework?
CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT:
How will the chairs be
arranged?What instructions
will I give?What happens if
they don’t understand my instructions?
How long is the whole lesson?
![Page 51: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
On a day-to-day basis, teachers have a variety of
reasons for their selection of lesson content:
It’s the language features in the next coursebook
unit.
The main class teacher asked me to do it.
I understand this bit of grammar myself!
![Page 52: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
I think it will be usefull for them.
This is appropiate for their level.
A student has asked me about it.
I always teach this item at this point in thecourse.
![Page 53: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
I don’t want to work on the language item the
book has next.
I’ve noticed that the students seem to need this
structure.
I like teaching this language item.
![Page 54: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
We negotiated and agreed that we would study
this one.
I think they might enjoy my lesson about this.
They have problems with this.
I’m following a syllabus.
![Page 55: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
a. Repeating sentences that the teacher says ;
b. Doing oral grammar drills;
c. Reading aloud from the coursebook;
d. Giving a prepared speech;
e. Acting out a scripted conversation
![Page 56: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
f. Giving instructions so that someone can use a
new machine;
g. Improvising a conversation so that it includes
lots of examples of a new grammar structure;
h. One learner describes a picture in the textbook
while the other students look at it.
![Page 57: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
To summarize the teacher’s arguments:
• There are times in class when a focus on accuracy (and
therefore a greater use of instant correction) is appropriate.
• There are other times when the focus is on fluency. At these
times instant correction is less appropriate and could
interfere with the aims of the activity.
• The teacher needs to be clear about whether her main aim is
accuracy or fluency, and adapt her role in class appropriately.
![Page 58: Learning teaching, J. Scrivener](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061423/587f3f5a1a28ab43318b542f/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
The role of vocabulary in the classroom: five initial conclusions:
• Vocabulary is very important and needs to be dealt
with systematically in its own right; it is not simply
