Teaching Language: From Grammar to Grammaring
Жанр: Heinle/Cengage Learn Страниц: 180 Дата загрузки: 16 марта 20092003-10-30
|
|
«A must-read for every language teaching professional, «Teaching Language: From Grammar to Grammaring» explores the regular, predictable elements of language as well as the potential creativity of its underlying system. By combining a wide range of viewpoints with her own personal experiences and studies, Diane Larsen-Freeman challenges the static descriptive ideas of grammar, based on rules, and promotes the more fluid and dynamic notions of reason-driven grammaring, which she defines as «the ability to use grammar structures accurately, meaningfully, and appropriately». The reader is left not with an encyclopedic set of definitions, but rather with a deeper understanding of the organic nature of language and its acquisition, and a honed set of tools with which to approach language in language teaching.»

Film in Action: Teaching Language Using Moving Images
Жанр: Heinle/Cengage Learn Страниц: 696 Дата загрузки: 09 февраля 20092002-12-20
|
|
From the multi-award-winning Delta Teacher Development Series Film in Action convincingly places the moving image at the centre of the 21st century language learning agenda. This ground-breaking book shows how teachers can benefit enormously from the emergence of video distribution sites and the proliferation of mobile devices. The book invites teachers to experiment with film, and provides: insights into how learners can engage with film; it includes over 100 activities for teachers to bring film into the language class; and it also includes steps for teachers and learners to create their own moving images. We are living in an age of visual information and Film in Action takes on the challenge of the digital revolution to show teachers the educational benefits of not just watching but also creating moving images. Film in Action contains three distinctive parts, which focus in turn on theory, practice and development: Part A introduces the many different aspects of film: how it can inspire, while exposing learners to a wide range of authentic language, improving comprehension, intercultural understanding and visual literacy. Part B contains over 100 activities — from an exploratory look at film itself — across two chapters which move from responding actively to film to actively producing film. The activities are clearly and simply set out, mixing highly original ideas with reassuringly 'classical' procedures. Part C goes beyond the classroom into the wider school environment and into a world dominated by visual information, by looking at innovative ways to integrate moving images through longer, more complex projects.
