The Teaching and Acquisition of South Asian Languages
Author: Vijay GambhirPublisher: University of Pennsylvania Press
ISBN: 9780812233285
Category : Foreign Language Study
Languages : en
Pages : 250
Book Description
The first book to apply the latest methodological analysis to the languages of South Asia, The Teaching and Acquisition of South Asian Languages provides a much needed examination of learners and their learning patterns, language materials and their delivery, classroom environments, and learning conditions beyond the classroom. The contributors, accredited researchers and experienced teachers, test important universal learning hypotheses on "less commonly taught languages" and find that those circumstances have significant implications for theory and practice. The book brings into focus a variety of issues related to linguistic theory, second language acquisition research, non-verbal communication, discourse appropriateness, learner variation, and strategies for developing speaking, listening, and reading skills. It is also a valuable addition to the general body of knowledge in the field of adult language acquisition. A carefully prepared index and an extensive bibliography covering both the South Asian field and general literature enhance the book's usefulness as a reference guide.

ENGLISH SYNTAX
Author: Giovanny Irawan, M.HumPublisher: Media Nusa Creative (MNC Publishing)
ISBN: 602462087X
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 132
Book Description
There have been many books on English syntax available in the market. They were written in English for students of English around the world. Few books on Indonesian syntax have been written in Indonesian. However, a book on English syntax by Indonesian writers has not yet been available, let alone for Indonesian students of English at Kanjuruhan University of Malang. Considering this fact, we dare write a little book on English syntax. This little book was written on the basis of our students’ work on English syntax. A lot of input has been obtained after many years of teaching English syntax. The given data which become the raw materials for this little book were then compiled, and re-set under several headings. This little book falls into three big parts. Each part treats different topics which are then elaborated into several chapters. The first part deals with syntactic structures of modification, which are termed as phrases in grammar. The second part is about syntactic structures of predication and complementation which are crystallized into five basic sentence patterns where grammatical functions play their roles. The last part is concerned with semantic roles. The roles are divided into participants, processes, and circumstances
Content Knowledge in English Language Teacher Education
Author: Darío Luis BanegasPublisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1350084638
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
Content Knowledge in English Language Teacher Education provides original professional experiences and research accounts of teaching language in the specific context of English language teacher education programmes in diverse international settings, with contributions from Argentina, Australia, Chile, China, Ecuador, Japan, Mexico, the USA and Turkey. The volume focuses on how teacher educators plan and deliver modules which help future teachers understand English as a system and develop English language proficiency. The contributors describe and analyse their professional practices in designing, delivering and evaluating modules or courses on understanding the English language as a system, i.e. content knowledge, exploring the teaching of elements such as phonetics, phonology, grammar, pragmatics, philology, and discourse analysis. In addition, they draw on their vast professional experience to explore how to successfully develop competence and language skills in English so that teachers can become models and proficient users of the language for their students. The contributions range from more historical and functionally linguistic focused chapters to more sociocultural explorations of teaching English to future teachers including interculturality, multilingualism, World Englishes, critical thinking skills, academic writing, and literacy through literature. The accounts shed light on the diverse practices of educators from many different countries, contexts, and cultural and linguistic backgrounds, drawing links between policy and practice, to locate much of English language teacher education and curriculum development outside the so-called 'inner circle' of native English-language speaking contexts, practitioners, and researchers.

A Teacher'S Grammer Of English
Author: K.R. NarayanaswamyPublisher: Orient Blackswan
ISBN: 9788125026648
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 414
Book Description
It is a refresher, a reference book and a workbook for teachers of English. It is also for teachers handling subjects other than English in schools and colleges. The book centres round the idea that grammar paves the way for smooth and accurate communication, and aims to strike a balance between conventional concepts and latter-day developments, and between descriptive grammar and grammar in use. Each chapter of the book begins by describing the forms of the grammatical class or category it deals with. It then presents a variety of illustrative examples. Finally, it explains the communicative uses of the forms and the situations in which they are typically used. A distinct feature of the book is that it deals with both spoken and written grammar, with greater emphasis on the written mode.
