Needs analyses are the cornerstone of English for Specific Purposes courses. This paper reveals a methodology and results of a needs analysis study which investigated students' and instructors' needs in one medical faculty in EFL context. For the purpose of the study, perceptions of the stakeholders of the current program were investigated via questionnaires and interviews. This article reports on the results of a needs analysis study which investigated medical students' English language needs in an EFL context. Findings from the survey study indicate some constants in these students' needs, e.g. a prioritizing of reading skills, as well as several evolving trends in the students' and professors' perceptions of their foreign language needs, including a greater recognition by the professors of the importance for academic writing skills for research purposes, and speaking and listening skills to ease professional communications at international conferences. Both students and professors also gave increasing emphasis on the overall importance of English and on the incorporating of technology into EFL instructional approaches. Suggestions for effective curriculum have been provided.

Introducing language use and interaction as the basis of good teaching and learning, this invaluable book equips teachers and researchers with the tools to analyze classroom discourse and move towards more effective instruction. Presenting an overview of existing approaches to describing and analyzing classroom discourse, Steve Walsh identifies the principal characteristics of classroom language in the contexts of second language classrooms, primary and secondary classrooms, and higher education settings. A distinct feature of the book are the classroom recordings and reflective feedback interviews from a sample group of teachers that Walsh uses to put forward SETT (Self Evaluation of Teacher Talk) as a framework for examining discourse within the classroom. This framework is used to identify different modes of discourse, which are employed by teachers and students, to increase awareness of the importance of interaction, and to maximize learning opportunities. This book will appeal to applied linguists, teachers and researchers of TESOL, as well as practitioners on MEd or taught doctorate programmes.

This book examines the ways in which English is conceptualised as a global language in Japan, and considers how the resultant language ideologies – drawn in part from universal discourses; in part from context-specific trends in social history – inform the relationships that people in Japan have towards the language. The book analyses the specific nature of the language’s symbolic meaning in Japan, and how this meaning is expressed and negotiated in society. It also discusses how the ideologies of English that exist in Japan might have implications for the more general concept of ‘English as a global language’. To this end it considers the question of what constitutes a ‘global’ language, and how, if at all, a balance can be struck between the universal and the historically-contingent when it comes to formulating a theory of English within the world.

Assessment As Learning written by Lorna M. Earl and has been published by Corwin Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2013 with Education categories.
This is a book for teachers and school leaders on formative assessment i.e., assessment as learning where assessment occurs throughout the learning process to inform learning as opposed to assessment that occurs at the end of a learning unit to measure what students have learned (summative assessment). Formative assessment emphasizes the role of the student, not only as a contributor to the assessment and learning process, but the critical connector between them. It defines assessment of learning, assessment for learning and assessment as learning, making a case for assessment as learning. It addresses assessment in the context of what learning is. It shows how to use formative assessment to motivate student learning, help students make connections so that they move from emergent to proficient, extend their learning and to help them become reflective self-regulators of their own learning. It explores how teachers can make the shift to formative assessment by engaging in conceptual change.
