Book Synopsis Teaching ESL to pre-literate adult refugees with no formal education by : Letitia Me-Oui Robinson
Download or read book Teaching ESL to pre-literate adult refugees with no formal education written by Letitia Me-Oui Robinson and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With growing populations of refugees coming to the United States every year, there is a distinct absence of effective ESL education for those who have no formal educational experience. Adult refugees who have never been to school have immense difficulties in acquiring a second language and are often taught in ways that are not designed around their learning styles and specific language goals. There is an established need for non-native English speaking adults to learn the language if they live and work in the United States. However, non-profit organizations such as Bethany Christian Services are unsure how best to expose these students in English within an academic structure. The entire school experience, (its rigor, structure, and expectations) is an unfamiliar environment to this demographic of people, so a more specialized kind of instruction is necessary to help them gain the English skills that are needed for survival in this country. This project explores the theories of adult education and second language acquisition in order to devise a means of ESL instruction what will effectively teach this population of learners. Its purpose will be to develop a specialized ESL unit plan to specifically address illiteracy/low-literacy in adult refugee populations who have never gone to school.

Book Synopsis Teaching English to Adult Immigrants by : Temesghen (Thomas) Beyene
Download or read book Teaching English to Adult Immigrants written by Temesghen (Thomas) Beyene and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2011-07 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Within the disciplines of Adult Education, Second Language Acquisition, and Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages, there is something that frequently gets overlooked: The aspect of learning styles. Adults, particularly those who are refugees and immigrants bring to bear "baggage" that would either hinder or help them in their acculturation, language acquisition, and general training processes. Educators will find this work very helpful as they endeavor to deliver to such segments of the learning public. This work also raises teachers' awareness of some universal sensitivities immigrants and refugees seem to bring into the classroom. The author, an educator with first hand experience himself, offers some fresh perspective and insight into attaining maximum results when dealing with the challenges of training and advancement of refugees and immigrants in general.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume demonstrates how an educational linguistics approach to inquiry is well positioned to identify, examine, and theorize the language and literacy dimensions of refugee-background learners’ experiences. Contributions (from junior and senior scholars) explore and interrogate the policies, practices and ideologies of language and literacy in formal and informal educational settings as well as their implications for teaching and learning. Chapters in this collection will inform advances in the research base, future innovations in pedagogy, the professional development of teachers, and the educational opportunities that are made available to refugee-background children, youth and adults. The work showcased here will be of particular interest to teachers and teacher educators committed to inclusion, equity, and diversity; those developing curriculum and/or assessment; and researchers interested in the relationship between language practice, language policy and refugee education.

Book excerpt: The result of a 2-year research study funded under the National English Literacy Demonstration Program for Adults of Limited English Proficiency, this handbook on adult English-as-a-Second-Language (ESL) literacy education represents a synthesis of ideas derived from various sources. It is meant as a resource for teachers who have some experience in teaching but are new to ESL literacy. It contains the following nine chapters: (1) "Adult ESL Literacy: State of the Art," which discusses some of the special features of adult ESL literacy; (2) "Approaches and Materials," which maintains that meaning-based approaches show the greatest promise in helping adults develop full literacy; (3) "Teaching Adult ESL Literacy in the Multilevel Classroom," which shows that group work is the most effective strategy for dealing with multilevel classrooms; (4) "Using Computer and Video Technology in Adult ESL Literacy," which discusses the pros and cons of using technology in ESL literacy teaching; (5) "Native Language Literacy," which demonstrates that using the native language of the learners is a viable approach to introducing literacy to adults who are not literate in their first language; (6) "Learner Assessment," which shows that program-based assessments are superior to standardized tests; (7) "Curriculum," which demonstrates that curriculum decisions are value decisions that mirror a program's philosophy; (8) "Staff Development and Program Issues," which holds that effective staff development should focus on the social context, adult learning, second language acquisition, literacy development, and effective teaching processes; and (9) "Curriculum Modules," which presents 10 teaching units that demonstrate meaning-based teaching.

This book was released on 2020-01-03 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inclusive education retains significant complexity associated with creating a definition, and there is significant importance within the surrounding narratives reflecting the broader definitions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The European Language Portfolio aims to foster the development of learner autonomy, intercultural awareness and plurilingualism. Teachers of particular languages working on their own can use the ELP to promote learner autonomy, but the goals of intercultural awareness and plurilingualism invite us to use the ELP in all foreign language classes at all levels in the school. The guide introduces the language education policy that underpins the ELP, explores the key concepts that it embodies, and explains how to plan, implement and evaluate whole-school ELP projects. The ten case studies published on the project website illustrate various dimensions of ELP use and include practical suggestions and activities for teachers and learners.
