    In: English Teaching Forum 2012, Volume 50, Number 1 Format(s): Text

According to Alatis, the future of TESOL will involve more audiovisual and online material, all subjects taught by ESL teachers, and more concern for cultures of other countries.
  4. Football: Action on the Gridiron

    In: English Teaching Forum 2010, Volume 48, Number 4 Format(s): Text
    This issue features an in-depth article on the history, mechanics, gameplay, culture, and appeal of American football as well as a piece on America's yearly big event (the Super Bowl). There are powerful, dynamic sports photographs and descriptive, numbers-based explanations of how to play. The historical context reveals that football is not purely an American creation.

  5. Video Recording as a Stimulus for Reflection in Pre-Service EFL Teacher Training

    In: English Teaching Forum 2009, Volume 47, Number 2 Format(s): Text
    All teachers should reflect on their teaching. In this article, the author argues for using video recording as a tool for critical reflection. She states that recording and review should be used even at the early stages of pre-service teacher training in microteaching sessions. She suggests that after the teaching is completed, teachers view the tape multiple times by themselves, then with a peer, and finally with a supervisor. Outcomes for this training include increased self-awareness, role shift from actor to director, and increased continuity.

  8. Students as Textbook Authors

    In: English Teaching Forum 2007, Volume 45, Number 3 Format(s): Text
    The authors describe their experience using a learner-centered approach to turn learner writing into booklets. When students write about their own lives, they can focus on the language they need to express their ideas. Interaction increases because interest is high. Near beginners can create fact sheets about themselves, and more advanced students can write language-learning histories. The texts can become fill-in-the-blank activities or be read aloud. Student texts inform instructors of needs and interests; they give students ownership of their learning and provide models for future classes.
