- Definition: As a teacher, we have to use real0life texts and situations in the classroom. Activities should be natural, rather than contrived, to encourage students' engagement.
- Questions and Answers:
1. How do we determine how authentic the texts are?
It depends on how you utilize the materials. For example, asking students to draw a cartoon strip about something very dramatic; that is, this could be a counterexample of AUTHENTIC texts.
2. Which of these text is most appropriate for listening activity?
Interviews, conversations or speeches seem to be more appropriate than other texts.
- Definition: As a teacher, we have to not only make students have interactions but also make them initiate language by themselves.
- Questions and Answers:
1. How would we intrinsically motivate shy students to initiate oral communication?
Pair work and small group work such as bingo activity can help us to make students start to talk.
Using extrinsic motivation to encourage to answer would be also good.
