LING 51201 - Methods And Materials For TESOL 2 This course aims at broadening course participants’ understanding of principles and practices of course & lesson planning, assessment, and materials development for English as a new or foreign language (ENL/EFL) instruction. Building on topics covered in Methods and Materials for TESOL I, we will examine explicit instructional approaches and strategies with an emphasis on developing reading and writing skills in the English language for culturally and linguistically diverse learners. While there is an emphasis on literacy instruction in this course, participants should keep in mind that all of the 4 language skills (reading, writing, listening, and speaking) are integrated and evidence of this integration is expected in the design of lesson plans. Throughout the semester, we will explore 5 major interrelated topics, which are guided by and embedded in philosophies and theories of education, language, second language acquisition (SLA), teaching, and learning: standards, curriculum, pedagogy, culture, and literacy acquisition. This course involves pre-professional education/training. Experiential learning or fieldwork in a classroom setting is required. In order to qualify for TENL certification, students must obtain a grade of C or higher in all TENL courses.
