영어교육 문제 [단답형1 + 논술형1]

Read the passage and fill in the blanks.

More recently, with an increase in constructivist approaches to the study of language, we have seen a shift in patterns of research. The shift has not been so much away from the generative/cognitive side of the continuum, but perhaps better described as a move even more deeply into the essence of language. Two emphases have emerged: (a) Researchers began to see that language was one manifestation of the cognitive and affective ability to deal with the world, with others, and with the self. (b) Moreover, the generative rules that were proposed under the nativistic framework were abstract, formal, explicit, and quite logical, yet they dealt specifically with the _____________ of language and not with the deeper __________ levels of meaning constructed from social interaction.

정답: forms, functional

2. Read the school situation as below and follow the directions.

School situation

Ms. Kim is teaching English in a Korean middle school. She has taught English through the medium of Korean as other English teachers do. She and her colleagues believe that it is too complicated to teach grammar in English but realizes that this is an essential part of their lesson to pass an exam. Even though there is one native English teacher who teaches conversation class one hour a week at school, the students do not seem to make an effort to communicate in English under any circumstances.

To solve this problem, the English teachers are expected to use English in their classroom. First, explain the reasons why the English teachers should model and use English communicatively in their classrooms. Second, describe the two methods to use more English in class. Write a well-formed paragraph.

모범답안:

The Korean Ministry of Education strives to achieve the aim that the Korean students who have learned English at school should be communicatively competent in English. If English teachers model and use English communicatively in their classes, their effort to improve students proficiency will be multiplied. By using English communicatively with their teacher and classmates, the students develop their ability to speak English in a comfortable atmosphere. When the teacher switches to speaking mostly or all in English, the lesson will be a chance to provide the students with authentic context to communicate in English. If she is to teach some grammar points in English, it might look more difficult in the first place, the students will be led to think over and engage in meaningful learning through English. Thus, not only will their communicative ability improve, but so will their test scores.

The first method to use English communicatively in classroom is to teach students “classroom English.” The students should be taught classroom expressions appropriate for their level; for example, ‘I don’t understand,’ ’Once again please,’ ‘What’s ~ in English?’ and so on. They will be made sure to understand how to say and when to use the expressions. Second, the teacher should be able to teach grammar in English, too. If she starts from the grammar point the students already know, the task can be more manageable. For instance, when ‘present progressive’ is taught, she’d better start from reviewing the present tense.

To conclude, our students will attempt to communicate in English if we are willing to do so ourselves. We are teaching not just spelling, vocabulary, and grammar in class, but also the value of communicating in English indirectly to our students.
