My blog in class week 3rd

          Today is week 3rd in the class. Some group present about Task Based learning and teaching speaking skills and teaching listening skills.

          The first, the task based learning is Task based language learning is a relatively new approach to second language acquisition. It requires learners to complete meaningful, real-world tasks such as writing an email, letter, essay or article, making a phone call, conducting an interview, and designing and creating media. The focus of a task is primarily on pragmatic meaning and any focus on form, i.e. grammar, vocabulary, lexis, etc., tends to be addressed according to issues that emerge during participation in the task itself. This makes TBLL particularly suitable for individualized learning and promoting learner independence.

          The second, teaching speaking skills is communicative efficiency. Learners should be able to make themselves understood, using their current proficiency to the fullest. They should try to avoid confusion in the message due to faulty pronunciation, grammar, or vocabulary, and to observe the social and cultural rules that apply in each communication situation.

          The third, Listening is the language modality that is used most frequently. It has been estimated that adults spend almost half their communication time listening, and students may receive .Listeners actively involve themselves in the interpretation of what they hear, bringing their own background knowledge and linguistic knowledge to bear on the information contained in the aural text. Listening involves a sender (a person, radio, television), a message, and a receiver (the listener). Listeners often must process messages as they come, even if they are still processing what they have just heard, without backtracking or looking ahead. Given the importance of listening in language learning and teaching, it is essential for language teachers to help their students become effective listeners. 
          Importantly, I think the teachers and learners who are not speak English must practice and practice a lot, because the English language is the second language for us.
