| 内容記述タイプ | Other | |||||
| 内容記述 | This paper reports on an initial investigation into the pedagogic material developed by teachers to facilitate the fulfillment of the main aim of the English 1 Communication Course syllabus: i.e. ‘to develop the English skills necessary for effective communication’ through ‘work in pairs and small groups and . . . class discussions’ (Kansai University English Communication Team 2008). Section 2 explicates the design of an instrument to extract empirical, quantitative data from a representative sample of materials for a preliminary formative evaluation. The findings presented in section 4 show (i) a preponderance of oral information gap and opinion gap activities to the virtual exclusion of reasoning gap activities, and (ii) a high degree of homogeneity in activity design (i.e. a bias towards one-way interaction relationships, required interaction, divergent goal orientation, and open outcome). From these findings, section 5 draws the conclusion that while the materials do fulfill their remit, a range of design modifications may be considered by teachers desiring to enhance their overall effectiveness. Section 6 outlines the limitations of the current investigation and proposes areas for further research which arise out of it: specifically, replication studies and investigations into (i) the topic foci of materials, (ii) the felicity of materials in promoting complex language output and facilitating the negotiation of meaning, (iii) the structure of activities when executed in class and (iv) teacher-developers’ beliefs. It is hoped that the investigation presented here is of practical benefit to English 1 Communication teachers engaged in materials development, and that it constitutes a useful starting point for an ongoing process of formative evaluation. |
