Issue 1. Unfamiliar vocabulary While teaching higher- level students irrespective of their nationality, unfamiliar vocabulary has always been recognized as one of the major factors which hinders listening comprehension [3]. The reason for it lies in the authentic nature of presentations like TED Talks. As this genre can cover all types of topics, a listener may have problems with understanding colloquial expressions, idioms, phrasal verbs, professional jargon vocabulary, etc. The following issue may lead to utter misunderstanding of the listening passage or partial loss of the essential parts of the TED Talk lecture/ presentation. Suggestion 1 Aim: Pre-teach single lexical items and multiword units causing problems in understanding a lecture/ presentation. (Appendix 1) Procedure: – Find one of the TED Talks which you like most – If there is a script/subtitles of a TED Talk, read it through and think which words, chunks or collocations may cause breakdown in understanding. If it is a video, watch it to catch those problematic vocabulary units and write them out for your students. – Give students a list of sentences with the vocabulary units causing problems in understanding – In pairs students contextually try to guess the meanings of the words – After students match the words with their definitions. – Lastly, a teacher and students check their answers in an open-class feedback. Evaluation: In the bottom-up model of processing, learners benefit from the opportunity to investigate unfamiliar vocabulary. Learners think, discuss and process new knowledge making deductions about the information they are going to listen to. Additionally, working with unknown vocabulary decreases stress and removes fears of listening. жүктеу/скачать 4.6 Mb. Достарыңызбен бөлісу:
