About this activity

We learned about this pedagogical framework that focuses on English as a tool for communication between people of different nations, rather than just mimicking native speakers.

However, it comprises a lot of must-study terms. Can you say what they are?

Avoid using acronyms, for example, EIL. Use the full definition.

1

Countries where English is the primary, native language, such as the United Kingdom, the United States, and Australia.

2

The mistake of measuring the success or competence of a bilingual learner against the model of a monolingual native speaker.

Hints

Example: Criticizing a student for an accent that does not sound British, even if they are perfectly understood.

3

Countries where English is widely studied as a foreign language for international purposes but has no official status, such as China, Japan, or Argentina.

4

A language which is used as a common means of communication between speakers whose first languages are different.

5

The process by which local communities in Outer Circle countries adapt English to their own cultural context and rules.

Hints

Example: The development of unique local vocabulary and grammar in ingaporean English.

6

A valid learning strategy where students alternate between their first language (L1) and English to clarify meaning or plan tasks.

Hints

Example: A student using a Spanish word to explain a complex concept they haven't learned in English yet during a group discussion.

7

A teacher who learned English as a second or foreign language and can serve as a "multi-competent" model for students.

8

The concept that an international language, like English, no longer belongs exclusively to its native-speaking countries.

Hints

Example: Recognizing that English is now a global tool owned and shaped by all its users worldwide, not just people in the UK or the US

9

The spread of a language not by the migration of its speakers, but by many individuals in a speech community choosing to learn it.

10

A teaching approach that rejects "one-size-fits-all" methods and adapts instruction to the local linguistic and cultural needs of the learners.
