Dear sir,

I enjoyed yesterday's session that was our second session of the workshop. The stress-reducing part was very useful for us 'coz we, the English teachers, need to keep patience all the time and keeping patience may generate stress. Thanks a lot for your tips!

Dear sir
I do agree with Krashen that without extensive reading & listening, speaking and writing cannot be developed. But the thing is very often an intructor finds it difficult to improve the students' reading skills. so, i think an instuctor of English should keep on motivating his/her learners all the time. Most of the researchers say learners hardly make good process if they are given intensive-reading. Real process takes place when they are motivated to read extensively and if they read for pleasure. So i think students should be encouraged to do self-study, which has paramount importance. Alongside, they should be incited to read their text books and reference books thoroughly. Nothing can help them more than self-study, i suppose.

Dear Participants of the English Department Workshop,

This post is made on behalf of Asma Alam,
 

Steps for Ensuring English speaking environment in the Campus:


   1. Speaking English compulsory for Counselors:  At the very beginning of the admission process, if the students get the impression that an English speaking environment is prevailing here that will be a positive and effective step.
   2. Admission Test: The system of Admission test should be introduced and it must have a positive psychological effect on the students.
   3. Attitude towards English Department: It is essential for the inspiration of the teachers of English Department.
   4. Involve other teachers of other departments to speak English.
   5. Campus language should be English.
   6. Any kind of presentation on any topic must be in English.
   7. For the proper practice of speaking English: Teacher- student, Teacher-teacher, student-student conversation should be in English.
   8. All official programs (especially orientation program) should be in English.
   9. Self access centre should be introduced: In students’ common room TV set can be set and there various interesting and instructive programs (such as: Discovery channel, BBC TV, National Geographic channel) can be shown to the students.

This will indirectly contribute to enhance students’ speaking capability.


Steps to be taken to involve all (Teachers, students & even the authority):

 

  1. Arranging Teacher-Student mock debate in English. This will provide pleasure to all,

     Create a harmonious relationship among the teachers and the students and will help   

     students to speak English fluently.

 

 2. Arrangement of various English programs (staging English drama, poetry recitation,

    creative writing competition) in semester break.

 

  3. To encourage students about growing reading habit- Reading session from

    12:45-1:00 everyday in the varsity.

 

  4. Classes should be well equipped with multi-media and internet facilities.

 

  5. The effort of the teachers should be acknowledged by the authority. This

    appreciation can inspire others also.

Over to the others for comments.
