Theoretical framework for Materials Development
Needs analysis
Research question: How do first grade students develop their listening skill through short stories at Colombus American School?
Context: Colombus American School.
Theoretical framework:
Nuñez at al, 2009, presents a series of 8 components for materials development. 1. Needs assessment 2. Approach and design 3. Goals and objectives 4. Building the syllabus 5. Creating or adapting materiasl. 6. Revising and evaluating. 7. Piloting 8. Adjusting.
Second language acquisition principles: (Tomlinson, 1998)
• Achieve impact through novelty, variety, attractive presentation and appealing content.
• Help learners to feel ease: students learn in shorter time and being relaxed
• Readiness
• Draw learner’s conscious and unconscious attention to linguistic features.
• Provide opportunities for communicative purposes.
• Take into account students’ different learning styles
• Allows for a silent period
Learning strategies Approach: explicit: learners are aware of what and where they are
learning. (Tomlinson, 2011)
3
Vision of language: functional: language that we use to perform various functions (expressing likes and dislikes) (Tudor, 2001)
Theory of language learning:
- The role of affect: The interaction of students with learning activities is shaped by
cognitive, psychological and experiential factors that generate affective interaction with the learning process (Tudor, 2011)
Language teaching: indirect: it helps learners to discover thing for themselves.
(Tomlinson, 2011)
Language learning approach: Muti-dimensional approach: aims learners to develop the ability to produce and process an L2 by using their mental resources in ways similar to those they use when communicating in L1 (Tomlinson, 2000)
Innovation: At Colombus American School, a research based on English skills has never been developed. In this case this innovation will help students and teachers to address their need and try to find the correct path to overcome those.
