Q2209574 Inglês
English language teaching has gone through various trends and approaches. One of the traditional approaches is the Grammar Translation Method, which emphasizes memorizing grammar rules and translation. Newer approaches such as the Direct Method, Audio-Lingual Method, and Communicative Language Teaching focus on communication and interaction in the target language. Technology has also been incorporated in language learning, while task-based and project-based approaches emphasize real-world tasks and projects to develop language and other skills.

What is the main difference between the Grammar Translation Method and the Communicative Language Teaching approach?

"Language acquisition is a subconscious process which happens when people are exposed to language that is comprehensible to them. This means that language is acquired, not learned. People who are trying to learn a language are using a different part of their brains from those who are acquiring it naturally, and are therefore likely to take longer to become proficient."
Harmer, J. (2007). The practice of English language teaching. Pearson Education.

According to Jeremy Harmer, what is the main difference between acquiring a language and learning it?

"Conceptions of English language teaching and learning are diverse and influenced by different theoretical perspectives. Some of the current trends in English language teaching include communicative language teaching, task-based language teaching, and content-based instruction. Communicative language teaching emphasizes the use of language for communication rather than focusing solely on grammar and vocabulary. Task-based language teaching involves engaging students in meaningful tasks that require the use of language, while content-based instruction integrates language learning with subject matter instruction."

Interculturality and interdisciplinarity are essential for teaching English as a foreign language. Learning a foreign language is not just about learning grammar and vocabulary, but also involves understanding cultural differences and the contexts in which the language is used. Moreover, English language teaching should be interdisciplinary, meaning that it should integrate various fields of knowledge, such as linguistics, literature, history, and sociology, among others.

Here are two multicultural picture books about immigration thathave been suggested for elementary school children:
Here I Am
by Patti Kim

     Newly arrived in America from an Asian country, a young boy is overwhelmed by the lights and noise of a busy city. He finds comfort in a red seed he brought from his faraway home country. When he loses the seed, the search for it eventually leads him to new friendship. Without words and in expressive cartoon style, Here I am describes the confusion and sadness of an uprooted child.

Dear Baobab
by Cheryl Foggo

Moving from Tanzania to Canada with his aunt and uncle, little Maiko feels homesick. He remembers the big baobab tree in his home village, and feels a connection to a small spruce tree in his new home. Seven years old just like Maiko, the tree sings to him and shares his secrets. When there is talk of cutting down the tree because it is too close to the house, Maiko tries to save it. After all he knows what it feels like to be planted in the wrong place. Dear Baobab is one of my favourite multicultural picture books about immigration, because of its easy-to-relate-to allegory of an uprooted tree.

What is “World Englishes?”

        The term World Englishes refers to the differences in the English language that emerge as it is used in various contexts across the world. Scholars of World Englishes identify the varieties of English used in different sociolinguistic contexts, analyzing their history, background, function, and influence.
       Languages develop to fulfill the needs of the societies that use them. Because societies contain a diverse range of social needs, and because these needs can differ across cultures and geographies, multiple varieties of the English language exist. These include American English, British English, Australian English, Canadian English, Indian English, and so on.
         While there is no single way for a new variety of English to emerge, its development can generally be described as a process of adaptation. A certain group of speakers take a familiar variety of English and adapt the features of that variety to suit the needs of their social context.
          For example, a store selling alcoholic beverages is called a “liquor store” in American English, whereas it is called an “offlicence” in British English. The latter term derives from British law, which distinguishes between businesses licensed to sell alcoholic beverages for consumption off the premises and those licensed for consumption at the point of sale (i.e., bars and pubs).
      Such variations do not occur in terms of word choice only. They happen also in terms of spelling, pronunciation, sentence structure, accent, and meaning. As new linguistic adaptations accumulate over time, a distinct variety of English eventually emerges.
       World Englishes scholars use a range of different criteria to recognize a new English variant as an established World English. These include the sociolinguistic context of its use, its range of functional domains, and the ease with which new speakers can become acculturated to it, among other criteria.
