The proliferation of approaches and methods is a prominent characteristic of contemporary second and foreign language teaching. To some, this reflects the strength of the teaching profession. Invention of new classroom practices and approaches to designing language programs and materials reflects a commitment to finding more efficient and more effective ways of teaching languages. The classroom teacher and the program coordinator have a wider variety of methodological options to choose from than ever before. They can choose methods and materials according to the needs of learners, the preferences of teachers, and the constraints of the school or educational setting. To others, however, the wide variety of method options currently available confuses rather than comforts. Methods appear to be based on very different views of what language is and how a language is learned. Some methods recommend apparently strange and unfamiliar classroom techniques and practices; others are described in books that are hard to locate, obscurely written, and difficult to understand. Above all, the practitioner is often bewildered by the lack of any comprehensive theory of what an approach and method are.
Some of the responses to these issues may take the form of new approaches and methods as the teaching profession responds to the findings of new research and to the developments in educational theory and practice. The initiatives for changing programs and pedagogy may come from within the profession as well as from demands of a political, social, or even fiscal nature. Therefore, identifying some of the factors that have influenced language teaching trends’ shifts in the past, and that can be expected to continue to do so in the future, is relevant.

Then-vice president Joe Biden once said “it’s easy being vice president, you don’t have to do anything”. Others who have
held the office have spoken of it in similar terms. Yet, in recent decades, the vice president has come to take an influential role
on certain policy issues, and particularly on foreign policy.
Typically, a vice president can serve as an advisor and confidant to the president, and be charged with overseeing particular
issues, as Kamala Harris initially was for the Biden administration’s immigration response. Prior to her, George W Bush’s vice
president, Dick Cheney, led much of the administration’s efforts related to the War on Terror; then-Vice President Joe Biden led
critical Obama administration’s foreign policy initiatives ranging from Latin America to Iraq; and Vice President Mike Pence
made trips reassuring US allies and partners overseas and delivered speeches during the Trump administration that gave
strategic clarity to the administration’s actions.
On no account should the position of vice president be seen that way during campaigning, just because one running for
the presidential position might, and will be, beaten if the vice president candidate is not convincing enough, especially if that is
the sort of politician who used to abhor the current running mate.

Less than half of Generation Z watch broadcast TV
Emma Saunders.
Culture reporter.
For the first time, less than half of 16 to 24-year-olds are now watching traditional TV each week.
Just 48% of young adults tuned in during an average week last year, compared with 76% just five years before (2018),
according to Ofcom’s annual Media Nations report.
They watched traditional TV for an average of 33 minutes each day, down 16% year-on-year.
It will come as no surprise to many that the age group spent three times as long each day (1hr 33min) watching video-sharing platforms such as TikTok and YouTube.
Children between the ages of four and 15 are also switching off, with only 55% watching traditional TV each week last year,
compared to 81% in 2018.
But there has also been a decline in middle-aged viewers (45 to 54), dropping from 89% to 84% since 2023, and a 5% drop
in viewers aged between 65 and 75.
The over 75s slightly increased their traditional TV viewing, up 1% from last year, Ofcom said.
The overall viewing figures declined by 6% last year, although that was a slower fall than in 2022 (12%).
However, there was brighter news for radio. The first quarter of 2024 saw the highest number of weekly radio listeners across
all devices in the last 20 years (just under 50 million). Listening time is up on last year to an average of 20.5 hours per week.
Much of this is down to commercial radio’s continued success – just over seven in 10 people aged 15 and over tune into
commercial stations at least once a week (70.4%) compared to 55.6% for BBC stations.
But BBC Radio 2 was still the most popular UK station, and commercial radio had a slightly lower average listening time
each week (14.0 hours compared to 14.2 hours for BBC stations).
Most watched programmes in 2023
New Year's Eve Fireworks – BBC One, 12.1m
Happy Valley – BBC One (series three, final episode) 12.1m
The Coronation of The King and Queen Camilla – BBC One, 12m
Eurovision Song Contest – BBC One, 10.1m
Strictly Come Dancing – BBC One (series 21 finale) – BBC One, 9.9m
I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! – ITV1 (series 23, launch episode) – 9.9m
Beyond Paradise – BBC One (series one, episode one) – 9m
Death in Paradise – BBC One (series 12, episode two) – 8.7m
Glastonbury – BBC One (25 June) – 8.4m
Call the Midwife Holiday Special – BBC One – 8.4m
Music streaming
Streaming was the second most listened to form of audio last year, with 50% of adults using services such as Spotify each
week.
Music streaming continues to account for two thirds of the total income for the record industry.
YouTube on Telly
Despite shifts in viewing habits, TV screens are becoming more popular for watching YouTube content.
The report says 34% of time spent watching YouTube at home is now on a TV set, up from 29% in 2022. This increases to
45% among children aged 4 to 15 – up from 36% in 2022.
YouTube’s total in-home use grew to 38 minutes per person per day in 2023, an increase of 20% year-on-year.
Overall, UK viewers watched more TV and video content at home in 2023, averaging 4hrs 31min a day (an increase of 6
minutes or 2% since 2022).
This was mainly driven by an increase in daily viewing to video-sharing platforms (including YouTube) and to broadcast
video-on-demand services, such as iPlayer and ITVX.
Those services grew by 29% in 2023.
Subscription services
Overall daily viewing of subscription streaming services increased by six minutes to 38 minutes a day, with Netflix
remaining the most popular service, accounting for half of all subscription video-on-demand viewing.
But those pay-for streaming services have plateaued in reach, with about two thirds of households (68%) using at least
one last year, similar to 2022.
Yet the sector made just under £4bn in subscription revenue last year, up 22%, largely due to price increases.

Music streaming continues to account for two thirds of the total income for the record industry.
YouTube on Telly
Despite shifts in viewing habits, TV screens are becoming more popular for watching YouTube content.
The report says 34% of time spent watching YouTube at home is now on a TV set, up from 29% in 2022. This increases to
45% among children aged 4 to 15 – up from 36% in 2022.
YouTube’s total in-home use grew to 38 minutes per person per day in 2023, an increase of 20% year-on-year.
Overall, UK viewers watched more TV and video content at home in 2023, averaging 4hrs 31min a day (an increase of 6
minutes or 2% since 2022).
This was mainly driven by an increase in daily viewing to video-sharing platforms (including YouTube) and to broadcast
video-on-demand services, such as iPlayer and ITVX.
Those services grew by 29% in 2023.
Subscription services
Overall daily viewing of subscription streaming services increased by six minutes to 38 minutes a day, with Netflix
remaining the most popular service, accounting for half of all subscription video-on-demand viewing.
But those pay-for streaming services have plateaued in reach, with about two thirds of households (68%) using at least
one last year, similar to 2022.
Yet the sector made just under £4bn in subscription revenue last year, up 22%, largely due to price increases.

Less than half of Generation Z watch broadcast TV
Emma Saunders.
Culture reporter.
For the first time, less than half of 16 to 24-year-olds are now watching traditional TV each week.
Just 48% of young adults tuned in during an average week last year, compared with 76% just five years before (2018),
according to Ofcom’s annual Media Nations report.
They watched traditional TV for an average of 33 minutes each day, down 16% year-on-year.
It will come as no surprise to many that the age group spent three times as long each day (1hr 33min) watching video-sharing platforms such as TikTok and YouTube.
Children between the ages of four and 15 are also switching off, with only 55% watching traditional TV each week last year,
compared to 81% in 2018.
But there has also been a decline in middle-aged viewers (45 to 54), dropping from 89% to 84% since 2023, and a 5% drop
in viewers aged between 65 and 75.
The over 75s slightly increased their traditional TV viewing, up 1% from last year, Ofcom said.
The overall viewing figures declined by 6% last year, although that was a slower fall than in 2022 (12%).
However, there was brighter news for radio. The first quarter of 2024 saw the highest number of weekly radio listeners across
all devices in the last 20 years (just under 50 million). Listening time is up on last year to an average of 20.5 hours per week.
Much of this is down to commercial radio’s continued success – just over seven in 10 people aged 15 and over tune into
commercial stations at least once a week (70.4%) compared to 55.6% for BBC stations.
But BBC Radio 2 was still the most popular UK station, and commercial radio had a slightly lower average listening time
each week (14.0 hours compared to 14.2 hours for BBC stations).

Literacy Instruction for Young EFL Learners:
A Balanced Approach
Developing literacy skills in a foreign language can begin as
early as foreign language instruction begins. Although some EFL
programs delay literacy instruction for young learners and only
focus on oral language development, studies have shown that it is
not necessary, or even recommended, to take this approach. First,
it is widely known that literacy skills in the native or first language
(L1) can be transferred to reading and writing in a foreign
language, such as English. Remember that “One only has to
become ‘literate’ once” (Shin and Crandall, 2014, p. 160), so
English as a foreign language (EFL) teachers can tap into students’
understanding of print and strategies for making meaning from
text that originate in their L1 as a starting point for building literacy
in English. Even further, research supports that literacy skills can
be transferred bidirectionally—that is, both ways between L1 and
L2—and the language of initial literacy does not necessarily need
to be the L1. Even preschool-age children who are not yet literate
in their L1 can still engage in early literacy activities that build
reading readiness and phonemic awareness. Teachers can read big
books with print aloud and use songs and rhymes to focus on the
sounds of English. They can also engage students in writing
readiness exercises like tracing, connecting the dots, and coloring.
These are fun and effective activities for building early literacy with
young EFL learners.
Although EFL teachers usually have limited time in class,
sometimes only 3–5 hours a week, they should incorporate literacy
instruction and not just oral skills development for young learners,
especially because learning to read is also proven to assist in oral
language development.[…] If students progress faster when
reading is part of language instruction, EFL teachers of young
learners should use a curriculum that integrates all four language
skills and provides a balanced approach to literacy instruction.

learners should use a curriculum that integrates all four language
skills and provides a balanced approach to literacy instruction.

TEXT VI
Literacy Instruction for Young EFL Learners:
A Balanced Approach
Developing literacy skills in a foreign language can begin as
early as foreign language instruction begins. Although some EFL
programs delay literacy instruction for young learners and only
focus on oral language development, studies have shown that it is
not necessary, or even recommended, to take this approach. First,
it is widely known that literacy skills in the native or first language
(L1) can be transferred to reading and writing in a foreign
language, such as English. Remember that “One only has to
become ‘literate’ once” (Shin and Crandall, 2014, p. 160), so
English as a foreign language (EFL) teachers can tap into students’
understanding of print and strategies for making meaning from
text that originate in their L1 as a starting point for building literacy
in English. Even further, research supports that literacy skills can
be transferred bidirectionally—that is, both ways between L1 and
L2—and the language of initial literacy does not necessarily need
to be the L1. Even preschool-age children who are not yet literate
in their L1 can still engage in early literacy activities that build
reading readiness and phonemic awareness. Teachers can read big
books with print aloud and use songs and rhymes to focus on the
sounds of English. They can also engage students in writing
readiness exercises like tracing, connecting the dots, and coloring.
These are fun and effective activities for building early literacy with
young EFL learners.
Although EFL teachers usually have limited time in class,
sometimes only 3–5 hours a week, they should incorporate literacy
instruction and not just oral skills development for young learners,
especially because learning to read is also proven to assist in oral
language development.[…] If students progress faster when
reading is part of language instruction, EFL teachers of young
learners should use a curriculum that integrates all four language
skills and provides a balanced approach to literacy instruction.

Understanding stereotypes
Stanford linguists and psychologists study how language is
interpreted by people. Even the slightest differences in language
use can correspond with biased beliefs of the speakers, according
to research.
One study showed that a relatively harmless sentence, such as
“girls are as good as boys at math,” can subtly perpetuate sexist
stereotypes. Because of the statement’s grammatical structure, it
implies that being good at math is more common or natural for
boys than girls, the researchers said.
Language can play a big role in how we and others perceive the
world, and linguists work to discover what words and phrases can
influence us, unknowingly.
