Abstract | Designed to expose teachers of Asian populations to innovative teaching techniques and to help them develop teaching skills and a deeper cross-cultural awareness and appreciation of Asian cultures, a 2-week institute covered skills in teaching English as a second language and aspects of Asian culture and language that significantly affect language learning process. The English as a second language component used training materials that were self-instructional and self-pacing, with learning being highly individualized. Participants also met in small groups with a master teacher and were involved in micro-teaching (trying out new techniques with small groups of actual students, and being video taped). The Asia studies component consisted of linguistic and cultural segments, which included four evening cultural programs in which participants experienced concrete examples of oriental culture, and lectures, discussion, and other programs on contrastive linguistics, which introduced the Chinese language and the Cantonese dialect. Participants received additional training in the teaching of English as a second language and in the area of cross-cultural communication, through role play activities. A series of slide tape teacher training packages and a film on nonverbal communication were produced as a result of the program. (WL) |
