| description | This project paper is an investigation on the use of group work in
the teaching and learning of English as a Second Language (ESL). It is
selected in view of the many advantages of group work and if fully
exploited it can be an innovative strategy that can be effectively used in
the ESL classrooms.
A short survey has been included in this project paper. It attempts
to find out the use of group work in the ESL classrooms through the
administration of a questionnaire. An analysis of the data showed that the
majority of the respondents were receptive towards' the use of group
work. Hence, group work can be further exploited as an innovative
strategy for the teaching of English.
In addition, it proposes five sample lesson plans that include
several types of group work which can be used for teachings English for
the KBSM Form Two classes. These sample lesson plans attempt to
highlight the various types of group work and to give an insight to
language teachers using group work in ESL classrooms.
Some suggestions and recommendations have also been included
with the hope that teachers will give group work its due consideration in
the teaching of English. |
