Week 10

 

Sunday March 6 period 3 speaking test preparation

 

Students had ample time to prepare for their speaking tests using the method used Thu March 3 (below)

 

Speaking Assessment 2 – Week 10 of term (15%)

  • Video description (non-routine situations) (Part 1)
  • Follow-up questions related to the video (Part 2)
    • Demonstrate ability to describe a short video using Aviation English vocabulary
    • Demonstrate ability to answer questions asked by interviewer
    • Demonstrate ability to speak fluently using a range of grammatical structures

 

Week 9 

 

Thursday, March 3  (Period 1) Speaking assessment preparation

 

View a video segment and make a recording in this way

 

Follow this method explained here
Please understand the method of speaking exam preparation in Vance.docx

 

1. Watch a video from this list
http://efan101.pbworks.com/w/page/87785011/Videoclips_for_N101_Final_Speaking

 

2. USE the worksheet I gave you and which many of you filled out 

http://vancesclass.pbworks.com/w/file/105680658/Week10videopractice.docx

 

3. Make a recording of your answers to the questions you wrote on the worksheet

 

4. Email the recording to vstevens@hct.ac.ae or airdrop it to me during class 

     AND return the worksheet you worked from

 

When I get BOTH the recording AND the worksheet

I will provide feedback on the recording written on the worksheet

 

What happened in this class?

 

The teacher set the assignment as shown above.

It was displayed on the board and available to the students on their iPads

The teacher modeled what he wanted the students to do

  • He chose clip 3 from this page with the video clips above
  • He went over the questions checklist and explained how he would fill it in for that clip
  • He recorded a sample speaking test in a few minutes 
    20160303-070801nearmiss.m4a  

 

Despite thorough preparation and clear instructions, no students produced any audio during this class 

 

 

 

Wednesday, March 2 (Period 7) Continue with speaking test preparation

 

Follow this cycle: Please understand the method of speaking exam preparation in Vance.docx

 

Please understand the method of speaking exam preparation in Vance’s Classes

 

First we introduce the ICAO exam context via PIE (Practice ICAO Exams) site, VIDEO descriptions

http://www.practiceicaoenglish.com/demo/index.html (find this link at Bb Mobile Learn)

 

Next we provide a CHECKLIST of points you might cover on your speaking final exam

http://vancesclass.pbworks.com/w/file/105680658/Week10videopractice.docx

(This and other links available at http://VancesClass.pbworks.com)

 

Third, we MODEL what you need to do on the speaking test

You can find sample videos here
http://efan101.pbworks.com/w/page/87785011/Videoclips_for_N101_Final_Speaking

 

We have three steps for modeling. For each of the videos

(1)    We have a Hot Potatoes exercise that each student can complete online

(2)    We have worksheets made from these exercises

(3)    Students can fill out the written checklist for each of these models

 

Finally, students can record themselves using the worksheet in step (3) above

Your teacher will correct your worksheet and return it to you.

(1)    Make your first two recordings using the completed worksheet

(2)    After that try making recordings without using the worksheet

 

Vance will record in his gradebook each time you have

(1)    Completed a Hot Potatoes cloze exercise

(2)    Completed a worksheet

(3)    Emailed your recording to vstevens@hct.ac.ae

 

This method is meant to help students improve in their speaking performance. Because teacher time is limited and in order to work efficiently, Vance accepts recordings only from students who have followed the prescribed approach designed to help them improve. These steps must be followed so that available time can be spent on students who are working systematically to improve their performance.
