WORLD ENGLISH Philosophy Statement by Rob Jenkins
���������������������
This revelation has led to classrooms that are no longer teacher-centric or lecture driven.
Instead, students are asked to think. ponder, and make decisions based on the information
received or. even more productive. students are asked to construct learning or discover
information in personal pursuits. or with help from an instructor, with partners, or in groups.
The practice they get from such approaches stimulates learning with a purpose. The purpose
becomes a tangible goal or objective that provides opportunities for students to transfer skills
and experiences to future learning.
In the context of language development, this approach becomes essential to real learning and
understanding. Learning a language is a skill that is developed only after significant practice.
Students can learn the mechanics of a language but when confronted with real-world situations.
they are not capable of communication. Therefore, it might be better to shift the discussion from
"Language Learning'' to ··communication Building." Communication should not be limited to only
the productive skills. Reading and listening serve important avenues for communication as well.
World English provides a clear chart within the table of contents to show the expected
outcomes of the course. The books are designed to capture student imagination and allow
students ample opportunities to communicate. A study of the table of contents identifies the
process of communication building that will go on during the course.
Context: It is important to identify what vehicle will be used to provide instruction. If students
are to learn through practice. language cannot be introduced as isolated verb forms, nouns,
and modifiers. It must have context. To reach the learners and to provide opportunities to
communicate. the context must be interesting and relevant to learners' lives and expectations.
In other words. there must be a purpose and students must have a clear understanding of what
that purpose is.
World English provides a meaningful context that allows students to connect with the world.
Research has demonstrated pictures and illustrations are best suited for creating interest and
motivation within learners. National Geographic has a long history of providing magnificent
learning environments through pictures, illustrations. true accounts, and video. The pictures.
stories. and video capture the learners' imagination and "hook'' them to learning in such
a way that students have significant reasons to communicate promoting interaction and
critical thinking. The context will also present students with a desire to know more. leading to
life-long learning.
World English lessons are designed on two-page spreads so students can easily see what is
expected and what the context is. The goal that directly relates to the final application activity is
identified at the beginning. Students. as well as instructors, can easily evaluate their performance
as they attempt the final activity. Students can also readily see what tools they will practice to
prepare them for the application activity. The application activity is a task where students can
demonstrate their ability to perform what the lesson goal requires. This information provides
direction and purpose for the learner. Students. who know what is expected, where they
are going, and how they will get there, are more apt to reach success. Each success builds
confidence and additional communication skills.
World English units are divided into ''lessons'' that each consists of a two-page spread. Each
spread focuses on different skills and strategies and is labeled by a letter (A-E). The units
contain the following lesson sequence:
A: Vocabulary
B: Listening and Pronunciation
C: Language Expansion
D: Reading/Writing
E: Video Journal
Additional grammar and vocabulary are introduced as tools throughout to provide practice
for the final application activity. Each activity in a page spread has the purpose of developing
adequate skills to perform the final application task.
LAST WORD
The philosophy of World English is to provide motivating context to connect students to the
world through which they build communication skills. These skills are developed, practiced, and
assessed from lesson to lesson through initially identifying the objective and giving learners the
tools they need to complete a final application task. The concept of performance is highlighted
over merely learning new information and performance comes from communicating about
meaningful and useful context. An accumulation of small communication skills leads to true and
effective communication outside of the classroom in real-world environments.
