1.1Reasons for choosing the research.
Discuss teaching methods and innovative teaching methods, for about more than
10 years, we spend no less time and paper ink But in fact, teaching methods have not really become a wrench, a tool to help teachers in teaching but teaching methods are still in the literal sense papers, when read to understand nor easy, leading to a situation which the people are interested in this issue not from the fret Promote the positive properties of students through a series of teacher's impact is the essence of the new teaching methods.When it comes to sex positive, we expect your conception of action emerged from the students, are manifest to the outside or inside of the activity Thanks to promote positive that students are no longer passive Students become individuals in a collective desire to bring discovery, knowledge For this, the most difficult thing for the teacher is: One hour lecture, to do for the best students also satisfy the needs of knowledge, that knowledge is a new horizon And the weakest students also do not see abandoned, they are also involved in the process of exploring new things.This is especially necessary, because students would excite to find knowledge rather than passive, more crammed.Thus, this action aspirations or the other is the result of our desire
Foreign languages in general and English in particular is one of the
difficult subjects for students Most students are afraid to study this subject
because most of them do not have the communication environment, knowledge and limited vocabulary The skill is still slow Before they learn the passive
style, mainly focusing on the points of grammar,not well develope skills -
particularly listening skills Most of them depend on the answers available in the book They don’t really pay attention to the content listening lesson Class
listeners become bored, poor efficiency From this fact, I thought how to
stimulate and create the excitement for the students develop skills-particularly
listening skills.I've been researching and applying design initiatives"some
experience in teaching “Post- listening"
English 12 - Standard program for new and more attractive; in oder to
attract the interest of the students during listening lesson That is why I chose
this topic
1.2 Aims of the research
Definition highlights innovation agenda of the new textbooks is aximum
opportunity for students to practice four skills: listening, speaking, reading and writing Listening skills are one of the skills development focused in the new methods of teaching foreign languages Listening skills are important because students can't communicate verbally if not understand what hear
So, how do the students can listen to foreign language (English) quickly, effective and easy to learn? Especially when applied to actual communication activities in contact with foreigners? With the study of the subject, I wish teachers would partly help to overcome the difficulties to conduct training in
Trang 2English listening more effectively, students positive, more proactive when acquiring, comprehension is form of lessons
1.3.Object of research
The theme revolves around the issue of research, design some experience
in teaching “Post-listening" English 12 - Standard program to teach listening
skills for students, particularly in the classes 12C6, 12C7 Duong Dinh Nghe
High School - Thieu Hoa district - Thanh Hoa (school year 2016-2017)
1.4.Researching methods
When researching this topic, I need to perform the following tasks:
-Look at the documentation of teaching and learning English, listening teaching techniques
- Sports instructors, teach the test
- Classroom observations colleagues, exchange, learn from experience
- Test, evaluate the results of the grasp of all students, so that there is a
reasonable additional adjustments
2.DEVELOPEMENT
2.1 Theoretical basis
Through these lessons, I found myself to be the purpose of the lesson is to develop listening skills of student comprehension as deep listening (intensive listening), listening wide (extensive listening), listen to retrieve specific information (listening for specific information) and listening to retrieve key information (listening for gist), That's why I think that we need to redesign some of the activities in the " Post- listening " in the listening lesson After each hearing to change the form and other activities to promote good comprehension skills of students after listening to as: Rearrange the picture, sentence order (Reorder the pictures, sentences ), question & answer (Question & Answer),
to use the words suggested to say the phrase means (using these cues with words
to make a meaningful sentence), fill in the blank (Gap-Fill), plays (Roleplay), talk (discussion), games (games)
Listening activities in the "Post-listening" no more than 10 minutes in each listening lesson,
These activities must be linked to the content of each lesson and must be consistent with the ability of students; not too hard but not too easy to cause boredom for students
To create real excitement for the students; making them must be active while listening; no longer dependent on the answers available in the book; avoid boredom in listening.lesson Because after listening, the the students can repeat some of the content has just been heard in many different forms
2.2.Real situations
Through the teaching of listening the program grades 10, 11 at Duong Dinh
Nghe High School,I find the majority of the students are passive, not really
interested in learning The reason is because most of the hard of hearing children understand what a text or dialogue and they are already available answers in the
Trang 3book When teachers ask listeners to give their answers as they are not really
focused on the content of all listening, just asking about teacher training in their books, they justgive the answer absolutely correct Moreover, at the beginning
of the school year, I sometimes try to student listening test (15 minutes); but the quality of their listening is not high Specifically as follows:
Check the results of the students listening comprehension through the
"post - listening" (at the beginning of the school year 2016-2017):
According to the figures at the beginning of the school year
2016 – 2017
Class
From this situation, I think it must redesign the listening exercise in the "Post-listening" with many different activities to promote good listening skills and understanding of students; these activities in moderation, not too difficult nor too easy
However, through the activities in the "Post-listening" we can also promote the organization of activities for students to work in groups, pairs, or individuals It is these activities encourage students to be more confident, more confident and more active while learning
To do this requires a great effort of teachers and students
2.3 Solutions
For a lesson in listening effectively, in addition to teachers to prepare a lesson plan ensuring knowledge and skills, innovative teaching methods, to comply with the process, listening teaching techniques, the teacher needs toorganize the activities in the "Post-Listening" creatively and assigned to prepare students for a specific way
2.3.1 Preparing
- Students have to prepare the vocabulary at home before class.The teacher can give the words need to be taught in the listening to students can compose before the meaning of those words
- Teachers should redesign the activities in the "Post-listening" attractive
so avoid cases the students have available answers in the book
- Depending on the teacher, can use Pictures, Posters, Handouts to save time for students
2.3.2 The activities teach the "Post - listening"
-The teacher devides the class into pairs, groups, teams to suit every activity
-Using Pictures, Posters, Handouts, for the activities and instructions for students how to perform the appropriate activities for each
- Plus bonus if individuals, pairs or groups do well to encourage students, to
Trang 4create the excitement while learning.
