ESP - Term 1 week 1 meeting 1



This week we discussed ESP. These are some of the suggestions baring in mind the level of students and time allocated for ESP :

  • focusing on ESP as a learning process and not as a final product.
  • engaging students in the ESP learning process by asking about their needs and wants
  • helping students be aware of their own abilities and potential
  • training students to use different strategies to help them with ESP in general. These strategies, students  can continue developing after the course
  • practice using mind-maps
  • learning to classify words using grids and drawings and shapes
  • students create ESP flash cards in their major ( term  1 - 2 -3 )
  • preparing a three minute presentation in their major  ( term  3 )
  • preparing a two minute demonstration in their major ( term 2 )
  • using authentic material  
  • students look for online website or blogs in their major
  • students prepare their CV  
  • students can create a dictionary for ESP using a small notebook . students can add words and pictures and drawings mind-maps about their major
  • working in groups or pairs  - students prepare a project for ESP -( timelines - a master mind-map - a notebook ESP dictionary ....)

Please share your suggestions with us on this blog
