Welcome to Enjoy Learning English's blog
The aim of this blog is to offer my students a new tool to learn English while enjoying their favourite activity, the Internet.
In this blog they will find useful resources that will probably help them to improve their English
It is going to be the "HOME" of all my students' course blogs where they post their works.

Treatment of English collocations has only recently begun to find its way in pedagogical materials targeted at the learner of English as a Foreign Language (EFL). This essay will first, draw an outline of the concept of collocation and examine relevant aspects of the way collocational studies are conducted; second, it will look into the (actual and potential) contribution of the findings of collocational studies to EFL instruction and support materials, as well as examine the pedagogical treatment of the collocational properties of lexical items in them

http://www.gabrielatos.com/MindingOurPs.htm

Gabrielatos, C. (1994). Minding our Ps. Current Issues 3, 5-8.

Introduction

In this article I will take a critical look at the content and format of the 'grammar lesson' as currently favoured by teachers and materials designers alike in the field of TEFL; namely the Presentation-Practice-Production (PPP) structure. In the discussion of the merits and shortcomings/limitations of this structure I will draw on (a) current views on TEFL methodology, (b) relevant theoretical assumptions and empirical findings in the field of Second Language Acquisition (SLA), and (c) two theoretical models in cognitive psychology relevant to SLA.

Gabrielatos, C. (2003). Grammar, grammars and intuitions in ELT: A second opinion. IATEFL Issues 170, 2-3.

Introduction

Richard Bradford (IATEFL Issues 167: 13) criticises the treatment of grammar in ELT materials and invites the ELT community to do something about the situation. He implies that we should stop using any grammar-related books, because they are riddled with terminology, and their content has little to do with what he terms “humanistic”, “free-range”, “standard” English.

•LLT is a fully refereed international journal with an editorial board of international scholars in the fields of second language acquisition and computer-assisted language learning.

•LLT publishes articles that report on original research or present an original framework that links second language acquisition theory, previous research, and language learning, teaching, and testing practices that utilize technology. Articles containing only descriptions of software, pedagogical procedures, or those presenting results of surveys without providing empirical data on actual language learning outcomes will not be considered. LLT also publishes commentaries that discuss material either previously published in LLT or otherwise offering interesting opinions on issues related to language learning and technology.

GEOGRAPHICAL NAMES / NATIONALITIES
This list gives the names of most countries in the world which have a population greater than 1.000.000. Entries in the adjective column tell you which word to use than referring to things that come from or relate to that country. Entries in the people column tell you what word refers to the people of that country. Very often, this word is the same as the nationality adjective, in which case it is not repeated. For example: you would refer to the Afghan capital, Kabul; and someone who comes from Afganistan is an Afghan.
