Enriching ESOL Pedagogy: Readings and Activities for Engagement,
Reflection, and Inquiry is a collection of thought-provoking
articles and activities designed to engage practicing and
prospective ESOL teachers in an ongoing process of reflecting on,
critically examining, and investigating theory and practice. Its
twofold purpose is to provide a theoretical perspective and to
offer ways for making the teaching of English to speakers of other
languages (ESOL) meaningful for both teachers and learners.
Underlying the activities and the readings themselves is the
assumption that teachers need to play a role in exploring, shaping,
and theorizing the work they do. The readings included represent a
range of genres. They are informed by a common philosophical
perspective about language acquisition and treat language teaching
and learning holistically. The book is organized into five
integrated units that: raise questions about conventional notions
of methods; take into account the complicated nature of real
classrooms; provide theoretical principles for teaching that
promotes language acquisition; include rich descriptions of actual
classroom experiences; and question assumptions about language and
literacy. Each set of readings begin with a "Before Reading"
section and is followed by "Reflecting on the Readings," "Reading
for Further Reflection," and "Suggested Projects for Inquiry"
sections. This volume is a valuable resource for practicing and
prospective teachers in the field of TESOL who work with diverse
student populations--at all levels--in both mainstream and
ESL/bilingual settings.
