A Course Book for EFL Cosmetology Students


Eunjee Ko (International Graduate School of English, Seoul) in Lecture
Theatre 1


at The MATSDA/University of Liverpool Conference: Authenticity and Materials
Development for Language Learning



There are four major reasons why it is urgent to develop a course book
for EFL cosmetology students in Korea: 1) 1,451,257 foreign residents in Korea
2) the popularity of Korean beauty products 3) the enactment of regulations for
beauty business promotion in 2010. To develop the course book, a needs analysis,
an existing materials analysis and a review of literature were done to answer
the following two research questions: 1) What are the critical elements that the
course book should include to correspond to the learner’s wants, lacks, and
necessities? 2) What are the cultural factors that cause miscommunication
between Korean professional beauticians and English speaking customers in
salons? The result showed that both students and language instructors think
listening and speaking are essential to working with foreign customers and they
should enhance vocabulary. In addition, cultural factors that need to be taught
were decided by the result of interviews with 58 foreign residents in Korea,
such as different concept of personal space and asking too many personal
questions. After taking all these considerations into account, a course book was
developed and piloted and a survey was conducted to see if learning motivation
had increased. I will be presenting the results of this survey.


 



Developing a Coursebook for EFL Tour Guides/Tourism
Students


Geunyong Baik (International Graduate School of English, Seoul) in Lecture
Theatre 2


at The MATSDA/University of Liverpool Conference: Authenticity and Materials
Development for Language Learning, June 2016


 


Positive reception towards the Korean Wave has caused a boom in Korea’s
tourism industry, hence, demand for guides in foreign languages especially
English has increased dramatically. The current education system trains students
to improve their receptive skills but limited attention has been given towards
developing productive skills.
This course book aimed towards closing this gap
and hence, focuses on communicative language teaching (CLT) and task-based
language learning (TBLT). Materials of various mediums included in this book are
not only authentic, they are also designed to capture Korean culture and travel
information as to tailor to the needs of those interested in this field.
Although customized to include materials related to tourism, this book would
also be an item of interest for the general public. This is because the skills
gained are applicable to a wider range of fields including daily conversation
with foreigners.
The presentation will be divided into three main parts. The
first focuses on the objective and need analysis of the research. It will then
be followed by the course book and its curriculum’s contribution towards the
development of Korean English tour guide. The final part will focus on sample
materials from the course book.


 


 


Action Research: A Journey of Developing Materials for Process Drama
in Free Semester


Grace Lee (International Graduate School of English, Seoul) in Seminar Room

at The MATSDA/University of Liverpool Conference: Authenticity and Materials
Development for Language Learning, June 2016


 


This study presents how a former actor, a novice English teacher, experiences
teaching process drama in a Korean EFL middle school classroom. The study
originates from previous research findings that process drama helps English
learners in both EFL and ESL settings to develop communicative competence (Kao
& O’Neill, 1998; Park, 2010, 2012). Knowing that process drama does enable
English learners to use the target language in a meaningful context, the
researcher hopes to develop process drama materials that can be applied to an
everyday teaching environment with history or literature as cross-curricular
contents. She hopes to apply these experiences on material developing to suits
the specific target student, Korean EFL learners: She hopes to include
activities that minimize cultural obstacles derived from Confucianism and other
obstacles such as peer pressure. During the piloting, the researcher ascertained
how process drama can help students with special needs and how literacy should
come before using the drama technique. To refine it, the researcher plans to add
Readers’ Theatre techniques in her experimental sessions. The drama session
includes 8 piloting sessions and 10 experimental sessions; 63 students
participated in the piloting session and around 60 students participated in the
experiments. The students are in grade one of Korean middle school, an average
age of 12.5 years old. During the experiment, historical events were introduced
with the techniques of process drama; Salem Witch Hunt. Questionnaires,
interviews, teaching logs, classroom observation and students’ reflections are
used to find out how the students feel about learning English in dramatic and
historical context. With this feedback as cornerstone, the developing material
for process drama is under progression. (The researcher is analysing the
collected data.)


 


 


Needs Analysis and Developing a Coursebook of EOP in Pharmaceutical
Fields


Miyoung Chung (International Graduate School of English, Seoul) in Lecture

at The MATSDA/University of Liverpool Conference: Authenticity and Materials
Development for Language Learning, June 2016


 


As global pharmaceutical industry including Korean pharmaceuticals has been
extended significantly, activities of reaching the global market as well as the
amounts of export to the EU and US market have been sharply increased in Asian
countries. There are lots of programs and materials of business English, but a
few business English materials that workers could make use of for real job
tasks, especially pharmaceutical fields. The purpose of this study is to find
out the needs and develop a course book with English for occupational purposes
(EOP) based on Content-based instruction (CBI). Identifying the purpose and the
needs for learning is a critical step to set EOP curriculum because it assists
the occupational learners improve their overall language skills as well as their
job performance for business purpose in a corporate environment. EOP is also
concerned with learning the specific language suited to a particular workplace
context and it is about acquiring work-related English skills depending on their
immediate needs. The study attempts to investigate the specific needs through
the questionnaires and interviews with workers from pharmaceuticals sites, and
develop an EOP coursebook by applying for authentic guideline and specific
situations in pharmaceutical fields.


 



Developing L2 Leveled Speaking Materials for Sports
Professionals


Jeong Chanyang (International Graduate School of English, Seoul) in Lecture
Theatre 3


at The MATSDA/University of Liverpool Conference: Authenticity and Materials
Development for Language Learning, June 2016


 


This project aims to meet the need by developing English for Specific
Purposes (ESP) materials for sports professionals with low English speaking
proficiency. In Korea, the majority of L2 materials have been developed for
students with academic goals, however, little has concerned for student
athletes, who have relatively less time and opportunities to develop their L2
speaking proficiency. It results in under-achievement in L2 learning, thus
demotivating learners. Needs analysis was conducted in order to identify the
needs for developing such skills through supplementary class. The material
adopted a learning-centered course design framework by Hutchinson and Waters
(2000), which is solely based on learners’ needs and their own reason for
learning. After piloting with athletes from a Korean middle school, learning
exit point was set: to learn three key sentences from a dialogue as native-like
as possible, for the learners wanted to achieve a solid outcome in a short time.
The ESP supplementary material is comprised of 12 units with different topics
(self-introduction, meeting new coach, dorm life, watching sports games, field
trip, sportsmanship, shopping, training, reporting injuries, weight control,
competition) and each unit has 6 steps (warm up, vocabulary pool, conversation
filed, pronunciation court, review track, snack time). Based on piloting and
class observation, collaborative games, modified back-chaining, shadowing, and
recording activities are adopted, regarding students’ needs and learning styles
and promoting effective vocabulary learning (Kang, 2015, p.94). All situations
in each dialogue are presented in a sports situation, where the target students
are likely to face every day. Also, the material provides learners with
pronunciation tips to promote accuracy of the target expressions, which will be
recorded as a final step. Learners are expected to make a speaking portfolio to
build up autonomy as well as the feeling of success. Further research is needed
to find out whether the material is able to help learners’ speaking
proficiency.


 


 


Developing English Writing Material for EFL SNS Users: ‘SNS English
Posing Style Book’


Songhee Park (International Graduate School of English, Seoul)


at The MATSDA/University of Liverpool Conference: Authenticity and Materials
Development for Language Learning, June 2016



Mobile Assisted Language Leaning, MALL has been featured as 'portability,
social interactivity, context sensitivity, connectivity, individuality, and
immediacy' (Lan et al., 2007). Kukulska-Hulme and Shield highlighted that
published mobile learning studies rarely report using the phone for the purpose
to concern the fact that mobility and portability seem not to be fully exploited
in the design of MALL activities (Kukulska-Hulme & Shield, 2008, p.280).
Mobile leaning in SLA will be undoubtedly increasing, however, there is not much
of leaning material available at hand. This material was developed and published
in Korean market in order to meet the needs of Korean SNS users who want to
communicate in English on SNS. The book is designed for both self-access
materials and classroom use. Frequently talked by SNS users were firstly
reviewed and 6 topics: Food, Travel, Parenting, Beauty, Work, and Hashtag
Marketing are selected. Each chapter consists of 4 sub-chapters, 24 subchapters
in total. This material is carefully designed to enable learners to naturally
learn the skills of how to write English postings as they are lurking SNS users'
postings. Learners who accomplish 6 missions can achieve their ultimate goal of
English learning - communicating with others.

Published Book Title: SNS English Posing Style Book



Mobile Assisted Language Leaning, MALL has been featured as 'portability,
social interactivity, context sensitivity, connectivity, individuality, and
immediacy'. Mobile learning in SLA will be undoubtedly increasing, however,
there is not much of learning and teaching materials available at hand. SNS
English Posting Style Book was developed and published in Korean market in order
to meet the needs of Korean SNS users who want to communicate in English on SNS.
The book is designed for both self-access materials and classroom use, and the
book is carefully designed to enable learners to naturally learn the skills of
how to write English postings by using authentic language input. To enhance the
credibility of the published book, multiple methods were employed to collect
information about learners’ needs, teachers’ perceptions about learning
material, and classroom applications in the post-evaluation stage. The result of
post-evaluation has led the authors to develop teacher's guide to meet the needs
of learners and teachers. The findings from the process of developing materials
will be discussed in this presentation.
