![GARDNER on “intelligence”:
“. . . students will be better served by a broader
vision of education, wherein teachers use
different methodologies, exercises and
activities to reach all students, not just those
who excel at linguistic and logical intelligence.
[Educators must] find ‘ways that will work for

Comm skills & multiple intelligences approach to communicative teaching
- 1. Communication Skills A Communicative Teaching Approach
- 2. Teaching to Students’ “Learning Styles” MULTIPLE INTELLIGENCES – HOWARD GARDNER SHELIA ANN PEACE
- 3. Communicative Competency • correlation between fluency and accuracy • refers to the ability of a speaker to communicate effectively in the language; • to be able to communicate proficiently, not to use the language exactly. (Dr. Olenka S.E. Bilash)
- 5. Communicative Classroom INSPIRED to talk . . .
- 6. Communicative Classroom INSPIRED to produce . . .
- 7. Communicative Classroom INSPIRED to think and communicate in L2.
- 8. GARDNER on “intelligence”: “. . . bio-psychological potential to process information that can be activated in a cultural setting to solve problems or create products that are of value in a culture.“ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theory_of_multiple_intelligences
- 9. GARDNER on “intelligence”: • "the ability to create an effective product or offer a service that is valued in a culture; • a set of skills that make it possible for a person to solve problems in life; • the potential for finding or creating solutions for problems, which involves gathering new knowledge.” http://www.pbs.org/wnet/gperf/education/ed_mi_overview.html
- 10. GARDNER on “intelligence”: “. . . there are more ways to do this than just through logical and linguistic intelligence.” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theory_of_multiple_intelligences
- 11. GARDNER on “intelligence”: “. . . students will be better served by a broader vision of education, wherein teachers use different methodologies, exercises and activities to reach all students, not just those who excel at linguistic and logical intelligence. [Educators must] find ‘ways that will work for this student learning this topic.’” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theory_of_multiple_intelligences
- 12. Multiple Intelligences for Learning According to Gardner, there are more ways for students to learn than just through logical and linguistic intelligence: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. Naturalist (Nature Smart) Intrapersonal (Self Smart) Musical (Music Smart) Logical/Mathematical (Logic Smart) Verbal/Linguistic (Word Smart) Interpersonal (People Smart) Visual/Spatial (Picture Smart) Bodily/Kinesthetic (Body Smart) Existential (Deep Question Smart)
- 13. Multiple Intelligences Appealing to all of the senses creates a more natural learning environment: similar to the way students learned their “Mother Tongue.”
- 14. For Communicative Learning AUTHENTIC MATERIALS
- 15. Authentic Materials Students develop descriptive language, relating “How to . . .” Students learn Persuasive Speaking: Comprehension and Production
- 20. Dr. Rod ELLIS: “Literature aims to make us look critically at the nature of our experiences. “. . . The study of literary language affords a means for raising consciousness about the way language is used in everyday discourse.” (2009: 2nd “Using Literature in Consciousness-raising Tasks” EFL Journal International Conference-Busan, South Korea)
- 21. Dr. Rod ELLIS: “Three ways of viewing literature 1. As text 2. As discourse 3. As communication (2009: 2nd “Using Literature in Consciousness-raising Tasks” EFL Journal International Conference-Busan, South Korea)
- 22. Dr. Rod ELLIS: “Three ways of viewing literature 1. As text (“. . . Deviations . . . breaking of the rules for standard English . . .patterning . . . used to create a measure that is then repeated”) 2. As discourse (“When we see these unusual uses of language in literature, we inevitably make some kind of comparison with the ways in which the same items are used ordinarily.” Any linguistic item has a number of potential meanings (signification).. . . In literary texts, it may be necessary to create a new meaning for an item. We extend its ‘signification.’ . . . its value comes from how that word is used in context.”) (2009: 2nd “Using Literature in Consciousness-raising Tasks” EFL Journal International Conference-Busan, South Korea)
- 23. Dr. Rod ELLIS: “Three ways of viewing literature 3. As communication • • • Critical thinking. Think about the nature and purpose of language. Fill out a form – Write a paragraph about yourself (2009: 2nd “Using Literature in Consciousness-raising Tasks” EFL Journal International Conference-Busan, South Korea)
- 24. Direct and Indirect (Prof. Rod Ellis) ASSESSMENTS
- 25. Dr. Rod ELLIS: • “Direct assessment is where you want to assess whether they have learned new vocabulary or new grammar. You want to assess their actual knowledge of the language system . . . through vocabulary tests and grammar tests, etc. (. . . to what extent their linguistic systems have improved.) • Indirect assessment . . . Using for assessment purposes the same kinds of tasks that you actually use when you are teaching to see to what extent they were able to perform these tasks successfully.” (2009: 2nd “Using Literature in Consciousness-raising Tasks” EFL Journal International Conference-Busan, South Korea)
- 26. Ellis on INDIRECT Task Assessments: • Opened: “tasks to which there is not a single absolutely correct answer or where a variety of answers are possible. “ (Jabbarpoor, 2011) (e.g., “. . . students might be given a map with a starting point, and decide where they want to go, then give directions on how to get there) • Closed: “. . . a task that has, in effect, a single outcome. . . Are very convenient” (e.g., describe a map route and have students draw the route on a map) (Ellis, ibid.)
- 27. “Input” and “Output” for Communication Skills • Flexibility for language/product targets – Dialogues – Student-generated scripts • Authentic materials – Reading texts (for language/context) – Videos (for speaking/body language) – Music videos (for language) • Cloze (gap-fill) • Rewriting (language expansion activity) • Audio-visual stimulation – Games (board games and card games) • Elicit new vocabulary • Encourage cooperation and interpersonal development
- 28. Communicative Competency Competence What is it asking? Linguistic competence What words do I use? How do I put them into phrases and sentences? Sociolinguistic competence Which words and phrases fit this setting and this topic? Discourse competence How are words, phrases and sentences put together to create conversations, presentations . . .reports . . .? Strategic competence How do I know when I’ve misunderstood or when someone has misunderstood me? What do I say then? (Dr. Olenka S.E. Bilash)
