AN APPROACH TO ORGANIZING GROUP DISCUSSIONS IN EFL LEARNING / UNE APPROCHE POUR ORGANISER DES DISCUSSIONS DE GROUPE DANS L'APPRENTISSAGE DE L'ANGLAIS LANGUE ETRANGERE

  • 1. University of Piteşti, Romania

Description

The paper aims to present group discussions as an efficient means for raising the students’ motivation level and increasing their involvement in the language learning process. Problem-solving discussion is a task-based activity viewed as a structural language endeavor, which leads to a range of outcomes for those undertaking the task. An organizational framework plays the key role for determining successful discussions. There are procedural steps of the group discussion sessions: the chairperson is chosen; the teacher selects the discussion topics; after formulating solutions, the chairperson directs the students to give an oral summary of the discussion proceedings; the teacher acts as a language consultant. Taking into consideration the students’ individual needs, we may use some techniques in order to deal with the uncooperative students.
