( NANCY BARRENO SILVA  ) UNIT 8: Secondary:Teens                                      Question  taken from classmate (Byron Soria) Do you believe that teachers should avoid to speak about some topics like drugs or sex yes/no Why? According my criteria is important that teacher has a open mind to deal certain themes as drugs and sex,  because are current facts, these topics earlier considered taboo, it is important taking account because is in the educative environment,  where the learners have more contact with this type of reality. As teachers should inform and and get them out of ignorance and focusing aspects as: What is the drug? What are the consequences if they ingest this type of substances? How the drugs do you affect  the cognitive, familiar and emotional part? inside of sex topic . We must keep them updated on the risks of a premature...

Classmate’s Comment Post-Secondary: Young Adults and Adults

Classmate’s       Comment Jorge Ivan Quinaluiza Diaz Unit 11: Post-Secondary: Young Adults and Adults  supporting about Daniela´s point of view about this video .i would like to say that it is an exelent position because when students get the topics that they want to develop a classwork or oral presentation students feel free and apply all vocabulary that they have to complete the task .then,is more easy to go to the front and show presentation without fear or nervous.  Answering the  question of Daniela   Acoording with this video How The young adult learners can improve their speaking skill? They can improve speaking skills by developing group discussion as the student says.In the group discussion the students are free to express their own ideas or opinions using the lexicon that they are common to use.they are not forced tu use vocabulary that they unknown.Students inside of a free...
Classmate’s       Comment Unit 11: Post-Secondary: Young Adults and Adults  I would like to say something about Jorge’s comment, I agree that adults are more responsible that other learners, because they have extra motivation to do that, for example to get a degree, or a better salary, etc. Also, I consider that teacher promote social practice and Interactive Approach, because the students have the opportunity interact with the others classmates and teacher as well. Now, I would like to try to answer Jorge’s question that is:     Is important to correct pronunciation when adults are developing an oral task? I think it is important to correct students’ pronunciation or any mistake that they have, but not when they are developing the task. I consider that is necessary that they complete the activity, and at the end the teacher should correct the mistake. I think it is not  a good idea  to interrupt them ...
