Teaching with Film 3
A resource book for teachers
of English as a foreign language
(130 scenes from 61
movies)
|
Films
are funny, moving, thought-provoking and motivating. Films can
sum up a problem in a few minutes of well-written script, dilemmas
we face in everyday life can be illustrated in an entertaining
way. In the teaching of English as a foreign language they can
help trigger discussions and writing tasks, be used to practise
listening skills, learn vocabulary, allow students to hear how
native speakers "really" communicate, highlight business
and communication skills and give students a glimpse into another
culture adding colour and life to what they are studying.
The author has compiled three resource
books with 455 film scenes from 248 of some of the most successful,
popular and critically-acclaimed English-language movies of
recent decades for teachers to integrate into their lessons.
Each scene has been carefully chosen and then categorised under
themes. Vocabulary, gist listening tasks, follow-up writing,
speaking or research tasks and references to related material
in standard English language course books have also been included
when relevant.
Aimed principally at teachers of
English as a foreign language, Teaching with Film will also
be of interest to English teachers in general who are looking
for something visual, something that will motivate, something
that will create a good atmosphere for learning, something with
a bit of magic. And that something is film.
Since 2013 the author also offers seminars
on various aspects of teaching with film at university colleges
of teacher education throughout Austria.
Martin Bradley is a film enthusiast, teacher trainer, researcher
and lecturer working in higher education in Austria. He has
combined his knowledge of film with his English-teaching experience
to create a unique resource book suited to the classroom of
the 21st century.
