LYCEES D’ENSEIGNEMENT GENERAL

 

La fin du deuxième cycle de l’enseignement secondaire général marque l’autonomisation des élèves et la maîtrise par eux de la langue anglaise dans toutes ses compétences, à savoir : l’écoute, le parler, la lecture et l’écrit. L’acquisition de ces quatre compétences par les élèves aidera à la poursuite ultérieure de leurs études universitaires.

Les élèves sortant des lycées d’enseignement général seront capables de :

  • comprendre des messages oraux et communiquer de manière satisfaisante avec un éventuel interlocuteur.
  • interpréter fidèlement tout support sonore, écrit ou visuel de quelque nature que ce soit afin d’en déduire le message.
  • lire et comprendre des messages écrits pour l’exploitation maîtrisée de tout document écrit.
  • Rédiger tout support écrit simple et complexe afin de communiquer.

GUIDE PEDAGOGIQUE

 

Introduction 1-The secondary school learner

Secondary school learners have particular personal, social and educational needs to be catered for in any discipline but particularly in the foreign language classroom.

The English teaching practice in Congo has not allowed most learners to acquire the language after seven years of learning.

The present syllabus has to ensure that learners are introduced to all the language skills and get enough practice in each of them, as to be able to express themselves in most of the situations.

2-The principles underlying the syllabus

  1. Students need access to and mastery of both structures and functions. They need an awareness of the language system and the use to which it is put. In addition, they need to be aware of how they learn, and be introduced to means to improve their learning abilities.
  2. Each of the four language skills – listening, speaking, reading and writing – needs separate and systematic training first, though language has to be seen in terms of integration of skills.
  3. Different students learn in different ways and are motivated by different approaches and subject matter. Motivation has to be seen in the short term, to generate a more positive orientation to English learning.

3-The syllabus

The syllabus contains six components: listening, speaking, reading, writing, learner training and reinforcing acquired skills.

1.Listening and speaking

Listening and speaking are closely linked though they are presented separately in the  training and reinforcing acquired skills. The aim here is to introduce pupils to a range of situations and activities which would develop their competence, precision and confidence in encoding and decoding English messages.

 

2.Reading

The reading component of syllabus will introduce learners to the type of texts they are likely to read in real life. In addition, it has to demonstrate how each of the texts is read. It is also to give them something interesting and provocative, to encourage them to be independent and efficient readers.

 

 3.Writing

Writing has been taught systematically and not relegated to homework. Writing will include practical writing tasks that extend and reinforce what has been taught. Process writing will be extensively used to help pupils acquire writing skills, and be able to write all the types of texts that may need to be read in real life.

        4.Learner Training

These are activities designed to help learners reflect on the way they learn. Thus, these activities assist them to do in class what they will need to be able to do outside. The activities will need to be authentic. This authenticity should relate to the text sources as well as to student activities and tasks. The end aim is to make learners more independent by raising their consciousness and making them be more aware of the learning process.

         5.Reinforcing acquired skills

This component of the syllabus is meant to help teacher and his class to focus more on something they have learned, and which needs to be related to real life. Surveys, questionnaires and interviews may be used here, as well as writing a claim, a letter of application to a post, for ex… Scenarios, role play, dramatization using the vocabulary or the language function taught may be used to help learners acquire competence in the language.

4- Approach and methodology

Learning a foreign language is more rewarding, meaningful, and effective is to integrate when the language is used for authentic communication. Activities should provide a maximum amount of pupils-generated communication which would familiarize pupils with the vocabulary, structures, and functions.

Skills may be introduced individually first, but the end objective must integrate the four of them – each may be a starting point of an activity.

The completion of the whole activity is to be a process helping pupils to practice all the four skills.

Pupils have to be encouraged to work in pairs, small groups. They also have to role play and to engage in information sharing activities. Natural and useful language which can be used in real-life situation has to be presented.

 

5-The teacher’s Guide

The teacher‟s guide gives you some guidance on how to use the present syllabus. Attainment targets are commented as well as the specific objectives. The aim here is not to give extensive explanations and the type of activities which may be done in class. The teacher has to remember that it is the learner who is the main focus of the learning process. Any in-class activity has to contribute to acquisition of language, through the mastery of structures, functions, vocabulary, pronunciation, as well as the four basic language functions.

Besides giving an indication of the teaching activities and the learning ones, the teacher‟s guide also lists down some means of evaluating what is felt to be learnt.

The chart down below displays the list of attainment targets that fit the junior secondary school levels:

Comments on Attainment Targets

And Specific objectives

 

 

Attainment Target 1 COMMENT Evaluative Criteria
Listening Through the programme of study, pupils should encounter a range of situations and activities which are designed to develop their competence, precision and confidence in listening, irrespective of their initial competence or home language. The programme at lycée level should aim to consolidate and built upon the achievements the junior secondary school. Pupils should be helped to become aware of the social skills of conversation, for example the use of eye- contact or gesture, the need to be prepared to consider an alternative point of view, to be able to listen to someone expressing an opinion, and disagree courteously…

 

The evaluation will target the cognitive domain.

The teacher must appreciate:

The ability of listening and interpreting what is heard or said.

Pupils should be participating in a widening variety of speaking activities, and grouping in a range of cross-curricular contexts. These should be designed to help pupils to develop their capacity to organize thoughts and curricular contexts, to accommodate wording and grammatical features a

Attainment Target 4 COMMENT Evaluative Criteria
Writing The programme of study for the Lycée level should build on what has already been achieved. Pupils should begin to develop the idea of shaping and structuring their written work as they write on a range of subjects which spring from their own interests and experiences. They should be given opportunities to write for a number of different audiences: peers, teachers, parents, or the wider community.

Emphasis should be led on process writing rather than product writing. The activities should help pupils to see writing as having a number of elements:

-decision making (when the context – the specific situation, precise purpose and intended audience- is established

-Planning (when the initial thoughts and framework are recorded and ordered)

-drafting (when, with the teacher„s help, or that of other pupils, the pupil works towards clear, grammatically accurate text);

-presentation (when the “secretarial” aspects are refined in writing the final draft –evaluation (when the writer, other pupils and the teacher evaluate the writer‟s achievements and identify where improvements could have been made.

 

The evaluation will target the cognitive and psycho motor domains.

The teacher must appreciate: The good writing of learners in terms of cohesion, coherence, accuracy and appropriateness.
