Book excerpt: A guide to program planning and administration of instruction in EWP (English as a second language (ESL) in the workplace combined with varying degrees of general ESL/orientation information) is intended for management and union representatives, EWP coordinators, and ESL administrators as well as teachers. Its primary purposes are to bring together issues, ideas, and work of importance in EWP in the form of descriptions of recent Canadian EWP programs and valuable work from other countries, to present specific classroom practice ideas, and to emphasize the importance of coordination and cooperation among the partners in EWP. The first three chapters discuss the participants in the process of developing and implementing EWP programs (learners, company, union, educational institution, and teachers), program negotiation between sponsor and provider, and educational need analysis. The subsequent chapters on curriculum development discuss designing a syllabus, developing materials, classroom sequences, and assessment and evaluation. A concluding chapter outlines questions and issues for further research. Lists of additional resources are appended. (MSE)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 1999 Best Collection of Essays in Technical and Scientific Communication presented by the National Council of Teachers of English Expanding Literacies presents eighteen fresh essays that explore how English teaching at both secondary and post-secondary levels can be made more work-relevant. The book shows teachers, administrators, and workplace trainers how to put aside disabling dichotomies of school versus work in favor of preparing students with new skills for new workplaces. Within a theoretical context that encourages development of situated uses of language, the volume identifies ways to reshape traditional English classes so that students are prepared to be successful in work environments that demand teamwork, problem solving, and complex communication skills. Some chapters examine the escalating literacy demands of specific workplaces: manufacturing, health care, chemical and nuclear industries, and high-tech settings. Other chapters examine what we currently do in schools and describe new models and theoretical approaches to better equip students for a changing workplace. The book has a wealth of practical ideas for structuring classrooms, making assignments, and choosing materials that will help students make the transition from school to work.

Book excerpt: This collection bridges the gap between research and practical applications by showcasing the latest research developments on business English as a lingua franca and the ways in which they might better inform language teaching practice.

This book will be of particular interest for students and scholars in business communication, workplace communication, and English for specific purposes.
