Good Discussion and natural english interaction

Popis knihy

The text is divided into two main parts. The first provides guidelines for understanding group dynamics, participating effectively in group discussions and being a good discussion leader. The second part provides many examples of words, phrases and sentences commonly used by English speakers to perform a variety of communicative functions, such as expressing beliefs and opinions, agreeing and disagreeing, asking for clarification and interrupting. The ability to use a wide range of such expressions appropriately improves not only communication skills, but also the fluency and naturalness of the speaker´s language. This text is intended for use as a supplement to English conversation and advanced speaking courses, particularly those which use small group discussions as a means of practicing natural English interaction. Although the text focuses on the dynamics of small group discussions, much of the advice given also applies equally well to pair and whole-class discussions. In fact, it should be useful as well to anyone interested in improving their discussion skills in settings other than the classroom, both as a group member and as a leader.
