    In teaching Medically Speaking , I suggest taking notes while listening to

    the dialogues or reading the case studies given in the text. Instead of

    having the students take down all the information, teams are formed to take

    notes on specific parts.

    Appendix

    |Instructions for preparing and presenting a case report |

    |First think of an interesting case you would like to report on |

    |and discuss with your classmates. Consult your professors, look|

    |for information about your case and associated diseases or |

    |cases in magazines, books, journals, etc. Note down this |

    |information. Then make an outline of the elements you need in |

    |order to report on a case |

    |1. Patient's |Age: |Sex: Race: |

    |characteristics: | | |

    | |Weight: |Height: |

    |2. Main symptom: |8. Physical findings |

    |3. Other symptoms: |9. Diagnostic procedure: |

    |4. Past history: |10. Differential and definitive|

    | |diagnosis: |

    |5. Family history: |11. Therapeutic procedures: |

    |6. (Toxic) habits: |12. Possible complications |

    |7. Medications: |13. Prognosis |

    Before presenting your case orally, copy the outline on the board, ask your

    classmates to also copy it in their notebooks. You will all follow this

    order for the presentation and discussion of your case. Your classmates

    will ask you for the data they need to complete their outlines and discuss

    the case. Once the discussion is over, they will use their notes to write a

    report on the case you presented.

    Report

    Today we discussed the case of a 22-year-old white man who was in good

    health prior to two days ago, when he began to have an abdominal pain. This

    pain was sporadic and colicky in nature. It began in the epigastrium and

    has since migrated to the right lower quadrant. The patient has had three

    episodes of vomiting associated with the pain. He has been anorectic and

    feverish. He has had no bowel movements for two days. He reported no

    diarrhea, coughing with expectoration or shortness of breath. He has no

    past history or family history of abdominal pain or any other disease. The

    pertinent physical findings are related to the abdomen. There is extreme

    tenderness to palpation, especially over McBurney's point. Guarding, muscle

    rigidity and rebound tenderness are all present. Bowel sounds are absent.

    There is a difference between the axillary and the rectal temperature. His

    urinalysis, hemoglobin and hematocrit are within normal limits.

    Nevertheless, both white blood count and red rate are elevated. His chest

    film is clear, but in the abdominal film we observed the psoas line is

    absent.

    Finally, we decided the definitive diagnosis is acute appendicitis. Among

    the possible complications to consider are perforation, necrosis and

    peritonitis. Therefore, the prognosis is anceps. The only possible

    treatment is surgical: appendectomy.

    Conclusion

    As we have seen, there are numerous opportunities to help students develop

    the skill of note-taking. Note-taking assists the listener, reader, or

    observer in achieving a better understanding of what is presented, and it

    facilitates recall of facts as well as oral and written expression. The

    student's language level and the purpose which the notes are to serve will

    determine the type of guidance the teacher must provide to help them to

    take notes in class and later on the job.

    Grammar games

    Competitive games

    Speed

    |Grammar: |Collocations with wide, narrow, and broad. |

    |Level: |Intermediate to advanced |

    |Time: |15-20 minutes |

    |Materials:|Three cards, with wide on one, narrow on the second and|

    | |broad on the third |

    Preparation

    Prepare three large cards with wide on one, narrow on the second and broad

    on the third.

    In class

    Clear as much space as you can in your classroom so that students have

    access to all the walls and ask two students to act as secretaries at the

    board. Steak each of your card on one of the other three walls of the room.

    Ask the rest of the students to gather in the middle of the space.

    Tell the students that you’re going to read out sentences with a word

    missing. If they think that the right word for that sentence is wide they

    should rush over and touch the wide card. If they think the word should be

    narrow or broad they touch the respective card instead. Tell them that in

    some cases there are two right answers (they choose either).

    Tell the secretaries at the board to write down the correct versions of the

    sentences in full as the game progresses.

    Read out the first gapped sentence and have the students rush to what they

    think is the appropriate wall. Give the correct versions and make sure it

    goes up in the board. Continue with the second sentence etc.

    At the end of the strenuous part ask the students to tale down the

    sentences in their books. A relief from running! ( If the students want a

    challenge they should get a partner and together write down as many

    sentences as they remember with their backs to the board before turning

    round to complete their notes. Or else have their partner to dictate the

    sentences with a gap for them to try to complete.)

    Sentences to read out

    |They used a … angled lens |Wide |

    |He looked at her with a … smile |Broad |

    |The socialists won by a …. Margin |Narrow/broad |

    |She is very … minded |Broad/narrow |

    |He speaks the language with a … |Broad |

    |London accent | |

    |You were wrong what you said was … of|Wide |

    |the mark | |

    |You had a … escape |Narrow |

    |Of course they’re … open to criticism|Wide |

    |They went down the canal in a … boat |Narrow |

    |She opened her eyes … |Wide |

    |The news was broadcast nation … |Wide |

    |The path was three meters … |Wide |

    |The light was so bright that she … |Narrowed |

    |her eyes | |

    Variation

    You can play this game with many sets of grammar exponents:

    . Forms of the article; a, the and zero article

    . Prepositions

    Etc.

    Cognitive games

    Spot the differences

    |Grammar: |Common mistakes |

    |Level: |Elementary |

    |Time: |20-30 minutes |

    |Materials:|One copy of Late-comer A and Late-comer B for each |

    | |student |

    In class

    Pair the students and give them the two texts. Ask them to spot all the

    differences they can between them. Tell them that there may be more than

    one pair of differences per pair of parallel sentences. Tell them one item

    in each pair of alternatives is correct.

    They are to choose the correct form from each pair.

    |Late-comer A |Late-comer B |

    |This women was often very late |This woman was often very late |

    |She was late for meetings |She was late for meeting |

    |She were late for dinners |She was late for dinners |

    |She was late when she went to |She was late as she went to the |

    |the cinema |cinema |

    |One day she arrive for a meeting|One day she arrived for meeting |

    |half an hour early |half ah hour early |

    |Nobody could understand because |Nobody couldn’t understand why |

    |she was early |she was early |

    |‘Of course,’ someone said, |‘Of course,’ someone say, ‘the |

    |‘clocks put back last night.’ |clocks were put back last |

    | |night.’ |

    3. Ask them to dictate the correct text to you at the board. Write down

    exactly what they say so students have a chance to correct each other both

    in terms of grammar and in terms of their pronunciation. If a student

    pronounces ‘dis voman’ for ‘this woman’ then write up the wrong version.

    Only write it correctly when the student pronounces it right. Your task in

    this exercise is to allow the students to try out their hypotheses about

    sound and grammar without putting them right too soon and so reducing their

    energy and blocking their learning. Being too kind can be cognitively

    unkind.

    Variation

    To make this exercise more oral, pair the students and ask them to sit

    facing each other. Give Later-comer A to one student and Late-comer B to

    the other in each pair. They then have to do very detailed listening to

    each other’s texts.

    Feeling and grammar

    Typical questions

    |Grammar: |Question formation-varied interrogatives |

    |Level: |Beginner to elementary |

    |Time: |20-30 minutes |

    |Materials:|None |

    In class

    1. Ask the students to draw a quick sketch of a four-year-old they know

    well. Give them these typical questions such a person may ask, e.g.

    ‘Mummy, does the moon go for a wee-wee?’ ‘Where did I come from?’. Ask

    each student to write half a dozen questions such a person might ask,

    writing them in speech bubbles on the drawing. Go round and help with the

    grammar.

    2. Get the students to fill the board with their most interesting four-year-

    old questions.

    Variations

    This can be used with various question situations. The following examples

    work well:

    - Ask the students to imagine a court room-the prosecution barrister is

    questioning a defense witness. Tell the students to write a dozen questions

    the prosecution might ask.

    - What kind of questions might a woman going to a foreign country want to

    ask a woman friend living in this country about the man or the woman in the

    country? And what might a man want to ask a man?

    - What kind of questions are you shocked to be asked in an English-speaking

    country and what questions are you surprised not to be asked?

    Achievements

    |Grammar: |By+time-phrases Past perfect |

    |Level: |Lower intermediate |

    |Time: |20-30 minutes |

    |Materials:|Set of prepared sentences |

    Preparation

    1. Think of your achievements in the period of your life that corresponds

    to the average age of your class. If you’re teaching seventeen-year-olds,

    pick your first seventeen years. Also think of a few of the times when

    you were slow to achieve. Write the sentences about yourself like these:

    By the age of six I had learnt to read.

    I still hadn’t learnt to ride a bike by then.

    I had got over my fear of water by the time I was eight.

    By the time I was nine I had got the hang of riding a bike.

    By thirteen I had read a mass of books.

    I’d got over my fear of the dark by around ten.

    2. Write ten to twelve sentences using the patterns above. If you’re

    working in a culture that is anti-boasting then pick achievements that do

    not make you stand out.

    3. Your class will relate well to sentences that tell them something new

    about you, as much as you feel comfortable telling them. Communication

    works best when it’s for real.

    In class

    1. Ask the students to have two different colored pens ready. Tell them

    you’re going to dictate sentences about yourself. They’re to take down

    the sentences that are also true for them in one color and the sentences

    that are not true about them in another color.

    2. Put the students in fours to explain to each other which of your

    sentences were also true of their lives.

    3. Run a quick question and answer session round the groups e.g. ‘At what

    age had you learnt to ski/dance/sing/ play table tennis etc by?’ ‘I’d

    learnt to ski by seven.’

    4. Ask each students to write a couple of fresh sentences about things

    achieved by a certain date/time and come up and write them on a board.

    Wait till the board is full, without correcting what they’re putting up.

    Now point silently at problem sentences and get the students to correct

    them.

    Variation

    You can use the above activity for any area of grammar you want ti

    personalize. You might write sentences about:

    - Things you haven’t got round to doing (present perfect + yet)

    - Things you like having done for you versus things you like doing for

    yourself

    - Things you ought to do and feel you can’t do (the whole modal area

    is easily treated within this frame)

    Reported advice

    |Grammar: |Modals and modals reported |

    |Level: |Elementary to intermadiate |

    |Time: |15-20 minutes |

    |Materials:|None |

    In class

    1. Divide your class into two groups: ‘problem people’ and ‘advice-givers’.

    2. Ask the ‘problem people’ to each think up a minor problem they have and

    are willing to talk about.

    3. Arm the ‘advice-givers’ with these suggestion forms:

    |You could… |You should… |You might as well… |

    |You might… |You ought to… |You might try…ing… |

    4. Get the class moving round the room. Tell each ‘problem person’ to pair

    off with an ‘advice-giver’. The ‘problem person’ explains her problem and

    the other person gives two bits of advice using the grammar suggested.

    Each ‘problem person’ now moves to another ‘advice-giver’. The ‘problem

    people’ get advice from five or six ‘advice-givers’

    5. Call class back into the plenary. Ask some of the ‘problem people’ to

    state their problem and report to the whole group the best and the worst

    piece of advice they were offered, naming the advice-giver e.g. ‘Juan

    was telling me I should give her up.’ ‘ Jane suggested I ought to get a

    girlfriend of hers to talk to her for me.’

    Variation

    If you have a classroom with space that allows it, form the students into

    two concentric circles, the outer one facing in and the inner one facing

    out. All the inner circle students are ‘advice-givers’ and all the outer

    circle students are ‘problem people’. After each round, the outer circle

    people move round three places. This is much more cohesive than the above.

    Picture the past

    |Grammar: |Past simple, past perfect, future in the past |

    |Level: |Lower intermediate |

    |Time: |20-40 minutes |

    |Materials:|None |

    Class

    1. Ask three students to come out and help you demonstrate the exercise.

    Draw a picture on the board of something interesting you have done. Do

    not speak about it. Student A then writes a past simple sentence about

    it. Student B write about what had already happened before the picture

    action and student C about something that was going to happen, using the

    Страницы: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
