Cognitive Development in English Language Teaching by Rajesh Lane (ereader android .txt) 📖

Researcher: Indian Sports men and women ran for the feasible
extent. We believe if they practice again and again
they can get gold in the next Olympic at China.
(K) Performing a play:
Researcher: Can you prepare yourself to act a play?
Discuss with your peer groups and write a play
creatively or one of you can read to perform with
your own dialogues.
Simon: Shall we do like this.. Father and mother. They quarrel
with eachother. The child cries. Mother abandons him
with her child. Father approaches court.
Lini: Good idea. Jeni you are mother. Jones is father. Rubi, you
child. I am Judge ok?. We discuss the dialogues.
Jeni: Shall we start?
Oh! my God please take me to your feet. He kills me everyday.
Jones: You idiot.. idiot..(slaps her)
Rubi: ma….ma…(child cries)
Jeni : I won’t see your face again. Death is better than to life with
you.. (goes to her home with child)
(in court)
Jones: My lord.. that’s my child… Please allow me to keep
my child.
Jeni: No.. I won’t give.. he may kill my child..
Lini(Judge): What’s your opinion on your husband Jeni?
Jeni: He is a drunkard. He slaps me everyday. Sometimes
tries to strangle me. How dare he does this?
So I escaped from him.
Lini : How dare he do this..

Jones : My lord. I am a drunkard. I accept myself but I am a
human being. I have a human heart and affection.. I
can’t leave my child.. From now onwards I won’t drink
and won’t slap her.. Let me be with her..
Please… (all laughs)
(l) Creating Poetry:
Researcher: Don’t bother about grammar or anything.. Write a
poem of your own. Practice can make you better.
First you have to think about the feelings associated with
that context. It is individual work so don’t discuss with your
partner after writing you read your person to class.
Jones: I have written poem:
I’ll never commit wrong to my love..
A sound less…
Soul in soul…
A thousand cardiogram
Cannot understand…
But a soul can understand
a soul…
That wonderful.. beautiful
Sweet’s sweet soul…
Love…
beyond Love…
for my heart.. my soul....my life..
Not for kissing passing passionate
passion..
For this waste land’s thirst
she gives rain as a baby..
gives…happy…thinking… advice… plan…
encouragement…
Then why should I touch her…
that may be a disturbance…
That bird should fly freely…
Should not be controlled…
For my love I never commit wrong…
Her face to face smile.. not cry… but smile..
The researcher used both teacher created and learner created contexts to enhance their cognitive development process .
In the learner directed process the learners acted as teacher. They presented their contexts and solved the problem when they encountered a new context. The mistakes committed by the learners were corrected and internalized while his/her partner was speaking correctly. The samples included high achievers, average and low achievers. By this cognitive development practice they could equalize their knowledge (i.e.; they acquired from others). Students had more to say when they involved in cultural-socio-economic situations. The emergent context played an important role in improving their creativity. Some students were intuitive, some were more analytic. When they encountered new situation they could create new opinion on their own.
The researcher could understand the success of cognitive development process at the U.G. level in enhancing second language acquisition and creativity of the learners. It has been attained trough problem solving and insight-formation. Immediately after doing the tasks
the participants were asked to fill in a questionnaire to express their views on the training they received. The questionnaire is given below:
Please tick the appropriate box:

(i) The course was good
Yes ( ) No ( )
(ii) The course provided good opportunity in exercising our
speaking skill
Yes ( ) No ( )
(iii) The course helped us to speak and write effectively
Yes ( ) No ( )
(iv) Four skills of LSRW were improved by cognitive development
