Title

Designing an Undergraduate Communicative English Curriculum Driven by Skill Development: An Experiment

Abstract

Purpose: A Curriculum basically is a set of guidelines or a course design, for different academic contents and chapters that are covered in a particular course or programme offered by a particular institution. However, it covers the attitude, manner, knowledge, behaviour, performance, and the different skills that the learners will develop throughout the academic period. Focusing on the overall learning experience provided by a course, it emphasizes essentially on the mental and physical development of the students. This paper aims at designing an undergraduate Communicative English Curriculum and its impact on acquiring the four skills of the English language in terms of an ideal blend of imparting accuracy (structures or functional grammar) and fluency in English in various contexts including professional skills. A curriculum that enables proficiency in presentation, public speaking, analysis. Thereby the expected learning outcomes can be stated in various forms such as knowledge, understanding, acquisition of skills, competence, process and experience. Secondly the process of proposing a learner-centred curriculum seeks credence in Blooms Taxonomy and its hierarchical components. And thirdly teachers as mentors, guides, motivators supporting students’ academic and social development throughout their academics for it is the interactive bond between the teachers and students that creates a comfortable, safe, secure and conducive learning environment. And finally, to know that it’s teachers’ instructional quality that plays a significant role in the academic success of the learners and their life time outcomes. Ultimately, it’s the syllabus that promotes the effectiveness of communication. Methodology: The researcher conducted a survey with a designed questionnaire to investigate the effectiveness of current syllabus and to promote effective communication. A feedback was taken from the undergraduate level students who have taken Communicative English as one of the electives. Results/Findings: The survey shows that strength of the class is not a major factor that prevents better teaching and learning. Though the communicative English enables students to improve their language skills it needs a revival at boosting the confidence of students. Originality/Value: Given a training, the purpose of education, of a life- long pursuit could be achieved and enable the learners to be self-reliant and self-confident. The set goals require hard work and consistency in becoming a productive member of the society. Research Type: It’s empirical research
