2 Proposed Minor in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) 1. Rationale Currently, many SJU students express interest in and pursue opportunities to teach English as a second (ESL) or foreign language (EFL) either before or after graduation from SJU. ( Second refers to a context in which English is spoken as a native language (e.g., United States, Australia); foreign refers to a context in which English is spoken as a foreign language (e.g., Thailand, Mexico)). Current SJU students take advantage of many opportunities here in the Philadelphia area to participate in volunteer ESL tutoring or secure financially-supported ESL teaching positions in community centers and schools. Others graduate from SJU and teach English while serving in the Peace Corps or while meeting requirements for grants or fellowships, including Fulbright teaching assistantships, among others. However, unfortunately, most of these students have little or no academic training as language teachers and, for many, their only qualification for these positions is their status as a native speaker of English. A minor in TESOL would provide them essential training for the challenging task of English language teaching at home or abroad in private language schools, bilingual education programs, community centers, English for specific purposes programs (Business English, Medical English, etc.), and in other contexts that do not require state certification in education. A TESOL minor would be attractive to both current and prospective SJU students. Furthermore, the minor would formalize a specialization that SJU can offer within (mostly) current curricular offerings in the Linguistics Program. Moreover, this proposal falls within the goals of Plan 2020 in the following ways: Academic Distinction: It is a new minor that will encourage students to be initiators, collaborators and leaders as they pursue opportunities to teach English at home and abroad. It will require students to complete a course that involves experiential learning as they carry out an internship teaching English in a local context. This training will also equip students to be globally engaged as well-trained teachers of English as they will be academically prepared to teach outside of the United States, a goal under Multicultural and Global Perspectives. Transformative Student Experience: This minor supports SJU s commitment to providing educational opportunities to students that instill an ethos of appreciation of diversity and preparation for a global society. It also offers them an academic path that trains them for future opportunities through which they may pursue their personal, educational and professional goals. Through their internship experience, students will necessarily interact with people different from themselves and will experience the linguistic advantages and impact of a diverse society. Mission & Diversity: Students will be equipped to engage in their own communities as ESL teachers and tutors as well as to carry out service in other parts of the world. Global & Community Engagement: The training provided by this minor will better prepare students to teach English and have a direct, positive impact on their communities and their world. Rather than their status as a native speaker of English, students will receive pedagogical training that genuinely helps prepare them to serve learners of English. 2
3 2. Description of the Proposed Curriculum Requirements A TESOL minor, consisting of 6 courses (18 credits), would be based on courses offered in Linguistics. Required courses would include the following: these 3 specific courses: LIN 2xx English Grammar for TESOL LIN 301 Teaching Language At Home and Abroad LIN 490 Linguistics Internship (an English language teaching internship) and any 3 additional courses selected from the following options: LIN 101 or 150 Intro to Linguistics or First-Year Seminar in Linguistics LIN 280 Language Acquisition and Learning LIN 3xx Phonetics LIN 340 Communication in Social Contexts: Can You Hear Me Now? LIN 317 or 401 Sociolinguistics or Bilingualism and Language Diversity EDU 246 Literacy, Language and Culture Related course titles and course offering rotations: LIN 101: Introduction to Linguistics (every semester) LIN 150: Language, Communication and Culture (every 3-4 semesters) LIN 150: Language, Linguistics and the Real World (every 3-4 semesters) LIN 2xx: English Grammar for TESOL (every 2 years) LIN 280: Language Acquisition and Learning (every 2 years) LIN 3xx: Phonetics (every 3 years) LIN 301: Teaching Language at Home and Abroad (every 2 years) LIN 317: Sociolinguistics (every 3 years) LIN 340: Communication in Social Contexts: Can You Hear Me Now? (every 2 years) LIN 401: Bilingualism and Language Diversity (every 3 years) LIN 490: Linguistics Internship (a supervised English language teaching internship offered whenever needed; students would complete this requirement last; i.e., after having completed the other minor requirements. LIN 490 is the only LIN course with prerequisites.) EDU 246: Literacy, Language and Culture (every semester) New courses to be developed: LIN 2xx English Grammar for TESOL (to be developed during Fall 2012 by Dr. Jennifer Ewald; this course will likely be staffed by an adjunct from the English Department or hired by the Linguistics Program) LIN 3xx Phonetics (to be developed during Summer 2013 by Dr. Elaine Shenk) Model program for a student in this program (LIN xxx represents an option above): Freshmen Sophomore Junior Senior LIN 101/301 LIN 101/301 LIN xxx LIN 490 LIN 2xx LIN xxx It is expected that the required courses will be able to accommodate any increase in enrollments and they are offered on a sufficiently regular basis for students to complete a TESOL minor in 3-4 years. 3
4 Associated faculty: All LIN courses will be taught by Dr. Jennifer Ewald and Dr. Elaine Shenk and one adjunct (in the case of LIN 2xx English Grammar for TESOL). Though interdisciplinary in nature, the Linguistics Program does not currently have an Advisory Board. It operates as a curricular program within the Department of Modern & Classical Languages. Relationship between this program and existing programs/departments at SJU: This proposed minor in TESOL and the existing minor in Linguistics have different curricular requirements: Proposed TESOL requirements: Existing LIN minor requirements: LIN 2xx English Grammar for TESOL LIN 101 and LIN 301 Teaching Language At Home and Abroad 5 additional LIN courses LIN 490 Linguistics Internship (any 5 LIN courses count; and any 3 courses from the following options: see complete list of LIN LIN 101 or 150 Intro to Linguistics or FYS in Linguistics course offerings on p. 5) LIN 280 Language Acquisition and Learning LIN 3xx Phonetics LIN 340 Communication in Social Contexts LIN 317 or 401 Sociolinguistics or Bilingualism and Language Diversity Differences between the existing Linguistics minor and the proposed TESOL minor: The existing Linguistics minor and the proposed TESOL minor are significantly different in the following ways: 1. A Linguistics minor does not prepare students to teach any content area or any language; a TESOL minor prepares students to teach the English language in particular contexts (but does not provide official certification). 2. A Linguistics minor provides students with a broad introduction to the field of Linguistics including both theoretical and applied subfields; a TESOL minor focuses specifically on the development of students knowledge and skills in one particular area within Applied Linguistics, specifically English language teaching. 3. A Linguistics minor receives specific academic training that prepares her/him to pursue graduate studies in subfields of Linguistics such as Pragmatics, Psycholinguistics, Second Language Acquisition, Sociolinguistics, Linguistic Anthropology, Phonetics, etc. and benefits from a broader, undergraduate-level preparation; a TESOL minor would be much better prepared than a Linguistics minor to pursue an MA or PhD in the specific area of English language teaching. Thus, while there is some permitted curricular overlap between the two minors, they offer students different advantages and academic/professional training. This proposal is to add a new minor in TESOL; the existing minor in Linguistics would remain unchanged. A student who satisfies the requirements for a TESOL minor would not simultaneously earn a Linguistics minor. If a student wanted to pursue a double minor in both fields, s/he would be required to satisfy the requirements for each minor and would be allowed to double count only 3 courses (as is current practice for a student with a Spanish major and Linguistics minor, or a student with a double minor in Latin American Studies and Spanish, or a student with a Philosophy major and Linguistics minor, etc.). In other words, 4
5 if a student completed LIN 2xx, LIN 301, LIN 490, LIN 150, LIN 280 and LIN 401 (which satisfy the TESOL minor requirements), to satisfy the remaining requirements for a LIN minor, s/he would also be required to take LIN 101 and 2 additional LIN course (or approved cross-listed SOC, PHL or ENG courses) for a total of 9 courses. Complete list of all LIN course offerings: LIN 101: Introduction to Linguistics LIN 150: Language, Communication and Culture LIN 150: Language, Linguistics and the Real World LIN 220: Logic (cross-listed with PHL 220) LIN 240: Symbolic Logic (cross-listed with PHL 240) LIN 2xx: English Grammar for TESOL LIN 260: Language and the Law LIN 280: Language Acquisition and Learning LIN 3xx: Phonetics LIN 301: Teaching Language at Home and Abroad LIN 317: Sociolinguistics (cross-listed with SOC 317) LIN 330: Discourse, Style and Presupposition LIN 340: Communication in Social Contexts: Can You Hear Me Now? LIN 381: History of the English Language (cross-listed with ENG 381) LIN 401: Bilingualism and Language Diversity LIN 470: Topics in Linguistics LIN 474: Language and Thought (cross-listed with PHL 474) LIN 475: Language and Meaning (cross-listed with PHL 475) LIN 490: Linguistics Internship I LIN 491: Linguistics Internship II LIN 493: Independent Research in Linguistics LIN 496: Course Taken Abroad/Transfer Course Other related programs at SJU: At the graduate level at SJU, EDU currently offers a Program Specialist-ESL Certificate program, a four course sequence that is designed to prepare teachers who have a valid PA Instructional I or II certificate to obtain the PA Program Specialist-ESL Certificate. Starting in the school year, all teachers who work in ESL programs in PA were required to hold a Program Specialist- ESL certificate from the state. The EDU Program-Specialist ESL Certificate provides such credentials to students in Education. This proposed TESOL minor would be housed in the Linguistics Program and would have no direct ties with EDU. Completion of an undergraduate TESOL minor would not certify students to teach ESL in the Pennsylvania school system and would not award any kind of teaching credentials. It would provide undergraduate SJU students with a background in TESOL that would prepare them to apply for related fellowships, serve the community in various ESLrelated positions, and demonstrate some level of undergraduate study of TESOL that would improve their application to related graduate level programs (i.e., certificate, MA or PhD programs in TESOL). Advising Students advisor will be a Linguistics faculty member. 5
6 3. Sample Curricula (please see pp of this document) 4. Integration with the GEP This minor coexists well with the GEP. In fact, several LIN courses also serve as GEP offerings (e.g., first-year seminar, art/lit, social science, non-western, diversity overlay). 5. Budget We envisage no immediate budgetary impact. The program draws mostly on existing courses (with one exception) and will lead to no immediate tenuretrack hiring in order to put the program in place. If enrollments are significantly higher than anticipated, it is possible that a new tenure-track hire will be requested in the years to come. But, the program is currently sustainable. 6
7 Schools that do NOT offer an undergraduate TESOL minor: Alfred University Arcadia University Bentley University (but does offer a ESL Tutoring service-learning program) Bryant University Bryn Mawr College College of New Jersey Drexel University East Stroudsburg University Emerson College Fairfield University Haverford College Ithaca College La Salle University Le Moyne College Lehigh University Loyola University Maryland Manhattan College Marist College Montclair State University Philadelphia University Quinnipiac University Rochester Institute of Technology Simmons College SUNY-Geneseo Swarthmore College Temple University University of Pennsylvania University of Scranton Villanova University But, many of these schools DO offer MAs or graduate-level certificates in TESOL: For example: Montclair State University Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) Certificate The TESOL certificate is a certificate granted by Montclair State University. It is primarily intended for students who wish to teach outside the United States. It does not grant certification to teach in the state of New Jersey. For all students, the TESOL certificate requires the completion of six courses (18 credits) chosen from the following: Course Options 1. APLN 500 Language and Linguistics 2. APLN 524 Advanced Structure of American English 3. APLN 532 Language and Culture OR APLN 534 Language in Contact OR APLN 536 Languages of the USA 4. APLN 520 Current Theories of 2nd Lang Acquisition 5. APLN 525 Methods of Teaching ESL 6. APLN 520 TESL Practicum (all the above APLN courses are graduate-level courses) 7

9 Brigham Young University TESOL Minor BYU's Department of Linguistics and English Language offers a minor and a certificate in teaching English to speakers of other languages (TESOL). Students may earn a minor, or a certificate and a minor as completion of the minor occurs in the process of completing the certificate. Note: For education majors, the TESOL K-12 minor is available to those earning a teaching major and leads to an ESL Endorsement. It is offered through the School of Education. TESOL minor students are qualified for many overseas positions teaching English as a foreign language. They may also work in various ESL programs in the United States and other English-speaking countries. Possible teaching settings include adult education classes, intensive English programs, and English language learning programs around the world. Students in any major may apply for the TESOL minor.
