Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Teaching culture in EFL classroom has long been debated and studied in foreign language teaching field. But the perfect combination of language and culture in a foreign language classroom is a noble aim and how the transition can be made from theoretical matters to the active, crowded, and sometimes noisy foreign language classroom is a completely different story. This paper will introduce a new cultural teaching model, named by Experiential cultural teaching model. This model is a merger of Kolb’s model of experiential learning cycle and Moran’s cultural experience, which emphasizes learners’ experience and participation in cultural teaching in EFL classroom. Based on the previous achievements of this field, this paper will focus on answering the following questions: why is culture taught in EFL classroom? what culture should be taught in EFL classroom? what is experiential cultural teaching model? and how is the new model of experiential cultural teaching applied in EFL classroom? The last two questions will be investigated in a greater detail and some experiential cultural teaching techniques and strategies for EFL college classroom will be provided. It is hoped that the present paper will help contribute to a better understanding of culture and its importance in the foreign language classroom. Key words: EFL college classroom, cultural teaching, experiential model, teaching strategies Resume: L’enseignement de culture dans la classe d’ALE(anglais langue etrangere) a ete discute et etudie depuis longtemps dans le monde de l’enseignement des langues etrangeres. Mais la combinaison parfaite de la langue et la culture est toujours un objectif noble de l’enseignement d’une langue etrangere. Alors la transition de la theorie a la pratique est bien une autre histoire. Cet article introduira un nouveau modele d’enseignement de culture sous le nom de modele d’enseignement de culture experimental. Ce modele provient de la fusion du modele de cycle d’apprentissage experimental de Kolb avec l’experience culturelle de Moran, qui met en relief l’experience et la participation des apprenants en cours de culture. Quelle culture faut-il etre enseignee dans la classe d’ALE ? Qu’est-ce que c’est le modele d’enseignement de culture experimental ? Et quel est le nouveau modele d’enseignement de culture experimental. Les deux dernieres questions seront etudiees en detail et des techniques et strategies d’enseignement de culture experimental pour la classe d’ALE seront presentees. Il est souhaitable que l’article present puisse contribuer a une meilleure comprehension de la culture et de son importance dans la classe des langues etrangeres. Mots-Cles: classe d’ALE universitaire, enseignement de culture, modele experimental, strategies d’enseignement

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
