1
Part 3
2
You will hear a conversation between an academic advisor
3
and a student asking for information about a particular subject that she wants to study.
4
First, you have some time to look at questions 21 to 26.
5
Listen carefully and answer questions 21 to 26.
6
Come in and take a seat.
7
Thank you.
8
Now, you've made an appointment to see me with regard to one of the papers you want to enrol next semester.
9
Yes, that's right.
10
It's the Globalisation and Educational Change paper, GEC692.
11
Ah, well, I know the one you mean, but all the code numbers are going to change next semester,
12
so although the course name will stay the same, the code will be ED995.
13
Not that you have to worry about that.
14
But the content will be the same, right?
15
Oh, yes, to a large extent.
16
The objectives are still to provide you with the skills and knowledge for analysing the challenges that globalisation poses for education.
17
Yes, that's what I'm really interested in the future of education, not where we are now, but where we're heading?
18
Well, you'll most likely enjoy the course because it'll give you the opportunity not just to explore,
19
but also to document the advancement of new educational developments.
20
And there'll be quite a lot of analysis involved.
21
Yes, obviously.
22
But once you've examined how education has been affected by cultural values and socio -economic structures,
23
you'll go on to debate the pros and cons of the restructuring of public education in view of rapid globalisation.
24
I see, but when you say public education, do you mean worldwide?
25
No, no. That would be far too large an undertaking for just one paper.
26
You'd probably choose to work with the education system within your own state
27
or country sounds interesting
28
but isn't it a bit restrictive not at all from there
29
you'd move on to explore the impact of internationalization on curriculum diversity in both developing
30
and developed countries have you had a chance to look at the assessment criteria yet actually i have
31
and it makes me a bit nervous just thinking about it Why's that?
32
Well, I see that the first assignment starts with an illustrated PowerPoint presentation to the rest of the class.
33
I've never done one before.
34
No need to worry.
35
You can get help with that.
36
Anyway, this presentation isn't graded.
37
It's what we call a formative assessment.
38
The feedback you get will help you to finalise the written review.
39
That's a review of those academic articles in the first part of the reading list, right?
40
Yes, but you only have to choose five of them.
41
That first assignment is worth 30%.
42
And the second assignment?
43
There are two parts to that also, and both are graded.
44
Twenty marks will go towards your participation in a seminar, and then there's a 5 ,000 -word essay, which will be graded out of 50.
45
Thanks.
46
Before you hear the rest of the conversation, you have some time to look at questions 27 to 30.
47
Now listen and answer questions 27 to 30.
48
is there anything else i can help you with yes the
49
reading list is quite long where do you think i should
50
start well i'd suggest you leave the articles until the semester is underway
51
but a good preparation would be to look at some of
52
the major texts It's these ones here in any particular order
53
you could start with this one by tower here at the
54
bottom of the page sorry who tower t o w e r 2007 comparative education
55
that should give you a good basis then move on to Elliot educational issues of the new millennium
56
but be sure to get the 2008 edition not the original 1998 edition, because so much has changed since 1998.
57
The new edition has extensive revisions and a lot of new material.
58
OK, so that's Tower first, then Elliot.
59
I think I could handle a couple more over the summer break.
60
Well, in that case, look for Brown's Education and Globalisation, published in 2009.
61
Actually, There are quite a few books by Brown, but I'd start with that one and leave his others till much later.
62
And I'd also really recommend this one here, Globalisation and Knowledge Policy, by York,
63
published quite recently in fact, 2010.
64
That is the end of Part 3.
65
You now have 30 seconds to check your answers to Part 3.
66
Thank you.
67
Thank you.
68
Thank you.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
