Welcome everyone, I’m Antonio Domínguez, an student from Education Faculty of Ceuta, and this is English Teaching.
So, in my first podcast, I’ll start talking about some education concepts like input or output activities, learning, acquisition and communicative competence. Acquisition is the act of obtaining something and learning is the act of acquiring knowledge or skills and make them yours. One way to reach this knowledge is doing input and output activities. An input activity is, for example, a reading or listening exercise. You dont produce anything, you just receive information. In an output activity you can use the things you learned and make your own creations. Like we did in our last class, when we listened an Ed Sheeran song with a cloze test and then we had to compose a poem using words from the lyrics of the song. With this kind of activities people will be able to get a communicative competence that will allow them to understand and communicate with others using any language.
And that’s all, thanks for listening! see you in my next podcast!
