This is how our TEFL graduates feel they have gained from their course, and how they plan to put into action what they learned:
There are four basic skills in learning a language, reading and listening (receptive skills as the learner receives and processes the information to understand), and speaking and writing (productive skills, as the learner will produce his or her own information using the language verbally or in written form). This unit focused entirely on the receptive skills.
We use these receptive skills for one of two broad categories: a purpose (gaining specific information to answer a question or increase knowledge about a desired topic), and/or entertainment (simply because we enjoy reading or listening to the item in question).
How we use these skills can be further divided into five sub-categories: predictive skills (using the limited information available from a title/summary to predict the greater picture of the work as a whole), scanning (when we only need to ascertain a very specific portion of the entire body of work, we scan until finding the relavent piece, ignoring the rest), skimming (to glean a general understanding of the entire piece by lightly reading it and not intently focusing on each individual word), detailed information (the opposite of scanning, when it is important to our understanding to fully grasp every word, we will therefore pay close attention to each word), and deduction of content (this information can be read/heard one literal way, but based on the context with which is presented, it might take on an entirely new meaning).
