I wOnDeR
Hello everybody.I have been checking the blog for the video but I can not see it yet!
though as we have all read the article already I would like to discuss my questions with you
1.According to what was discussed in the article about different theories of globalization, what strategy is the teacher supposed to adapt in the classroom to balance the different learners individual positions towards globalization?
2. Where does the teacher's taste of topic stand?!
If the teacher must always be cautious of the different cultures involving in his/her class, then to what extent should the teacher take his/her own taste of topic into account?
I would be happy to know your idea
have a nice weekend

Questions
Greetings,
Here are my questions for our today's class:
Article I:
1. According to Norton and Pavlenko (2004), women’s needs and concerned should be recognized in EFL education. With this statement in mind, could you discuss the factors that TESOL professionals need to take into account while revising the curricula?
2. Do you think that foreign language pedagogy should involve a gendered focus? If you think that it should, in what ways can TESOL educators incorporate gendered dimensions of language learning and use into their teaching practices?
Article II:
1. Considering the arguments put forward by Schmenk (2004), could you discuss the discrepancies between the difference approach and the poststructuralist framework in terms of their attempts to explain female superiority in language learning?
2. What could be potential threats of ascribing stereotypical feminine or masculine attributes to language learners?
Best regards,
Yasemin.
