ALICE SPRINGS June / July 2003 ESL STRATEGIES: MIDDLE YEARS Scales 1 – 13 (5 - 8)

2 Sociocultural Context
Model of Language Text in Context Sociocultural Context Genre The model of language in the ESL Scope and Scales has at its broadest level, a sociocultural context. The sociocultural context includes the diverse range of values, beliefs and behaviours of the culture. This results in texts which are typical of the culture. These typical texts are called genres. In education these might be recounts, procedures, arguments etc. Diagrammatically we can represent this in a circular diagram, as an outer circle. The next level of the model is the situational context. A genre can vary according to the particular context of the situation inside the culture. So a procedure in science might be different than a procedure in home economics and similarly a procedure in year 9 science would be different than a procedure in year 11 science. Three variables have been identified within the situational context. Situational Context Tenor Field Mode site leadersESL Scope and Scales PD Package

3 Field Continuum everyday fields………...specialised fields……highly technical fields One variable involves the content or topic, the informational element of a text. This variable is called the “what” or the field. Fields vary in degree of technicality and it helps to see this along a continuum. At one end, fields are concerned with the ‘everyday’, in the middle, the fields are becoming specialised and at the other end, fields are quite technical. site leadersESL Scope and Scales PD Package

4 Tenor Continuum equal status ……………….…………….. great difference in status
familiar …….………………………………...……………..very distant great deal of emotional expression……..little emotional expression Another variable is the positioning of the author or speaker and the interaction between the author or speaker and the audience. This interpersonal element is called the “who” or the tenor. The relationship is shaped by status, degree of contact, and degree of emotional involvement, as the continuum shows. site leadersESL Scope and Scales PD Package

5 Mode Continuum most spoken………………….…………….....… most written
The final variable relates to the medium of communication. This variable is called the “what” or the mode. Mode can be seen as occurring along a continuum, from spoken to written. At one end of the continuum, there is the most spoken mode which usually happens face-to-face. The other end of the continuum is the most written mode, which usually happens at a great distance from the audience. In the middle of the continuum, spoken and written language overlap, so some texts are spoken-like but written (eg an or narrative) or written-like but spoken (eg an oral presentation). In addition, the use of technology, will have a bearing on the communication. Information situated on a website using printed text, movement, sound and colour will be different from the same information presented in writing on paper. site leadersESL Scope and Scales PD Package

6 Model of Language Text in Context Language Situational Context
Sociocultural Context Sociocultural Context Genre Genre The Language Model has genre at the sociocultural context and field, tenor, mode are the variables in the situational context. Each of these components: genre, field, tenor, mode, are expressed through different groupings of language features. Situational Context Tenor Tenor Mode Field Mode Field site leadersESL Scope and Scales PD Package

7 resources in the English language Field
Text in Context Language Sociocultural Context Genre broader strand more specific strand resources in the English language Situational Context Field It is on this understanding of language that the ESL Scope and Scales are organised through genre, field, tenor, mode and two strands: Text in Context and Language. The two strands are directly related: the Text in Context strand, the broader strand, outlines the range of contexts and texts that learners of ESL are expected to interact in. The Language strand is the more specific strand, and consists of the English language features - and non-verbal elements - that will express the Text in Context strand. Learning about and learning to use language strategies are incorporated in the two strands. In the following presentation we will look at the features of each section of the model and see the increasing complexity across the Scales. We will start with Genre: Text in Context.

In the next set of slides we will look with more detail into each of these. Tenor the ‘who’ interpersonal elements deal with formality, familiarity and attitude the language choices who questions or commands how degrees of certainty expressed.

Because of the links between the two strands, the Language strand for Genre focuses on the language features to structure texts, to build cohesion (that is to hold texts together), and the language to expand information in sentences. We will examine each of these in turn.
