Literature Review : The Role Of Need Analysis In Literature

During lessons it may become apparent that a learner has a specific need that requires help such as financial guidance, bereavement, dyslexia, or help with maths/English skills.

Learners’ particular literacy, language, numeracy and ICT needs can be established through initial assessment, talking to learners, observing them completing activities or using simple self assessment tests.

This book is about the removal of Native American’s in the 1830’s by the government. The Indian Removal Act was approved by Andrew Jackson, and was brutally forced onto all eastern native American tribes. The Indians were forced to move out west and away from the land where they were raised. Horrific times in U.S. but beautiful observations of nature and the Indians interesting rituals were made by Jahoda. Influential, disheartening, and terrible tale of the American Indian removal from east to west. Jahoda points out the senselessness of removing the Indians from their native land and portrays Jackson as being ruthless and greedy. Specifically, this book goes into detail of everything they were put through by the white men. Many Indians died due to the harsh conditions, starvation, diseases contracted from the white men, and the violence from fighting. The Red Eagle incident was bringing in the gradual manipulation and removal of the native tribes because the Indians weren't united: the removal and relocation was made easier because of this. The exile to their new lands were brought on with fighting and death with little remorse by the military. The false promises and deception; the fighting among tribes contributed to the extermination. There were so few American’s that were white that truly wanted to help

Also, since objective testing cannot measure understanding and application on real-life situations, all assessments will be take-home, essay type with a rubric that teachers will provide while they explain about the homework assignment after the lecture (Woolfolk, 2015, p. 579). This is for easing students’ anxiety on assessment, especially since ELL students have language issues and the content of this seminar can be seen as harder for them than what they have experienced in any other regular ELL classes. Furthermore, the assessment on the mock conference will be considered as a performance assessment that requires students to lead the activity and produce outcomes that demonstrate their understanding on the material (p.

In this paper I will complete a needs assessment and explain how I used the assessment to help complete my course project. By doing so, I hope to help the reader understand the process involved in developing a training strategy to address the needs that will be identified.

* Identify needs; normally done before any teaching, agreeing Individual Learning Plan, signposting to other professional bodies. Being aware of your own boundaries and limitations, determining a suitable physical learning environment for the learning experience to take place that factors individual learner needs.

As an ELPT, I was well informed and trained in the laws, rules, and responsibilities with running English as a second language and Bilingual Programs. I screened students using the W-APT screener for proper placement of our EL students. I monitored the progress of transitional students and worked collaboratively with their teachers to offer interventions. I understood how to use ACCESS data to inform instruction and meet the linguistic needs of our EL population. With this knowledge, I was able to work collaboratively, coach, model, and facilitate the learning of adults on how to best use data to design and differentiate instruction for our students success.

In this case study I will introduce my student, his language background; his exposure to English before coming to Australia and his current level of English based on the ESL scales after analysing his speaking, reading and writing work samples. I will assess John’s proficiency in speaking, listening, reading and responding and writing and I will make a detailed profile of the reading and responding aspect.

Our organisation’s scheme of work designed according to internal and external requirements. Their internal requirements such as needing to follow their syllabus, consider learners needs; such as, learning difficulties, language barriers, cultural issues, etc. I need to embed minimum core requirements. Also learners take possession of their own learning, make sense of new experiences and understand how they learn, identify and understand barriers to learning and where they can find support to remove them, measure their own success, understand how vocational learning, personal and social development and when it comes to real-life tasks, motivate themselves by capturing their progress and achievements and helping them to develop a clear understanding of what they need to do next to progress further.

Although criticised openly, Atticus is respected throughout the town of Maycomb.There are very good reasons for this. He is insanely loving, he is very unselfish, and most importantly, he can see a situation from multiple points of view.

Many of their learning needs are similar to those of other children and young people learning in our schools. However, these learners also have distinct and different needs from other learners by virtue of the fact that they are learning in and through another language, and that they come from cultural backgrounds and communities with different understandings and expectations of education, language and learning”. (NALDIC, 1999).

|The initial assessment pin-points the learners individual needs. This can lead to additional support being

Within this paper we will take a brief look at the Language Acquisition Principles and how they work on the behalf of ELL students. We will see how these principles can be applied within our own learning environment. There is much information from Walqui article that gives a brief overview of ELL students and how things looked in the past for these students. Now that times has change we will see how educators can make the requirements for ELL students better and more effective for teacher and students. Hopefully, as we look at ways of changing learning for our ELL students we must remember that every student learns differently. Even if you follow the principles from

 It is important that you identify the needs of your learners so you can design the course to reflect individual differences. Although this is usually described as the first stage in the teaching/training cycle it is a process that may have to be deferred until you meet your learners for the first time and usually should be a continuing requirement throughout the learning journey. However, some organisations interview their learners before the course, or there may be an application process where learner needs can be identified.

ESL students are students that speak English as a second language. Presently, there is many different system to characterize this type of students (qtd in Shi, Steen 63). For example, they can be seen as “English Language Learners (ELL), English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL), English Language Development (ELD), English Language Service (ELS), and
