Activity-based method in English reading teaching in senior high school is put forward in the new National English Curriculum Standards for Senior High School (NECS). With the development of the times, the demand for hundreds of thousands of senior high school English teachers is changing, because educators stress a great attention to the application of the modern information technology and activity-based method. Therefore, around how to apply English activity-based method in the reading teaching in high school, this paper designs three learning activities to address the problems of the traditional teacher-centered teaching and the knowledge-orientated leaning. The result of this study can penetrate the consciousness of practical meaning into the frontline teachers by fully understanding the new conception and implementing it based on their own teaching needs.

This research is done to design a web-based interactive media, for senior high school tenth to eleventh graders, are able to do self-drilling in compound/complex sentence building anywhere as they are connected to the internet. Most students need self-drilling because of there almost no example in building sentences for essay writing in English book for SMA students (Bahasa Inggris SMA Kelas X-XI, 2014). This research is done to correlate how silent way is able to be implied through critical exercises and games. Some data such as literature review, senior high-school English curriculum, English book for class X and XI, silent way theory, and some other detailed theories related to this research purpose are open-coded. The basic structure of the media is defined by axial coding for a prototype concept. It is highly expected that this media is effective to help students assisting themselves as e-self-learning, for they are able to write rich compound/complex sentences in the narrative text.

In this paper I discuss the impact of the Ministry of Education’s new national senior high school Course of Study for Foreign Languages on collaboration between Japanese teachers of English and native speakers of English. In consideration of the new curriculum’s request that classes be conducted in English and its reorganization of all English subjects, I draw upon frameworks in language-in-education policy and planning (Kaplan & Baldauf, 2003; Liddicoat, 2004) and highlight potential issues concerning its implementation at the local level. 本研究では文部科学省の新しい外国語学習のための指導要領が日本人教師と英語母語話者との間の連携に与える影響について議論する。新しいカリキュラムの全体目標と全英語科目の再構成に鑑み、本研究では教育における言語政策・計画の枠組み(Kaplan & Baldauf, 2003; Liddicoat, 2004)から現場レベルで実施する際に起こりうる問題を明らかにする。

The study is designed to evaluate, validate and determine the effectiveness of Basic English Speech Support to the Senior High School, Grade 12, Accountancy, Business and Management students in Libertad National High School. English-teacher Evaluators evaluated the audio and its transcription. The design involved the experimental group and the control group which were carefully selected through the randomization process.

Research has revealed that developing the pragmatic ability is a key element for any second or foreign language learner. The present paper aims to shed some light on the issue of pragmatics as part of English teaching and learning in the context of Ecuador. This paper is part of a research project that will involve public high school English teachers of Cuenca, Ecuador. After extensive research, it has been found that even though pragmatics is now part of the new English curriculum in this country, research in this field of linguistics is almost nonexistent.
