  • Analyzing the Principles & Techniques of English Language Teaching Emphasized in the Crescent English Course
    PASAA Volume 57 January - June 2019 Idea Sharing: Analyzing the Principles & Techniques of English Language Teaching Emphasized in the Crescent English Course for Yemen Hani Qasem Mohammed Asaad College of Arts and Sciences Universiti Utara Malaysia Sintok, Kedah, Malaysia Email: [email protected] Abstract The Ministry of Education in Yemen has utilized several methods for teaching the English language including the grammar translation method, and the communicative language teaching method. This paper presents an analysis and description of the principles and techniques of English language teaching emphasized in the English language textbook “Crescent English Course for Yemen” used for teaching English for the third secondary grade in Yemen. This paper provides also a discussion about the effectiveness and feasibility of the methodology and techniques employed in the textbook. Although the textbook was designed and developed based on the communicative language teaching method to encourage the English language learners to engage in communication, to interact and participate in communicative classroom activities, many obstacles prevent them from achieving these goals. Among these obstacles are that teachers mostly follow the traditional grammar translation method in teaching the English language and students mainly focus on the final results, 192 | PASAA Vol. 57 January - June 2019 namely to pass the examinations which mostly consist of reading and writing tests. Keywords: Crescent English Course, communicative language teaching method, principles, English language teaching, Yemen Introduction Yemen is an Arabian country located on the southwest corner of the Arabian Peninsula. The system of education in Yemen has gone through various stages and has been profoundly affected by political and ideological factors.

  • Teaching English As a Second Language in Yemen Lindsey
    Running Head: ESL in Yemen 1 Teaching English as a Second Language in Yemen Lindsey Houseman St. Lawrence University Running Head: ESL in Yemen 2 Abstract Situated in South Arabia, the official language of Yemen is Arabic. Although education in Yemen is a government priority there are still many challenges in the educational system. Yemeni students encounter many challenges in learning English so therefore ESL teachers would play a major role in helping out. The main difficulty is that the curriculum in Yemen is outdated and only focuses on grammar and how to use it the correct way. The curriculum does not include listening, reading, speaking, and writing. ESL teachers would need to take into account the lack of resources such as books and computers as well as take into consideration that nearly all people who live in Yemen are Muslim and the dress and topics should be more conservative. In order to be an ESL teacher in Yemen, one needs to obtain a university degree or teaching institution qualification. The average pay for a Yemeni teacher is $150 per month. Keywords: education, Yemen, primary education, considerations, teaching Teaching English as a Second Language in Yemen There is a high need for teaching English as a second language (ESL) all over the world. One country that could use help with teaching and learning English as well as learning styles is the country of Yemen. Situated in South Arabia, the people who live in Yemen speak Arabic. Yemen is an extremely poor country with very little of anything especially resources for schooling.

  • Fast-Tracking Girls' Education
    Fast-tracking Girls’ Education A Progress Report by the Education for All – Fast Track Initiative c Niamh Burke, UNESCO I welcome this report. No issue merits more urgent attention in education than the glaring divide that separates boys and girls in many of the world’s poorest countries. Much has been achieved over the past decade—and the author highlights the policies that have made a difference. But there is no room for complacency. Interacting with other markers for disadvantage like poverty, ethnicity, and the rural-urban divide, gender inequality in education has devastating consequences for individuals and societies. It restricts opportunity, undermines progress in health, and harms economic growth. If you want a catalyst for accelerated progress towards the Millennium Development Goals, girls’ education is the place to start. And this compelling report provides a road map for the journey towards gender equity.

  • International Literacy Day
    United Nations Sustainable Educational, Scientific and Development Cultural Organization Goals International Literacy Day Agenda of the Global meeting on ED/PLS/YLS/2020/02 ‘Literacy teaching and learning in the COVID-19 crisis and beyond’ and webinar with the laureates of the UNESCO International Literacy Prizes 2020 8 September 2020 1 Concept Note Context The world has made steady progress in literacy in the past decades. Yet globally, 773 million adults and young people lack basic literacy skills 1, and more than 617 million children and adolescents are not achieving minimum proficiency levels in reading and mathematics². The current COVID-19 crisis has been a magnifier of existing literacy challenges, deeply affecting schooling and lifelong learning opportunities including for youth and adults with no or low literacy skills. During the initial phase of the pandemic, schools were closed down in more than 190 countries, disrupting the education of 62.3 per cent of the world’s student population of 1.09 billion in 123 countries.³ The COVID- 19 pandemic also affected around 63 million primary and secondary teachers in 165 countries. ⁴ Governments have been rapidly deploying distance learning solutions on an unprecedented scale, particularly in formal education for children and young people. A range of solutions, such as virtual lessons, dissemination of materials, and learning provision through TV, radio or in open air spaces, have been adopted. At the same time, the COVID-19 crisis hashighlighted in many places on the unpreparedness of infrastructure, education systems, programmes, and people, including policy-makers, educators and professionals, families, and learners themselves, for ensuring the continuity of teaching and learning in such circumstances.

  • Determinants of Education Attainment and Development Goals in Yemen 1
    Unedited draft V1 - 130509 Determinants of education attainment and development goals in Yemen 1 Marco V. Sánchez and Giacomo Sbrana 2 Abstract Yemen is off track to achieve universal basic education by 2015 with a net enrolment rate that is far from being satisfactory, especially for females. Educational attainment is particularly low in the higher educational cycles. The empirical analysis of this paper suggests that there is ample scope for the Government to intervene and ensure attainment of education goals. Development of rural public infrastructure would facilitate travel to school, which would prove remarkably effective in increasing enrolment in basic and higher education. Faster progress in building more schools and hiring more teachers would strongly increase the probability of entry, especially for females. Interventions that improve children’s health would also raise enrolment of students in basic education. Finally, it is shown that achievement of education goals would be faster with improved economic conditions, especially at the higher levels of education.
