Project Pedagogy
The Competency-Based Approach to Language Teaching has appeared to nuance the active role (or autonomy) of the learner right after the Communicative Approach to Language Teaching, which did not lay clearly the basis for a role distribution. The project is linked to CBALT. However, its methodology is not easy to apply and the distributions of roles not always made clear (the initiative and the managing is the part of the learner, while monitoring is the teacher’s lot). Nevertheless, one can assume that a very methodical approach to the project work can help both learners and teachers reach their goals and objectives.

DEFINITION
In ELT a project work is an activity that focuses on a task or activity which usually requires an extended amount of independent work done either by an individual pupil or a group of pupils. Much of this work takes place outside the classroom.

The application of the project in ELT or EFL facilitates language learning by setting tasks that require students to make decisions and work mostly on their own. Students collect information from a variety of sources and by collecting and analysing their data, they produce a research work that should be given back at the end of a unit or a chapter to show that the students have learnt information and that they can use it

ADVANTAGES OF GROUP WORK
Small groups working together may produce worthwhile projects. It provides the opportunity for students to learn together while sharing views, problems, and respecting each other’s feelings. The teacher then should support either the individual or the group and let them choose the ones they feel most comfortable with.

In a group effort, all the participants need to contribute to something. They may work together on a single activity or they may decide to subdivide the project into learning tasks assigned to each member of the group.

Below is a partial list of activities teachers may assign to group members:

- Collecting information, facts and pictures.

- Drawing or painting.

- Drawing maps, diagrams and tables.

- Writing poems and acrostics.

- Completing lists.

- Responding to questions and interviewing.

- Writing and telling stories.

- Developing questionnaires.

- Keeping a diary.

- Experimenting.

- Role-playing.

- Writing invitations, recipes.

- Setting rules and regulations.

HOW SHOULD GROUPS BE FORMED?
Most experts on collaborative learning suggest that teacher –selected groups are best, at least until when the pupils become competent at collaboration. Teacher- selected groups aim to achieve a heterogeneous mix which consists of various people different from one another. Such a mix promotes peer tutoring, and helps to break down barriers. The teacher may select randomly to form the groups and this way of grouping is quick and easy and conveys the idea that one can work with anyone. It is up to the teacher to use any way to randomise the group. Here are some suggestions:

- Take the number of pupils in class, divide by the number of pupils you want per group.

- Take some cards of animals, or plants, or countries and so on…Then all the animals would find each other and form a group.

When pupils become good at cooperative group work, they can group themselves by interests for self directed projects

THE PROJECT PURPOSES

Its purposes are:

- to help pupils work with the teacher in formulating objectives.

- to develop techniques to carry out independent work.(It is an approach in which indirect teaching is employed)

- to review all the main points of the unit

- to produce anything they are assigned

- to raise the students’ awareness about their own learning process by examining and categorising the different types of tasks.

- to increase their sense of responsibility towards their mates.

- to recycle what they have learnt previously in a creative way.

- to promote real learning.

- to employ a variety of instructional modes by doing independent study, cooperative learning, brainstorming, role-playing, discovery learning, and discussion.

- to give the students the satisfaction of seeing a tangible product which they have produced.

METHODOLOGY
The project work is a task that promotes (as said before) indirect teaching and second, it is a method of teaching in itself. Every project is the result of coordinated actions and activities undertaken by a student or a group of students. These activities are organised into a process which consist of the following stages: 1) preparation- 2) planning - 3) research - 4) conclusion or results – 5) presentation - 6) evaluation

1) Preparation: the teacher introduces the project work and motivates the students. The students have the chance to discuss with their teacher and ask for more information.

2) Planning:it is the next stage. At this point the pupils’ decisions are confirmed by the teacher, and planning starts on the various aspects of the process such as identifying the sources, determining the mode for collecting information, deciding on the technique to present the project, and assigning individual tasks.

3) Research:This stage is central to the project work. Pupils, individually or in groups, collect materials and information from books, journals, libraries, maps, resource persons (experienced people). At this stage some useful tools can be used such as interviews, observations and questionnaires

a- Interviewsrefer to the collection of information from individuals whom students consider as experts on a subject. They are asked to conduct interviews. They have to prepare their questions in advance and if necessary, tape the entire conversation.

b- Observations: the pupils observe certain events or interactions that they record.

c- Questionnaires:pupils prepare the questionnaires and distribute them to people for a response. It could be written in the native language (if necessary) but the results must be presented in English.

4) Conclusions or results: After the students have gone through all these stages they are ready to present their work. to the teacher and the entire class.

5) Presentation:The following are suggested models or examples of presentation: oral reports, oral reports accompanied with illustrations and pictures, or written reports.

(6) Evaluation: During this stage, the teacher will consider the student effort, creativity, use of sources, and presentation. Of course, it is not the product or the research findings that count here, but the interaction of the pupils to complete the assignment.

However, a grid should be set up by the teacher to evaluate the final work, here is a sample:

TEACHER’S ROLE
The effective use of the pedagogy project for teaching English depends on the teacher. From the beginning, the teacher should motivate the pupils to set up the right environment for this type of work. The teacher must also present a detailed plan of action so that the pupils know from where to begin. Their role is

- to help them find the sources that may help them in their work.

- to be the source of information, but not unique.

- to coordinate the entire work.

- to support all the students.

- to provide feedback and help students go through the process.

CONCLUSION

Using the project approach puts the stress on the learner and promotes experiential learning. The discourse generated by the project, helps the pupils grow, become mature both as learners of English and as human beings whose social needs are not disregarded. When applied at the right time and the right place the project approach successfully achieves the learning determined in the school curriculum.



We thank Mrs.Miliani for the tips we have used here so as to clarify some points that are obscure in syllabus implementation

The one thing we are to target is a full embodiement of the main points listed in the official document sent by the Algerian ministry of education. It all relies on the personal effort of the teacher and his/her motivation to achieve his/her goal by the end of the class

I think our teaching , this year , is special. All what we are expected to do with the third year classes is to follow the book BLINDLY, opposite to what the inspectors used to advise us. No comment

Well... I think there should be a smart way to make up groups. I , personally, ask students to group up to 6 (six) members. This allows learners to work at least for project typing.

Thank you very much brother Mr solinet for the interesting topic . This really one of the troubles facing too many teachers especially with over-crowded classes.Personally, I ask the pupils to build up their groups but I do limit the number of groupsas no more than six otherwise the large number of groups may have some disadvantages.(may be am wrong)

It will be something impossible .
The ideal number is four to permit all the students to participate in the project.
The big number of students creates problems and wars among them and gives the opportunity to the lazy students to escape.

yes sister samaria you are right about the group size it is better not to have large groups. we know all that the idea of group collaboration and collective learning is one of the bases of PBL (Project Based Learning )theory , but what about if you have let's say 40 pplz . first, how many topics are you going to assign for ten groups of four each? second, how many sessions are going to spend for the projects presentations? ( and the question is addressed to all my broters and sisters in the forum)...Thank you all.

Sorry DEAREST brother Solinet but there is no choice of 4 groups here in the vote but 4 per group and this means 11 groups. so I wonder how are you going to manage with this number of groups and in how many sessions are they going to present their projects!!! Thank you Dearest brother for you point of view.

I choose four pps per group for the reason of making learning collaborative more than an encouragement of laziness which may lead the teaching-learning process into a narrower concept of copy/paste information.

I always leave the freedom to members when choosing their group mates so as they feel at ease when working. This is mainly a psychological encouragement of group work while learning.
Don't you think this is a way we enhance language acquisition and help our children deepen their competency further?
