ReSIG: Teachers Research! Online 2021 International Conference - December 10-11, 2021
NETRUZ's 6 teacher-researchers have done fantastic exploratory action research projects. They explored their teaching practices and took actions to bring changes into their classroom. These teacher-researchers will be presenting at the ReSIG: Teachers Research! Online 2021 International Conference on December 11, 2021 at 14:00 (UK time)/ 19:00 (Tashkent time).
Who are these wonderful teacher-researchers?
Malika Mirvokhidova, EAP teacher
TEAM University, Uzbekistan
Teachers expect from their learners active participation and completed tasks. However, expectations are not always met and this can make teachers more encouraged to explore their classroom practices. This presentation aims to share the EAR findings, which focuses on challenges related to student engagement and task completion and the ways to overcome them.
Students’ low level of motivation
while studying remotely
Dildora Khallyeva, ESP teacher
University of World Economy and Diplomacy, Uzbekistan
This talk is aimed at those who would like to learn how to increase students’ motivation to study online. I will also share my research findings on the reasons for students’ low motivation and suggest some feasible ways of making them more engaged in online classes.
Making online
grammar learning engaging for students
Feruza Erkulova, EFL Teacher, PhD Student
Namangan State University, Uzbekistan
School graduates are required to take grammar tests to enter national universities. This is the reason why they mainly focus on their grammar development. This research investigates the difficulties students faced while studying grammar online. It also suggests ways to overcome these difficulties.Motivating students to develop
their autonomy
Dilafruz Sarimsakova, EFL Teacher
Namangan State University, Uzbekistan
Developing autonomous learning has always been a core issue in ELT for years as it promotes students with a positive environment, motivating, encourages collaboration, and social interaction. The presentation refers to my EAR results on how to motivate students to develop their autonomy.Strategies for pairing EAP
foundation year students for speaking activities
Ella Maksakova, EAP Teacher Researcher
British Management University in Tashkent, Uzbekistan
Being an EAP teacher at a foundation year program at EMI university in a non-English-speaking country imposes some context-specific challenges on teaching and learning EAP. The purpose of this research is to share the findings on the reasons for the unwillingness of EAP students to participate in speaking pair work activities and consequently on changes observed after some actions were taken.How to develop
critical thinking in students’ writing
Nilufar Tillaeva, Adjunct Professor
Webster University in Tashkent
EFL learners usually find writing challenging due to which they can become less motivated and engaged in it. The research focuses on how the integration of critical thinking in writing activities influence their language development.
