Developing Students’ Conversational Skills with the Help of Movies,

Videos, and Songs.

Part 1: Goal and instructional analysis

Instructional Goal

Students will develop and practice listening and speaking skills by communicating in

varied informal contexts through practical activities based on resources such as movies,

videos, and songs.

Goal Analysis

To accomplish this skill, students to have be exposed to and immersed in informal

conversational contexts through the use of resources such as movies, videos, and songs.

This will make students more flexible with their use of diction and language, they will know

when it is appropriate to use slang or formal language, they will be aware of different types of

metaphors used to describe an event or situation (i.e. this place is a pigsty!) and they will

understand what the conversation they are having is about.

Type of Learning

The type of learning in this instructional analysis is mostly verbal information and as

students are required to pay attention to the way diction is used in conversation, when or

when not to use certain words, when it is suitable to use slang or colloquial language and

learn how to apply all the conversational skills obtained. Intellectual skills are also required for

this instructional analysis since students need to know what circumstances would allow to

use a certain form of language (i.e. formal, informal, semi-formal) and when the appropriate

time to use said language is.
