This video is about formal school component of the project ” Improving English Language Teaching and Learning in Mindanao” (IELTLM). Video made by Stuart Leigh of Real World Productions, New York, NY. It focuses on English language education in the Philippines. IELTLM is a project of the Real World Alliance (Real World Productions, Ateneo de Zamboanga University, Notre Dame University at Cotabato City, Mindanao State University at Tawi Tawi, and the Philippine Broadcasting Service).
Thank you for highlighting our work in the Philippines. Over 1000 classrooms there are using these methods and materials. There are a number of related videos that might be of interest: “Real World English on Radio” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iuZKjOVQRgE; “Real World English in Non-Formal Education” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IQaMyIQXuhg; and “Real world English in Nepal”, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BcSCGzkz-Uw. We are seeking partners to help make these materials available in India – both for academic classes as shown in the videos and for individualized/home-study use.
