 Part 1: Introduction

Teaching exam classes, in my 10 years of experience, has been a challenging, enjoyable

and satisfying experience, which is one reason I chose to focus my research on this area.
A second reason is that I would like to inform myself on how best to develop my students'
skills in order to enable them to both pass the exam and improve in their overall
proficiency in English. Finally, I would like to find out the best way to plan, design and
execute exam preparation courses since this is an area I would like to pursue further.

Key Issues (K) and Implications for Course Design

K1. Motivation
Motivation tends to be at a high level at the beginning of an exam course and is
predominantly extrinsic (externally inspired) (Gillis 2017, Burgess and Head 2005:1), with
reasons varying from pressure from parents and employers, to gaining entry to an English-
medium university (May 2005:3). The fact that all students share a common goal also
works to foster motivation. However, demotivation is prone to set in when learners lose
energy or become burnt out due to the limited nature of exam courses and constant
repetition of exam practice, possibly compounded by poor results (Burgess and Head
2005:8).

Implications
 I share Gillis's (2017) view that a variety of engaging course materials, in line with
learners' interests, would help to keep motivation levels high.
 A new concept to me, despite being aware of the ebb and flow of learner motivation,
is to bear this in mind in the pacing of the course (Burgess and Head 2005:8).
Starting with 'easier' tasks and increasing difficulty as the course progresses is one
good idea.

K2. Backwash
Backwash, the “effect of testing on teaching and learning” (Hughes 1989:1), can have
either a positive or negative effect on exam classes (Prodromou 1995) and influences all
aspects of exam teaching. Despite most examination boards striving “to encourage
positive learning... and achieve a positive impact” (UCLES 2016:2), my experience has
been largely negative. Exam requirements and criteria as well as exam-style tasks
dominate both teacher and learner priorities and, as Gillis points out, lead to “anxiety and
stress” (2017) for all involved.

Though exams have changed since Prodromou's 1995 article, becoming more
communicative with fewer decontextualised sentences, many teachers still feel ‘trapped’
by the process and sacrifice more “communicative methodologies”, their lessons tending
to “imitate the exam” (May 2009:4). In my opinion, this is because of a combination of time
constraints, seeking to help students avoid common pitfalls (e.g. poor time-management),
and learner expectations.

Implications
 Seek to achieve positive backwash by implementing more communicative styles of
exam practice to be found in resources like May (2009) and ETpedia Exams (2018).
 The suggestion by Burgess and Head (2005:1) and Prodromou (1995) to inject
some fun into the class is an idea I fully support and have implemented in the past.

K3. Teaching vs. Testing
As Hughes (2010:2) points out, the “proper relationship between teaching and testing is...
partnership”. However, this is usually not the case in my experience. Exam classes tend to
be heavy on exam practice with some teaching 'squeezed' in. One influencing factor is the
length of the course; the shorter the course, the more testing (i.e. exam practice and rubric
training) there must be to meet learner expectations (Gillis 2017). Conversely, longer
courses tend to include a majority of learners who are not at exam level, which results in
more teaching (i.e. language input and skills development) to ensure learners are at the
required level for the exam (Burgess and Head 2005:12). Nevertheless, a variety of
testing, including mock exams, is necessary to reduce exam-day stress and fully equip
learners in systems, skills, and exam techniques (e.g. rubric training) (Harmer 2005:331).

Implications
 As Petrie (2017) points out, without a “developmental aim”, testing and doing exam
tasks is largely useless without concentrated effort on the part of the teacher to lead
the learners to reflect on their answers and learn from their errors. Therefore, time
needs to be built in to the course for this to occur.
 Teaching needs to dominate so that students improve in communicative
competence as well as be exam ready (May 2009).

K4. Skills vs. Systems

What I have found when teaching exam preparation courses is that there is often a limit on
the time available, which is part of the issue of the teaching/testing balance. Another
balance which is difficult to strike is how much to focus on skills and systems. It is
assumed that learners enrolled in an exam class are at the level required of the exam, but
this is often not the case (Burgess and Head 2005:12). Weighting of skills and systems
also depends on the type of exam. Many exams are skills-based and the tendency is to
devote the majority of teaching time to developing skills with little time for remedial or
consolidation work on systems, particularly grammar and vocabulary (Harmer 2005:332).
As I have seen, in order for students to be fully “exam ready”, they need a “thorough
grounding” (May 2009:5) in both skills and systems, which will both rectify basic systems
problems and improve their overall skills competence.

Implications
 Learner needs in both skills and systems have to be taken into account when trying
to achieve this balance (Burgess and Head 2005:1); a good diagnostic test at the
start of the course will reveal areas to prioritise (Hughes 2015:15).
 Skills and systems should be integrated more (Gillis 2017; May 2009), e.g. using
listening transcripts to input more grammar and lexis.

K5. Learner Autonomy

What I have failed to do, but the literature stresses, is impress on learners that they should
be more independent learners to increase their chances of exam success. Not only do
exams demand more from students than can be covered in the insufficient class hours
(Gillis 2017), but doing a lot of homework (such as reading and writing tasks) is a vital and
necessary component of preparing for exams (May 2009:5).

Implications
 As fostering learner autonomy involves equipping students to exploit the resources
available to them (dictionaries, exam practice websites, etc.) (Harmer 2005:332),

Stephanie Peer Teaching Exam Classes 2

 time on the course must be dedicated to do this (Hunt 2009).
 More time has to be allocated to learner training for students whose cultures have
teacher-centred classes (Gillis 2017).

Needs Analysis (NA)

NA is the “process of specifying... learners' needs in advance of designing a course for
them” (Thornbury 2006:142). Through conducting NAs for exam classes, I have seen, like
Davies (2006) and Seedhouse (1995), how it leads to more specific action plans and a
more personal approach to your learners.

NA Tools
To collect both subjective (non-quantifiable) and objective (quantifiable) data, I used:
 self-created NA questionnaire (Appendix 3) asking students about:
◦ motivation/reason for doing the exam
◦ knowledge of the exam
◦ desires for the course
◦ perceived strengths and weaknesses
 MI questionnaire (Appendix 4) adapted from the internet (I used a Multiple
Intelligences (MI) questionnaire because, like Puchta (2005), I have observed my
students using different strategies to complete tasks).
Both questionnaires were completed for homework, which was time efficient.

NA Results (Appendix 2.1 and 2.2)

 Motivation: 3 extrinsic/1 intrinsic
 English used daily outside of class
 Students have almost no knowledge of the examination
 Most desired skill: speaking; least desired: listening
 Perceived strengths: Grammar, Writing, Reading, Vocabulary, Speaking
 Perceived weaknesses: Listening, Speaking, Writing
 MI strengths of the group are Intrapersonal, Interpersonal and Musical intelligences

Diagnostic Test (DT)

Stephanie Peer Teaching Exam Classes 4

For further objective data, I used a Diagnostic Test (Appendix 5), which Hughes (1989:14)
defines as a means to identify students' strengths and weaknesses.

DT Tools
As learners are preparing for the FCE exam, I used parts of the sample exam from the
FCE Handbook for Teachers (2016).
Reading Part 3: Vocabulary (word formation) NA: Vocabulary a perceived strength of 1
Part 5: Reading sub-skills (multiple student; a variety of reading sub-skills
choice) were chosen by students.
Writing Part 1: Essay NA: 3/4 students chose structuring an
essay as a desire for course.

both speaking tasks.

 Reading and writing tasks were set for homework.

 Listening and speaking tasks were formal tests (done under exam conditions).
 Speaker tasks were recorded to ensure marker reliability (dependability).
 Validity is high for all tasks, as they all test what they are supposed to test.
 Speaking and writing tasks marked based on marker judgment, but reliability
increased through criterion-referencing (Appendix 6), which provided clear banded
criteria for each area.
 Reading and listening were marked objectively, as the correct answers were
provided (Appendix 6).

The most notable weaknesses indicated by the DT are reading and listening sub-skills, as
well as the use of linking devices in both writing and speaking. To ensure proper coverage
of the issues identified, the course (30 hours) will focus on developing reading and
listening skills, using the texts and transcripts to raise awareness of the use of
collocations, word families and linking devices.

 Part 3: Course Proposal

Course Planning
A course is “a series of teaching-learning experiences” (Hutchison and Waters in Graves
2004:3) with the aim of facilitating specific knowledge. Students' identified needs, content,
objectives and assessment are all connected factors which, according to Graves (2000),
are subject to change as the course progresses, which was new to me as I have mainly
worked in institutions with rigid plans. Learning that a course plan should be evaluated and
redesigned once it has been taught (Hedge 2000) was encouraging.

Though learner needs are an important consideration in narrowing the focus of the course,
the exam itself should be a priority (Burgess and Head 2005).

Course Plan (Appendix 1)

Graves (2000:75) defines course goals as a way of expressing the “main purposes and
intended outcomes”; they are the final point towards which you lead your students.
Objectives, on the other hand, are the steps you need to take to get your students to their
final point. This course will be a 30-hour course comprising of 20x1½ hour classes.

Goals (G) and Objectives (O)

Goal 1 (G1): To develop students' bottom-up reading (R) skills and strategies to enable them to
complete FCE reading tasks successfully.

Objectives
R1: Improve ability to scan and skim text for specific information (P1a)

R2: Learn characteristics of texts (structure and organisation) (P1b)

R2i: Learn to recognise the patterns of different genres, e.g. use of topic sentences in discursive texts
(P1b)
R2ii: Learn how cohesive devices are used in texts (P1c)

R3: Identify tone/attitude/opinion in texts (P2a/P2b)

R3i: Learn different modal expressions, adverbs and adjectives that show tone/attitude/opinion
(P2a/P2b)
Goal 2 (G2): To improve students' ability to tackle FCE listening (L) through developing bottom-
up strategies and sub-skills.

Objectives
L1: Learn key word and syllable stress patterns to identify important/specific information in listening
(P3a//P6b)
L1i: Learn which types of words are normally stressed in utterances (P3a)

L2: Focus on the use of intonation and tonic stress to convey meaning (P4a)

L3: Build on students' ability to recognise synonyms and paraphrases (P3b/P4b/P5d)

Lexis (LX) (G1 and G2)

Objectives
LX1: Train students to use surrounding words in text/transcript to deduce the meaning of unknown
words (P2b/P4b/P6b)
LX2: Use of affixation to change/identify meaning of words (P5c/P6b)
LX3: Vocabulary building – word families and collocations (P5a/P5b/P6b)
LX4: Training in recognising and using synonyms and paraphrases (P5d/P2b/P3b/P4b/P6b)

Stephanie Peer Teaching Exam Classes 7

Exam Technique (ET) (G1 and G2)

Objectives
ET1: Learn to identify key words in rubric that indicate task requirements (P6a)
ET2: Training in time management (exam practice) (P6c)
ET3: Identifying distractors (P6b)

Syllabus
A syllabus is a means of organising, selecting and grading the contents of a course
(Nunan 1988) and I have chosen to use a process-oriented (focussing on how
goals/objectives are met), topic-based (the topic/theme decides the language and
structures focussed on in a class), skills-based (focusing on a gradual development of
skills) syllabus. The process-oriented and skills-based syllabus allows students to focus on
the methods they need to achieve their desired outcomes (improving in reading and
listening skills) (Ifthikar 2011) and a topic-based syllabus is a good way to organise the
course, as some of these topics will come up in the exam.

Content and Teaching Approach

As the course aims to develop skills, using a Test-Teach-Test (teaching depends on
performance of 'test' (Thornbury 2006)) method seems most appropriate. This would
enable the teacher to address vocabulary and grammar issues as they come up in the
lesson, which allows for the lesson itself to remain focussed on developing skills.

Developing learner autonomy (K5) will also be a focus on the course. One major reason
for this is time, as most courses do not allow for everything needed for the exam to be
covered in class (Burgess and Head 2005:23). Equipping learners to take on more
responsibility for their learning will also enable them to test out strategies introduced for
themselves, reflect on their learning and evaluate their own progress (Cotterall 2000).
Furthermore, along with the overall goals of the course, learners can set small, achievable
goals for themselves throughout the course, which will increase motivation (K1).

Sequencing
As well as syllabus type, another “organising principle” (Graves 2000:125) is how to
sequence the course. Sequencing decides “the order in which... content will be taught”
(Nunan 1988:159). The principles I have chosen in my course design are moving from
'easier' skills/strategies to more 'difficult' ones and recycling some strategies, e.g. LX3 and
LX4 (lesson 1) build on L3 (lesson 2) and these develop students' ability for ET1 and ET3
(lessons 1&2). Thus, they are principles set right from the beginning of the course.

Typical Activities
One recurring activity is lesson reflections (Appendix 11), which will take place every
Wednesday until lesson 14, when lesson content will focus primarily on exam practice and
reflections will take place every lesson.

Another activity, which will be done for homework, is the reading and listening log (set
every Wednesday and submitted every Monday to ensure completion). The log aims to
motivate students to read and listen extensively outside class with reflection questions and
vocabulary building exercises to increase proficiency in these areas (Appendix 7.1 and
7.2). The log also ensures that there will be sufficient skills work to consolidate the
systems work on the course (K4). Furthermore, the vocabulary building work will contribute
to the development of students’ lexical knowledge, which will aid students in completing

Stephanie Peer Teaching Exam Classes 8

FCE reading and listening tasks (G1 & G2).

Course Materials
Students will be using Objective First (4th Ed.) by Capel and Sharp because they have to
buy this for the course. The advantages of using this coursebook are that it is geared to
the exam, it has exam practice activities with tips, and exercises are already arranged
according to topic. Coursebook activities can be supplemented and built on with further
practice exercises from ETpedia Exams (2018), as well as strategy-specific tasks from
Nuttall (Teaching Reading Skills in a Foreign Language (1996)) and examenglish.com.

Constraints
 Classes start at 9 a.m. and 3 of the 4 students have children who are still at school,
so they will be late some or most of the time.
 Since the classes are based around a course book and time for the course is
limited, teachers may feel restricted by the book.
 Teachers may not have sufficient time to create their own materials.

 Part 4: Assessment

Assessment is defined as “a process of determining and passing judgment on students'

learning potential and performance” (Hedge 2000:351). Two forms of assessment will be
used – formative (FA) and summative (SA). FA, which investigates the progress of
learners throughout the course (Hughes 1989), can also be used by the teacher to
determine how the focus of the course is meeting learner needs and to make changes
according to results (Allan 1999). Conversely, SA aims to measure the final achievement
of learners at the end of the course, is usually formal in nature (Stoynoff 2012), and
measures the overall effectiveness of the course.

FA Tools
In order to strike a teaching and testing balance (K2) and promote learner autonomy (K5), learners
will be trained to assess themselves, keep a reading and listening log (in which there will be specific
questions to answer regarding what has been read/listened to), and engage in group projects in
which they write test items for each other.

Peer Assessment - Students in pairs write tasks for each other Lesson 4 R1 L1 L2 ET1
(Lesson 4: Reading and Use of English Part Lesson 8 ET3
7) (homework)
(Lesson 8: Listening Part 1)

My choices were made because of the notable benefits of self- and peer-assessment such
as:
 enabling learners to take ownership of their course (Stoynoff 2012), which
increases motivation (K1)
 focusing students on the process of learning instead of simply on marks attained
(Bowler and Parminter 1997)
 enabling reflection on activities (Harris 1997)
 working with learners towards to their goals (Baxter 1997) and
 the logs will be a means for learners and the teacher to monitor progress (Kemp
2010).

In addition to the tools above, learners will work on individual tasks from FCE-style tasks
from the coursebook to deal with specific reading and listening strategies, as well as
development of lexis. Results from these exercises (Appendix 7.3) will provide additional
information for the teacher about what to omit, add or review in upcoming classes, but also
provide another means for students to monitor their progress and consolidate their

Stephanie Peer Teaching Exam Classes 10

knowledge on strategies they employ to complete the tasks (Harris 1997). This will also
meet the expectations of learners on an exam course, who expect the course to consist of
regular exam practice (Burgess and Head 2005). Space has also been made in the course
plan (lessons 14 and 17) to be able to move things around in order to incorporate issues
that arise from FA.

SA Tools
In combination with FA Tools, summative assessment will be used in order to fully
determine if objectives of the course have been met. Since learners are enrolled on an
FCE preparation course, the SA will be a Reading and Use of English (Kenny and Luque-
Mortimer 2014) paper (lesson 19) as well as a Listening paper (lesson 20) (CUP and
UCLES 2014) (Appendix 8). The use of these tools will:
 provide face and content validity, as this is what they have worked towards
(Hughes 1989)
 have predictive validity, as they will show students how they will perform in the final
exam
 provide reliable and objective marking, since there is a key with set answers for
both papers and it does not rely on the opinion of the marker.

This will show learner progress, determine if they can apply strategies learned throughout
the course successfully and provide students with practice under exam conditions
(Burgess and Head 2005).

Benefits and Drawbacks
Since both FA and SA will be conducted, results of the SA can be can compared and
contrasted with the number of samples gathered in student logs, which would enable both
learners and the teacher to highlight areas of growth as well as areas in need of further
improvement (Harris 1997). Combining both to gather information about the success of
learning outcomes increases reliability, as student performance will be seen as a whole
and not be taken as a 'snapshot', which in turn boosts learner confidence and motivation
(Salamoura and Unsworth 2015).

The main drawback of all these tools is that they only focus on reading, listening, lexis, and
grammar, but do not allow for writing and speaking to be assessed.

Course Evaluation
There will be a final opportunity for students to reflect on and discuss what they have
learned on the course based on questions taken from Hedge (2000:353). Students will
individually fill in their feedback sheet (Appendix 9) and then participate in a whole class
discussion. As there are only four participants in the class, this should be manageable.

 Part 5: Conclusion

Course Proposal and Part 1 Issues

By organising the course starting with easier tasks and increasing difficulty towards the
end, I have sought to increase motivation (K1). This is to avoid students becoming
demotivated when getting poor results (Gillis 2017; Burgess and Head (2005). The
strategies and skills learned for the 'easier' tasks will build on the knowledge needed for
more difficult tasks later on in the course.

To strike the teaching and testing balance (K3), I have included more teaching in the
earlier lessons with the testing focussed on the reading and listening log. Testing is
increased from lesson 14 onwards, enabling students to put what they have learned
throughout the course into practice. In weighting skills and systems work (K4), I have
concentrated only on the systems needed to fulfil the requirements of the particular task in
the lesson to enable sufficient coverage of both.

Learner autonomy (K5) is increased by including reflection after tasks and weekly
reflection sessions, as well as encouraging students to work on the reading and listening
log, which further increases student motivation (K5).

By including these factors into the course plan, the Cambridge First exam will have a
largely beneficial backwash (K2) impact on students.

Course Proposal Benefits

The proposal works towards making students more independent learners by increasing
their confidence in listening and reading throughout the course. Incorporating reflection in
every lesson and using reflection questions in the reading and listening log also works
towards changing students' focus onto the process of learning and developing skills
instead of only the end result (Kemp 2010; Salamoura and Unsworth 2015). Furthermore,
using a Test-Teach-Test approach means the lessons will be more learner-centred.

Course Proposal Limitations

The main limitation of the course is that it only covers lexis, listening and reading with
some work on grammar. Though Test-Teach-Test allows for some remedial work on
grammatical issues, I have doubts that I will be able to address everything students need
in this area. Moreover, the Cambridge First exam has a writing and speaking element,
which is not covered in the course. Therefore, students will improve in their listening and
reading strategies for the exam, but not be fully prepared for the full exam at the end of the
course. Finally, though it is a 30-hour course, there might not be adequate time for
sufficient practice.
