Abstract

This instructional model provides a framework for the incorporation of technical content in a multilevel workplace English course, and a strategy for ensuring the relevance and accuracy of such information through instructor-employer collaboration. If carefully designed, the result is highly effective instruction, even with material and time constraints. In the course described here, for a workplace English course in a printing company, the required technical information was organized as a content course. To ensure the accuracy of the information, the employer agreed to collaborate with the ESL instructor on the materials and instructional strategies. The simple but effective materials and techniques described here can be adapted for any workplace English course where both increased language proficiency and technical information are objectives.
