When you are doing DSE under ‘Teacher’s Pick” or ‘Editor’s Choice”, you must finish the lessons that are assigned to you during a specific period before you can work on other lessons.
DSE will allow a student to re-do any completed lesson/s with the permission and approval of his or her teacher. Such requests should be made by the teacher and action will be taken only upon the teacher's instructions. If there is any special reason to re-do any lesson, please feel free to share it with us and we shall review it on a case by case basis to maintain fairness in the DSE Rankings.
Should you have any further enquiries, please feel free to contact us at dse@wiseman.com.hk.
You can revise your lesson by clicking on the lesson name in the lesson list (Select ‘Lessons’ from the pull down menu, then click ‘ lesson name’ to select).
The research and the experts agree: learning how to listen is the first step in learning any language. That is why EB and Fun ‘n’ Friends put listening centre stage in all our English lessons. Students always begin with a listening exercise, then progress through reading, speaking and writing.
Our lessons are defined by :
1) Authenticity
Authentic texts are those that have been produced in the course of genuine communication. Examples include news reports, advertisements, film clips and trailers. Use of authentic texts, such as those used in Fun and Friends, helps students cope successfully with genuine communication outside the classroom.
(For further information on the importance of authenticity in language learning, please see the reference on David Nunan below.)
2) Input
Listening has been viewed as a primary vehicle for language learning, and comprehensive input is a necessary condition for language learning.
(For further information on the importance of input in language learning, please see the reference on Michael Rost below.)
3) Effectiveness
Effective teaching involves
careful selection of input sources (appropriately authentic, interesting, varied and challenging)
integration of listening with other learning purposes (with appropriate links to speaking, reading and writing)
(For further information on the importance of effective teaching in language learning, please see the reference on Michael Rost below.)
4) Listen, Listen, Listen to English
Listening is especially important for beginners. Beginners should spend 95% of their study time listening to English.
