The i2Flex Instructional Methodology Implemented in Middle School Classes for Young EFL and Foreign Language Learners (original) (raw)

Advances in Early Childhood and K-12 Education, 2016

Abstract

Teachers engaging in the i2Flex teaching methodology employ constructivism-based media in order to update their practices according to the students' changing needs with reference to their education. As a result, students are more eager to learn in a positive environment, and more likely to reach their potential which leads to higher academic performance levels. The authors present and discuss the i2Flex instructional methodology as they implemented it in Middle School Classes for young EFL and Foreign Language learners. Students are active participants of the process. The teacher changes hats from being the instructor in the limited sense of the direct instructor in a teacher centered classroom environment, to being an effective facilitator of the process of education, eventually. The lesson plans change, the media through which they will be delivered also change to be adding to, or even omitting at times, the traditional textbook.
