[Online TESOL] Eliciting

Content

Hi Professor! I’m your online TESOL student. how are you?
I have some questions.

How to elicit ‘motivated’ and ‘deadly’ properly?
Please give me examples.

Also I did final assignment a few days ago but I worried that it will open well. Can you see my assignment clearly?
Thank you.

Hi Woo Joo Kim,

I'm doing alright, thanks for asking!

Let me give you an example of some example hints and questions we could ask in order to elicit motivated and deadly:

Motivated: The word I am thinking of is similar to enthusiastic or inspired. When your Mom tells you that she will buy you a new game if you do well on your test, how do you feel? Look at the picture, the lion is chasing the gazelle because he is hungry, and therefore he is m...m..?

Deadly: This word is similar to dangerous or hazardous. Look at the lion's teeth, they're very this. If he bites you, you could die, right? You would be dead! Or think about poison, it is also very this, because you could die if you drink it. So, we can say it is DEAD....?

Also, I took a quick look over your final assignment, and it looks like a very well-detailed lesson plan. However, there might be one problem. When I was looking over your practice stage, you listed a worksheet, but I did not see one. I am sure that you intended to attach one, but maybe it did not attach properly. I will just ignore this, and imagine that you did attach it, so do not worry about it so much.

I should also mention that you should receive a mark for your final assignment within the next 2-3 days or so. I am currently backlogged with a lot of marking right now, but hopefully I can get your final assignment marked either tomorrow or the day after.

Anyhow, if you have any other questions, please do not hesitate to post again, and have a fantastic week!
