ELT CURRICULLUM NEED ANALYSIS



What is a needs analysis?


According to Nunan (1988), a needs analysis contains the following 3 elements;
·         An analysis of the learner’s language.
·         Information about the learner.
·         Beliefs about the learning process .
Why do needs analysis?
·         To help negotiate the gap between learners ‘and teachers’ beliefs about language English learning
·         To encourage the student to think about their reasons and motivations for learning English
·         To determine the gap between what the learner wants/ needs to do with the language and what he/ she is currently able to do (Nunan 1988).
·         To inform the teacher’s planning decision:
§  To help identify learning goals
§  To help select/ adapt/ create relevant and useful course content.
·         To find out about your student(s) e.g. their background, experience, job, intrests
When should we do a needs analysis?
·         Before a course.
·         The first day of the course.
·         Every activity/ lesson.
What to include in a needs analysis at the beginning of a course?
·         Previous/ background.
·         Motivation
