Global competence is the combination of
four dimensions including examining issues, understanding perspectives,
interacting across cultural differences and taking action, and each dimension
builds on specific knowledge, skills, attitudes and values. Drawing on PISA
Global Competence Framework, we suggest that English language teaching plays a
crucial role in helping students to develop global competence. This talk
focuses on attitudes and values in the global competence framework. It is
believed that English language teaching not only provides opportunities for
students to critically examine global and local issues, but also encourages
intercultural sensitivity and respect by allowing students to engage in
experiences that foster an appreciation for diverse peoples, languages and
cultures.

发言题目：The application of process assessment to the cultivation of rural middle school students’ English competence
发言专家：Zhang Yanping (张艳萍), Beijing Academy of Educational Sciences Zhoukoudian Secondary School, Beijing
This speech is about process assessment applied in English classes of rural high schools. Based on the data, the author described the establishment, the process, and the effects of the process assessment system used to cultivate the English core competence of high school students.
Through evaluation software, the motivation and reading skills of students were tested. It showed that extrinsic learning motivation was much higher than the intrinsic learning motivation, and students’ skills in understanding the main points of the author and analyzing the logical relationship between sentences were weak. Based on the above judgment, teachers used process assessment to carry out teaching improvement and established a process assessment system to promote English learning’s core competencies. The post-test results showed that the students improved their reading skills in all aspects. In addition, students’ extrinsic motivation decreased, intrinsic motivation increased, and balanced motivation markedly improved.

发言题目：L2 pragmatics: Interface between pragmatics and second language research
发言专家：Ren Wei (任伟), Beihang University, Beijing
Second Language (L2) Pragmatics, also known as inter-language pragmatics, is the interface between pragmatics and second language research, which includes L2 pragmatic acquisition, pragmatic teaching and pragmatic assessment. To date, L2 pragmatics research has focused mainly on the investigation of speech acts and, to a lesser extent, conversational structure and conversational implicature. Although still in a periphery position in second language research, more research has been conducted into L2 pragmatics, as witnessed by a dramatically increased interest in the field, resulting in a large number of journal articles, monographs and edited books. This talk will review the history and current status of L2 pragmatics research, with a focus on Chinese learners of English. The talk will also analyze the problems and research trends in the field and discuss implications for learning and teaching pragmatics in the contexts of global communication and of EFL in China.

Many classroom English teachers often write papers based on their lesson studies. However, there are some common problems in these papers, such as vague or unfocused discussion, too much description of teaching procedures, shallow analysis and lack of logical argumentation, thus failing to convert practice, experiences and inspiration to valued strategies for designing and implementing English teaching activities. This workshop will illustrate how teachers can draw on their lesson studies and write high-quality papers on English teaching. The workshop is jointly delivered by two editors from Foreign Language Teaching in Schools (FLTS) and an experienced author.
