4. teaching pragmatics

4.1. to develop the learner's ability to analyze and reflect specifically on pragmatic phenomena, to explore the significance of language use in relation to context and culture, to view interaction from multiple perspectives, to draw inferences as to the possible intentions of a variety of interlocutors, and to become aware of the nature of one's own interpretive resources. (McConachy, 2011)

4.2. Role of the teacher (p 102)

4.2.1. create opportunities for meta-pragmatic analysis

4.2.2. scaffold the effective engagement of the earners in these processes of analysis, reflection, and noticing

4.3. Goals for teaching of meta-pragmatic awareness for teachers of English (p 103)

4.3.1. To develop the learners' ability to conduct meta-pragmatic analysis: to analyze language use in relation to specific contextual variables and draw inferences as to the communicative intentions of a range of interlocutors

4.3.2. To develop awareness in the learner of some of the cultural assumptions underlying L3 pragmatic phenomena. This may include, but does not necessarily imply, teaching the culture of native speakers. Rather, this can be understood as developing awareness of how culture impacts on pragmatic phenomena in the varieties of English relevant to the particular teaching context.

4.3.3. To develop (through reflections) awareness in the learner of the nature of the specific cultural knowledge and assumptions that inform his/her interpretations of L2 pragmatic phenomena

4.3.4. To develop the learner's ability to conduct meta pragmatic commentary: to explain and justify one's interpretations of pragmatic phenomena in relation to context and culture in increasingly sophisticated ways.

5. intercultural positioning(p 102)

5.1. language learning

5.2. involves engagement with the target language and culture

5.3. involves being involved with one's own language and culture
