Steps of the English Language Project: Making Banana Chips

1. Introduction to the Project

Explain that the project aims to develop students' English writing and speaking skills. Through the process of making banana chips, students will practice writing project reports and giving oral presentations in English.

2. Explaining Project Mechanism

Explain the stages of the project, from researching banana chips production, to writing the report and preparing for the presentation. Set deadlines for each stage and explain the assessment criteria, such as the use of correct grammar, structure, and presentation skills.

3. Teaching Report Writing Skills

Guide students on how to write a clear and well-organized report. Explain the structure of a report, including the introduction, discussion, and conclusion. Provide examples of proper English usage in an academic context and encourage students to write coherently.

4. Group Formation

Divide students into groups of 3-4 members. Each group will work together to write the report and prepare the presentation. Ensure that every group member participates actively in both writing and presenting the project.

5. Writing an Academic Text

Help students understand how to write an academic text, including the use of proper sentence structure, grammar, and punctuation. Teach them to write a report that is informative, objective, and well-structured.

6. Drafting the Project Report

Guide students in drafting the complete project report, from the introduction outlining the project's objectives, to the description of the materials and methods used, as well as the analysis of results and conclusions. Ensure the report is written in clear, concise English.

7. Preparing for Oral Presentation

Teach students effective presentation skills, including how to speak clearly and confidently, use proper intonation, and explain the project content to an audience. Help them organize their presentation and divide tasks among group members.

8. Presentation Practice and Feedback

Give students the opportunity to practice their presentation in front of the class or a small group. Provide constructive feedback on their language usage, clarity of explanations, and audience engagement. Encourage them to improve before the final presentation.

9. Finalizing the Report

After the presentation, ask students to revise their report based on the feedback given. Help them perfect the final report by correcting grammatical errors, improving the structure, and adding any missing information.

10. Project Evaluation

Evaluate the project based on students' ability to write a coherent and grammatically correct report, as well as their ability to present the project in clear and fluent English. Use a rubric that assesses the accuracy of language, report completeness, and oral presentation skills.
