Integrated Skills in the ESL/EFL Classroom Resources Online Resources: Digests September 2001 EDO-FL-01-05 Integrated Skills in the ESL/EFL Classroom Rebecca Oxford, University of Maryland One image for teaching English as a second or foreign language (ESL/EFL) is that of a tapestry. In addition to the four strands mentioned above—teacher, learner, setting, and relevant languages—other important strands exist in the tapestry. If this weaving together does not occur, the strand consists merely of discrete, segregated skills—parallel threads that do not touch, support, or interact with each other. By examining segregated-skill instruction, we can see the advantages of integrating the skills and move toward improving teaching for English language learners. Segregated-Skill Instruction In the segregated-skill approach, the mastery of discrete language skills such as reading and speaking is seen as the key to successful learning, and language learning is typically separate from content learning (Mohan, 1986). Content-Based Instruction.
