Vocational English: Preparing for a First Job.
Gage, Julia; Prince, David
TESOL Quarterly, v16 n3 p349-58 Sep 1982
In a 1980 Vocational ESL (VESL) project for adult Indochinese refugees, the major issues explored were: (1) What are the language and performance skills necessary for entry-level jobs? (2) How can these skills be incorporated into a VESL curriculum for beginning level, semiliterate students? and (3) How can ESL curriculum materials reflect on-the-job training techniques? (EKN)
