2. • The aim of this research is to have an overview of the needs
and thereby design English for Special Purposes (ESP)

most common activities engaged in by
engineers, especially given that there are many
different types of reports for instance: inspection or
trip reports, laboratory report, and progress report
(Beer,and McMurrey 1997).

53. •Planning:
The instructor presents students with a language task and explains the
rationale behind it. Students are then asked to plan their own
approaches to the task; choosing strategies that they think will facilitate
its completion.
•Monitoring:
During the task, students are asked to ‘self-monitor’ their performance
by paying attention to their strategy use and checking comprehension.
•Problem-solving:
As they encounter difficulties, learners are expected to find their own
solutions.
•Evaluation:
After the task has been completed, students are then given time to
‘debrief’ the activity, e.g. evaluate the effectiveness of the strategies
they used during the task.
