User: Caption: follow the [Music] money hello and welcome welcome to input English this episode is entitled follow the money that expression dates back decades I&#39;m going to explain where that expression came from and why it&#39;s important to us the modern language Learner in the early 1970s Richard Nixon was president and was involved in political activity and during that time the Watergate scandal evolved this ultimately resulted in Richard Nixon resigning from the presidency and being pardoned for presumed crimes during that era it&#39;s part of American History he resigned in the summer of 1974 in 1976 a movie came out from Hollywood entitled All the President&#39;s Men and this movie was uh docu drama that looked at the historical events but gave dialogue to characters some of whom were real people and perhaps some of them were fictional the idea behind the doya drama is that it should be relatively true to history the problem for filmmakers is their film making style may not be compatible with the simple facts of the story and it may be tempting for them to embellish things or change things in order to make their film more interesting in the movie All the President&#39;s Men there was a character who was an informant and the informant kept saying follow the money follow the money follow the money okay well follow the money actually is a super useful bit of advice to us when we&#39;re trying to interpret what&#39;s happening in the world if there is a phenomenon if there is an event it&#39;s reasonable to ask what is the financial reason for that what sort of of monetary cause could we discover in language learning follow the money is not so Sinister as crimes related to an election campaign no it&#39;s a very mundane it&#39;s very routine daytoday follow the money in language learning actually makes a great deal of sense teaching people whether it&#39;s students in school or adults has high cost and societies around the world do give emphasis to accountability that is if you&#39;re spending so many dollars what are you getting for it we do this every day if an object cost $100 is it a good object or not a good object is it useful to us or not useful so in human endeavor value is defined by what you get versus what you pay or what it costs you if someone is running a school system they have to have buildings and all the expenses related to the school system they have to pay salaries and they want a good result they want their students to learn the subjects that is true whether the subject is mathematics or language or geography or history it doesn&#39;t matter what the topic is society and the people who run schools want the students to actually learn something accountability requires testing now I don&#39;t know about you when I was a student in school I enjoyed learning but I did not enjoy being tested I didn&#39;t enjoy taking tests some things are easy to measure and some things are difficult to measure intelligence is very difficult to measure but IQ is easy to measure the trouble is societies frequently mix up IQ and intelligence they&#39;re not the same intelligence is is best considered an ability a human ability in this case to learn interpret and respond this is very difficult to measure now there&#39;s another quantity that&#39;s related called IQ or intelligence quotient and that is the score one gets on an IQ test and yes there is some correlation that is someone with true intelligence May score very high on an IQ test or they may not if I took an IQ test in English I would do okay but if I took that same test in Spanish my IQ would be lower because I wouldn&#39;t get as many questions correct because my Spanish abilities are not as good as my English abilities if I took that same test in Russian I would be very unintelligent I would know nothing I would get 20% of the questions right maybe fewer and the conclusion would be that I am really quite stupid using that analogy we can see that this focus on testing students in language learning is potentially a big problem because the school systems in order to justify what they are doing tend to teach to the test this is common for schools to do schools want to continue to be funded teachers want to continue in their job schools and teachers want students to progress in their educational pathway get into University get good jobs they want success and they know that the success of students is going to be related to their performance on tests now I&#39;m not arguing that our society is better off with no accountability no if I&#39;m in an airplane flying across an ocean I want to know that the engineers who Des designed that airplane knew what they were doing so accountability has some value to society it&#39;s not an operation it&#39;s not a mistake but in language learning it has a cost because if you are teaching to the test what do you teach grammar and vocabulary because those are super easy to test if you look at human history globally language learning is inevitable all societies around the world babies are born and within a few short years they are fluent in their language and we don&#39;t see large blocks of people unable to learn their language this language was always taught with input it is when people get into school systems where the school or the teacher is focused on accountability that the focus shifts away from comprehensible input and stories and shifts toward grammar vocabulary because these are very easy to test unfortunately just like the IQ test it&#39;s not the same IQ is not equal to intelligence and knowing grammar and vocabulary is not equal to being fluent in the language the concept of comprehensible input dates back to the late 20th century now in the 21st century language learning is rapidly evolving in order for comprehensible input content to be useful to the language learning it needs to be understandable that is comprehensible needs to be interesting and it needs to be compelling these are the words of Steven crashion the content needs to pull you in unfortunately it is difficult for corporations to produce input that meets those criteria that is economically beneficial to that organization we don&#39;t see corporations pumping out a lot of content for language learning that is like this in the absence of good quality interesting content for language learning some people have had to repurpose other kinds of content to learn languages as I&#39;ve said in another video a friend of mine proudly explained to me that he learned English by watching SpongeBob in the 21st century it is unfortunate if one has to use children&#39;s cartoons in order to learn a language we are adult language Learners or we are young people learning languages as adults and so ideally we would have good content that meets the criteria that it&#39;s comprehensible it&#39;s interesting and compelling so to summarize we really do understand why language teaching has put so much emphasis on accountability with teaching things that are easy to measure and testing currently with each passing month we see more and more content being produced for language learning including in English it is foreseeable that language learning content will continue to improve in its quantity and its quality it&#39;s easy to understand how we got here because of the concept of follow the money now we get to build our future as language Learners by focusing on comprehensible input that&#39;s the end of this episode I hope you enjoyed this brief discussion about the economics and how the economic considerations impacted the development of language learning I invite your comments below of course course we ask people to like And subscribe that helps us
