"ELF, Affect and Attitudes in Model United Nations Simulations
Marina Morbiducci (Sapienza University, Roma, Italy) Donna Tatsuki (Kobe City University of Foreign Studies, Japan)
Abstract:
Model United Nations (MUN) simulations are becoming more popular around the world as they require participants to use English in an event that also helps them develop global citizenship skills. MUN simulations address learner competencies such as personal development and the building of a broad and advanced knowledge base, which are crucial for their future life as active citizens who make changes by taking an active role in democratic societies. MUN simulations are also ideal opportunities to experience (and research) English as a Lingua Franca in a natural communicative context. In March 2018, a two-day mini-MUN event was held at Sapienza University, Rector’s Building, Rome, to acquaint students with the MUN process. This presentation reports on these university students' feelings and attitudes - conveyed in written and questionnaire format - during and after their Model United Nations simulation experience, with a special focus on ELF functions and variables. Results of a 30-item questionnaire administered at the end of each day of a two-day simulation indicate positive shifts in attitude and affect. These results are further validated by the content analysis of a collection of followup reflective writings. These results confirm that MUN simulations facilitate the development of learner voices and personal agency; they offer ideal training for young people who wish to become informed, engaged and caring global citizens
