Abstract
Abstract In this article I argue that oracy is disciplinary: it has both generic and subject-specific dimensions that need to be taught explicitly. As such, every educator has a responsibility for teaching students the oracy skills they need in their subject domain; and providing them with the opportunity to practise using them. It cannot be hidden within a single department (e.g. treated as part of ‘English’ only), or treated as an add-on (e.g. ‘academic skills’, taught a-contextually and without relation to subject-experts).
期刊介绍：
English is an internationally known journal of literary criticism, published on behalf of The English Association. Each issue contains essays on major works of English literature or on topics of general literary interest, aimed at readers within universities and colleges and presented in a lively and engaging style. There is a substantial review section, in which reviewers have space to situate a book within the context of recent developments in its field, and present a detailed argument. English is unusual among academic journals in publishing original poetry. This policy embodies the view that the critical and creative functions, often so widely separated in the teaching of English, can co-exist and cross-fertilise each other.
