Approaches to NA

Various approaches can be identified to study 

NA

 (Ali, 2011; Kaewpet, 2009; Songhori, 



2008). Ali (2011) proposes target situation analysis (

TSA


) and present situation analysis (

PSA


), 

which are basic constituents for analyzing students’ language learning needs.



Target situation analysis (

TSA

).  According to Songhori (2008), 

TSA


 was used by 

Chambers in 1980 when he attempted to clarify the terminology confusion. Chambers calls 

TSA

 “communication in the target situation”. Kaewpet (2009) and Songhori (2008) agree 



that Munby (1978) employed this model when he introduced his communicative needs 

processor (

CNP

) in 1978. For Hutchinson and Waters (1987) the 



CNP

 marked the maturity 

of  

ESP


. The machine for investigating any group of  learners’ needs had been provided, and 

course developers only had to run it.

West (1997) stated that 

TSA


 was the oldest approach to 

NA

. It was used in the work of  



the Council of  Europe in the 1970s. At that time, the language needs of  the target situation 

were discovered by observing and investigating those situations, which already existed in 

that context. These needs were called necessities or objective needs since they acted as the 

target  of   language  for  specific  purposes  (

LSP

). 


TSA

 works at different points to identify 

priorities regarding the language to be taught (English, German, French, etc.), the skills in the 

chosen language (reading, speaking, writing, etc.), the situation, and the functions or activities 

(speaking on the phone, listening to lectures, etc.).

TSA


 can best be understood as a term that includes 

necessitieslacks, and wants (Hutchinson 

& Waters, 1987). Target situation needs means what the learner is required to perform in the 

target situation. 

TSA


 depends on asking questions about the target situation and the attitudes 

of  the participants toward that situation. 

TSA

 includes six main questions, which are further 



divided into several other questions. The main questions ask about the purposes for which 

the language is needed, how the language is used, the content areas, who is involved in the 

communication process, the context in which the language will be used, and the time when 

the language will be used (Hutchinson & Waters, 1987).

Needs Analysis in English for Academic Purposes: 



The Case of  Teaching Assistants at the University of  Khartoum

Robinson (1991) considers TSA as a concentration on what students need at the end of  

the course. Dudley-Evans and St John (1998) and Hyland (2006, p. 74) propose that TSA 

involves “objective, perceived, and product-oriented needs”.
