《语⾔教学流派第⼆版》⾃⼰整理笔记第⼀章A brief history of language teaching第⼆章The nature of approaches and methods前两章很简单,详见前⾯中⽂导读第三章The oral approach and situational language teachingThe oral approach (situational language teaching) is a grammar-based method in whichprinciples of grammatical and lexical gradation are used and new teaching points arepresented and practiced through meaningful situation-based activities.⼀、Background1. Two of the leaders were Harold palmer and A.S.Hornby.2. Vocabulary control3. Grammar control⼆、The Oral Approach and Situational Language TeachingThe main characteristics of the approach were as follows:1. Language teaching begins with the spoken language. Material is taught orally.2. The target language is the language of the classroom.3. New language points are introduced and practiced situationally.4. Vocabulary selection procedures are followed to ensure that an essential general service vocabulary is covered.5. Items of grammar are graded by their complexity.6. Reading and writing are introduced once a sufficient lexical and grammatical basis is established.三、Approach(2).An inductive approach is used to the teaching of grammar(3).The same processed are thought to occur both in child language learning and in second language learning.四、Design(1). Practical command of the four basic skills of language(2). Accuracy in both pronunciation and grammar is regarded as crucial.(3). Automatic control of basic structures and sentence patterns is fundamental.—a list of the basic structures and sentence patternsa drill-based manner to practicing the new sentence patterns(2) Situation: the use of concrete objects, pictures and realia, which together with actions and gestures(3) Practice techniques: guided repetition, substitution activities, pair practiceThreefold: a model、a skillful manipulator、on the lookout for errors(2)Visual aids: consists of wall charts, flashcards, pictures, stick figuresThe teacher is expected to be the master of his textbook.五、ProcedureAim: to move from controlled to freer practice of structures and from oral use of sentenceRevision ( to prepare for new work if necessary)Presentation of new structure or vocabularyOral practice (drilling)Choral imitationIndividual imitationIsolationBuilding up to a new modelElicitationSubstitution drillingQuestion-answer drillingCorrection第四章The Audiolingual MethodIt is a method of foreign or second language teaching which (a) emphasizes the teaching ofspeaking and listening before reading and writing (b) uses dialogues and drills. (c)discourages use of the mother tongue in the classroom (d) often makes use of contrastiveanalysis. The audiolingual method was prominent in the 1950s and 1960s, especially in theUnited States, and has been widely used in many other parts of the world.⼀、BackgroundThe combination of structural linguistic theory, contrastive analysis, aural-oral procedures, and behaviorist psychology led to the Audiolingual Method.情境法与听说法的异同There are many similarities between situational language teaching and audiolingualism.1. The order in which language skills are introduced2. Focus on accuracy through drill and practice in the basic structures3. Sectence patterns of the target languageHowever, situational language teaching was a development of the earlier Direct Method and does not have the strong ties to linguistic and behavioral psychology that characterize audiolingualism. The similarities of the two methods reflect similar views about the nature of language and of language learning, through these views were in fact development from quite different traditions.⼆、Approach1. Foreign language learning is basically a process of mechanical habit formation.2. Language skills are learned more effectively if the items to be learned in the target language are presented in sporken form before they are seen in written form.3. Analogy provides a better foundation for language learning than analysis. Hence the approach to the teaching of grammar is essentially inductive rather than deductive.4.The meaning of word can be learned in a linguistic and cultural context and not in isolation.三、Design、accurate pronunciation, reading comprehension and productionModels the target languageControls the direction and pace of learningTape recorders and audiovisual equipment四、Procedure1、The process of teaching involves extensive oral instruction2、The procedures the teacher should adopt ( Brook)3、In a typical audiolingual lesson the following procedures will be observed:a.

This method of learning was developed by James Asher, a professor of psychologyat San Jose State University, California.⼀、Background1、the “trace theory” of memory in psychology2、developmental psychology:child first language acquisition3、humanistic psychology: the role of affective factors4、Comprehension Approach5、a tradition: the use of physical actions to teach a foreign language at an introductory level⼆、Approachstructuralist or grammar-based views of languagedetailed cognitive map (abstractions and nonabstractions)the central role of comprehension in language learningReminiscent of the views of behavioral psychology: a stimulus-response viewLearning hypotheses ( to facilitate or inhibit foreign language learning )According to Asher, the language learning theories are similar to those of other behavioral psychologists. The principals that help elaborate his idea are:1. Second language learning is parallel to first language learning and should reflect the samenaturalistic processes.2. Listening should develop before speaking.3. Once listening comprehension has been developed, speech develops naturally and effortlesslyout of it.4. Adults should use right-brain motor activities, while the left hemisphere watches and learns.三、Designoral proficiency at a beginning levelA sentence-based syllabusA fixed number of items be introduced at a timeImperative drills are the major classroom activity.Role plays:center on everyday situationSlide presentationsA primary role : listener and performerHave little influence over the contentActive and direct roleWell prepared and well organizedTeachers follow the example of parents giving feedbackNo basic text, materials and realia play an increasing role in later learning stages.Student kits that focus on specific situations (supporting materials)四、ProcedureAsher’s account of a course:ReviewNew commandsRole reversalReading and writingConclusion:Total Physical Response has enjoyed some popularity because of its support by those who emphasize the role of comprehension in second language acquisition.第六章The Silent WayIt is a method of foreign-language teaching developed by Gattegno which makes use of gesture,mime, visual aids, wall charts, and in particular Cuisiniere rods (wooden sticks of differentlengths and colors) that the teacher uses to help the students to talk.

第三章The oral approach and situational language teachingThe oral approach (situational language teaching) is a grammar-based method inwhich principles of grammatical and lexical gradation are used and new teachingpoints are presented and practiced through meaningful situation-based activities.一、Background1. Two of the leaders were Harold palmer and A.S.Hornby.2. Vocabulary control3. Grammar control二、The Oral Approach and Situational Language TeachingThe main characteristics of the approach were as follows:1. Language teaching begins with the spoken language. Material is taught orally.2. The target language is the language of the classroom.3. New language points are introduced and practiced situationally.4. Vocabulary selection procedures are followed to ensure that an essential general service vocabulary is covered.5. Items of grammar are graded by their complexity.6. Reading and writing are introduced once a sufficient lexical and grammatical basis is established.三、Approach1、Theory of language○1a type of British “structuralism”.○2One distinctive feature: structures must be linked to situations in which they could be used○3Language was viewed as purposeful activity related to goals and situations in the real world.2、Theory of learninga type of behaviorist habit-learning theory(three processes in learning a language)(1). Language learning as habit formation(2).An inductive approach is used to the teaching of grammar(3).The same processed are thought to occur both in child language learning and in second language learning.四、Design1、Objectives:(1). Practical command of the four basic skills of language(2). Accuracy in both pronunciation and grammar is regarded as crucial.(3). Automatic control of basic structures and sentence patterns is fundamental.(4). Writing derives from speech.2、The syllabus(1) A structural syllabus—a list of the basic structures and sentence patterns(2) Situation: the manner of presenting and practicing sentence patterns3、Types of learning and teaching activities(1) SLT employs a situational approach to presenting new sentence patterns and a drill-based manner to practicing the new sentence patterns(2) Situation: the use of concrete objects, pictures and realia, which together with actions and gestures(3) Practice techniques: guided repetition, substitution activities, pair practice4、Learner roles(1) Listen, repeat and responds to questions and commands(2) Have no control over the content of learning5、Teacher rolesThreefold: a model、a skillful manipulator、on the lookout for errorsThe teacher is essential to the success of the method.6、The role of instructional materials(1)Textbook: contains organized lessons(2)Visual aids: consists of wall charts, flashcards, pictures, stick figuresThe teacher is expected to be the master of his textbook.五、ProcedureAim: to move from controlled to freer practice of structures and from oral use of sentence patterns to their automatic use in speech, reading and writing.The teaching of a structure: four partsPronunciationRevision ( to prepare for new work if necessary)Presentation of new structure or vocabularyOral practice (drilling)Reading of material on the new structure, or written exercisesThe sequence of activities:Listening practiceChoral imitationIndividual imitationIsolationBuilding up to a new modelElicitationSubstitution drillingQuestion-answer drillingCorrection第四章The Audiolingual MethodIt is a method of foreign or second language teaching which (a) emphasizes theteaching of speaking and listening before reading and writing (b) uses dialoguesand drills. (c) discourages use of the mother tongue in the classroom (d) oftenmakes use of contrastive analysis. The audiolingual method was prominent inthe 1950s and 1960s, especially in the United States, and has been widely used inmany other parts of the world.一、BackgroundThe combination of structural linguistic theory, contrastive analysis, aural-oral procedures, and behaviorist psychology led to the Audiolingual Method.二、Approach1、Theory of languageStructural linguistics (1950s): a reaction to traditional grammarThe primary medium of language is oral: speech is language.2、Theory of learningBehavioral psychology: stimulus-response chainsLearning principles:1. Foreign language learning is basically a process of mechanical habit formation.2. Language skills are learned more effectively if the items to be learned in the target language are presented in sporken form before they are seen in written form.3. Analogy provides a better foundation for language learning than analysis. Hence the approach to the teaching of grammar is essentially inductive rather than deductive.4.The meaning of word can be learned in a linguistic and cultural context and not in isolation.三、Design1、ObjectivesShort-range objectives:Listening comprehension、accurate pronunciation, reading comprehension and production of correct sentences in writing.Long-range objectives :To develop in the students the same types of abilities that native speakers have2、The syllabusA linguistic syllabus: phonology, morphology, and syntax of the languageA lexical syllabus of basic vocabularyLanguage skills: listening, speaking, reading, writing3、Types of learning and teaching activitiesDialoguesDrills --Various kinds of drills : repetition, inflection, replacement…4、Learner rolesOrganisms that can be directed by skilled training techniques to produce correct responsesa reactive role, have little control5、Teachers rolesCentral and activeModels the target languageControls the direction and pace of learningMonitors and corrects the learners’ performance6、The role of instructional materialsTextbookTape recorders and audiovisual equipment四、Procedure1、The process of teaching involves extensive oral instruction2、The procedures the teacher should adopt ( Brook)3、In a typical audiolingual lesson the following procedures will be observed:a. Recognition;b. Imitation and repetitionc. Patterns drill:d. Follow-up activities五、The decline of Audiolingualism1、Criticism on two fronts: the theoretical foundations(both in language and language learning)and the practical results fell short of expectation.2、the theoretical attack: Noam Chomsky’s theory of transformational grammar情境法与听说法的异同There are many similarities between situational language teaching and audiolingualism.1. The order in which language skills are introduced2. Focus on accuracy through drill and practice in the basic structures3. Sectence patterns of the target languageHowever, situational language teaching was a development of the earlier Direct Method and does not have the strong ties to linguistic and behavioral psychology that characterize audiolingualism. The similarities of the two methods reflect similar views about the nature of language and of language learning, through these views were in fact development from quite different traditions.第五章Communicative Language Teaching又称:功能—意念法(The Functional-Notional Approach )The CLT is an approach to foreign or second language teaching which emphasizesthat the goal of language learning is communicative competence. Teachingmaterials used with the Communicative approach often teach the language neededto express and understand different kinds of functions. The approach follows aNational syllabus and emphasizes the processes of communication to getinformation, and using language for social interaction with other people.一、BackgroundThe origins of the CLT are to be found in the changes in the British language teaching tradition dating from the late 1960s.In the late sixties, the current SLT was questioned.British applied linguistics began to emphasize the fundamental dimension of language teaching at that time- the functional and communicative potential of language. Scholars argued for focus in language teaching on communicative proficiency rather than on mere mastery of structures.二、Approachlanguage as communication三、Design1、ObjectivesPiepho’s discussion (general objectives)1.an integrative and content level(language as a means of expression)2.an linguistic and instrumental level(language as a semiotic system and an object of learning)3.an affective level of interpersonal relationships and conduct(language as a means of expressing values and judgments about oneself and others.)4.a level of individual learning needs(remedial learning based on error analysis)5.a general educational level of extra-linguistic goals(language learning within the school curriculum) No defined particular objectives2、The syllabusNotional syllabus which specified the semantic-grammatical categories and the categories of communicative function that learners need to express.3、Types of learning and teaching activitiesClassroom activities are unlimited.Littlewood (functional communication activities and social interaction activities)1. Functional communication activities: ones aimed at developing certain languageskills and functions, but which involve communication, and2. Social interaction activities, such as conversation and discussion sessions, dialoguesand role plays4、Learner roles①a negotiator②a communicator③a contributor④an independent learner5、Teacher roles①a facilitator of the communication②an independent participant within the learning-teaching group③Need analyst (formally and informally)④Counselor⑤Group process manager6、The role of instructional materialsText-based materialsTask-based materialsRealia 实物教具四、ProcedureDescription of typical classroom procedures used in a lesson based on CLT principles is not feasible.Conclusion:Communicative Language Teaching is best considered an approach rather than a method. It appeared at a time when British language was ready for a paradigm shift. CLT appealed to those who sought a more humanistic approach to teaching, one in which the interactive processes of communication received priority. Now that the initial wave of enthusiasm has passed, some of the claims of CLT are being looked at more critically.第六章Total Physical ResponseTotal Physical Response is a language learning method based on the coordinationof speech and action. This method of learning was developed by James Asher, aprofessor of psychology at San Jose State University, California.一、Background1、the “trace theory” of memory in psychology2、developmental psychology:child first language acquisition3、humanistic psychology: the role of affective factors4、Comprehension Approach5、a tradition: the use of physical actions to teach a foreign language at an introductory level二、Approach1、Theory of languagestructuralist or grammar-based views of languagedetailed cognitive map (abstractions and nonabstractions)the central role of comprehension in language learninglanguage can be internalized as wholes or chunks2、Theory of learningReminiscent of the views of behavioral psychology: a stimulus-response viewLearning hypotheses ( to facilitate or inhibit foreign language learning ) According to Asher, the language learning theories are similar to those of other behavioral psychologists. The principals that help elaborate his idea are:1. Second language learning is parallel to first language learning and should reflect thesame naturalistic processes.2. Listening should develop before speaking.3. Once listening comprehension has been developed, speech develops naturally andeffortlessly out of it.4. Adults should use right-brain motor activities, while the left hemisphere watchesand learns.三、Design1、ObjectivesThe general objectives: to teach oral proficiency at a beginning levelSpecific instructional objectives are not elaborated.2、The syllabus:Be inferred from an analysis of the exercise types employed in TPR classesA sentence-based syllabusA fixed number of items be introduced at a timeAttention to both the global meaning of language and the finer details of itsorganization3、Types of learning and teaching activitiesImperative drills are the major classroom activity.Role plays:center on everyday situationSlide presentationsReading and writing activities4、Learner rolesA primary role : listener and performerHave little influence over the contentMonitor and evaluate their own progress5、Teacher rolesActive and direct roleWell prepared and well organizedTeachers follow the example of parents giving feedbackCautions: illusion of simplicity; having too narrow a tolerance for errors6、The role of instructional materialsNo basic text, materials and realia play an increasing role in later learning stages.Student kits that focus on specific situations (supporting materials)四、ProcedureAsher’s account of a course:ReviewNew commandsRole reversalReading and writingConclusion:Total Physical Response has enjoyed some popularity because of its support by thosewho emphasize the role of comprehension in second language acquisition.It represents a useful techniques and is compatible with other approaches to teaching.4.Traits 1. It uses psychomotor systems to teach.2. It support kinesthetic learning style, which is good for those who need to be active in the class.3. Command forms used to convey information.4. It works well with mixed-ability classes.5. It is very memorable, and it really helps students to remember phrases or words.6. It is a lot of fun, students enjoy it and it can be a real stirrer in the class.7. It is very effective with teenagers and young learners.第七章The Silent WayIt is a method of foreign-language teaching developed by Gattegno which makesuse of gesture, mime, visual aids, wall charts, and in particular Cuisiniere rods(wooden sticks of different lengths and colors) that the teacher uses to help thestudents to talk. The method takes its name from the relative silence of the teacherusing these techniques.一、BackgroundThe premise of the Silent WayThe learning hypothesesLearning is facilitated if the learner discovers or creates. (discovery learning)Learning is facilitated by accompanying physical objects.Learning is facilitated by problem solving.二、Approach1、Theory of languageGattegno views language as a substitute for experience.By the "spirit" of the language Gattegno is referring to the way each language isComposed of phonological and suprasegmentalA structural approachVocabulary as a central dimension2、Theory of learningSurrenderArtificial approachThe self of the learnerLearning to learn三、Design1、ObjectivesThe general objectives: to give beginning level students oral and aural facilityAn immediate objectives: to provide the learner with a basic practical knowledge of the grammar of the languageTeach learners how to learn a language2、The syllabusa basically structural syllabusvocabulary3、Types of learning and teaching activitiessimple linguistic tasksresponses to commands, questions and visual cues4、Learner rolesLearners are expected to develop independence, autonomy and responsibility.Learners exert a strong influence over each other’s learning.Playing varying roles5、Teacher rolesTeacher silence is the most demanding aspect of the Silent Way.To teach, to test, to get out of the wayCreate an environmentTeacher likes the complete dramatist.6、The role of instructional materialsThe pronunciation chartsThe colored cuisenaire rodsThe vocabulary or word chartsOther materials四、ProcedureA standard formatPractice of the sounds (using the pronunciation charts)Practice of sentence patterns, structure, and vocabulary (using the rods and charts)A sample lessonConclusion:The actual practices of the Silent Way are much less revolutionary than might be expected. The innovations derive from the manner in which classroom activities are organized, the indirect role the teacher is required to assume in directing and monitoring learner performance, the responsibility placed upon learners, and the materials used.第八章Community Language LearningIt is a method of second and foreign language teaching developed by Charles Curran. CLL is an application of counseling learning(咨询学习法)to second andforeign language teaching and learning. It uses techniques developed in groupcounseling to help people with psychological and emotional problems. The methodmakes use of group learning in small or large groups. These groups are the“Community”. The method places emphasis on the learners’ personal feelings andtheir reactions to language learning. Learners say things which they want to talkabout, in their native language. The teacher (known as “Counselor”) translatesthe learners’ sentences into the foreign language, and the learner then repeats thisto other members of the group.一、Background1、Rogerian counseling2、Humanistic techniques:the whole person3、Language alternation二、Approach1、Theory of languageTraditional structuralist positionLanguage as social processThe interactional view of language: interaction between equals, interaction between unequals2、Theory of learningContracted with traditional views (a putative learning view, the behavioral view)The whole-person learning (five stages)Consensual validationS(secure)A(attention and aggression)R(retention and reflection)D(discrimination)the personal commitments三、Design1、ObjectivesExplicit linguistic or communicative objectives are not defined.Teacher transfers knowledge and proficiency to the learner.Goal: attaining near-native like mastery of the target languageSpecific objectives are not addressed.2、The syllabusNo conventional language syllabusTopic-based courseTeacher’s responsibility3、Types of learning and teaching activitiesCombines innovative learning tasks and activities with conventional ones.Translation, Group Work, Recording, Transcription, Analysis, Reflection and observation, Listening, Free conversation4、Learner rolesmembers of a communitybecome counselors to other learnersFive stages5、Teacher rolesCounselorSpecific teacher roles are keyed to the five development stages.providing a safe environmentNote two “asides” in the discussion of learning security.6、The role of instructional materialsA textbook is not considered a necessary component.Materials may be developed by the teacher as the course develops.the use of teaching machines四、Procedure1、 classical CLL and personal interpretations of it2、 the description of some typical activities in CLL classed3、 a protocol of what a first day’s CLL class coveredConclusion:Community Language Learning is the most responsive of the methods we have reviewed in terms of its sensitivity to learner communication intent. It places unusual demands on language teachers. Critics of Community Language Learning question many aspects of CLL.

《语言教学的流派》笔记Task-Based Language Teaching Definition Task-Based Language Teaching (TBLT) refers to an approach based on the use of tasks as the core unit of planning and instruction in language teaching.The relationships between TBLT and Communicative Language Teaching (CLT)Task-based language teaching: ? a logical development of CLT? formed part of the communicative language teaching movement from the 1980s. Eg:◎Activities that involve real communication are essential for language learning ◎Activities in which language is used for carrying out meaningful tasks promote learning ◎Language that is meaningful to the learner supports the learning process? The role of tasks has received further support from some researchers in second language acquisition (SLA), who are interested in developing pedagogical applications of SLA. ? Task is regarded as the potential building blocks of SLA instruction.? SLA research has focused on the strategies and cognitive process employed by second language learners? Language learning is believed to depend on immersing students not merely in “comprehensible input〞 but in tasks that require them to negotiate meaning and engage in naturalistic and meaningful communication.The key assumptions of task-based instruction are summarized by Feez 〔1998:17) as :The focus is on process rather than procedure. Basic elements are purposeful activities and tasks that emphasize communication and meaning.Learner learn language by interacting communicatively and purposefully while engaged in the activities and tasksActivities and tasks can be either: those that learners might need to achieve in real life; those that have a pedagogical purpose specific to the classroom.

《语⾔教学的流派》笔记(最新整理)第三章The oral approach and situational language teachingThe oral approach (situational language teaching) is a grammar-based method inwhich principles of grammatical and lexical gradation are used and new teachingpoints are presented and practiced through meaningful situation-based activities.⼀、Background1. Two of the leaders were Harold palmer and A.S.Hornby.2. Vocabulary control3. Grammar control⼆、The Oral Approach and Situational Language TeachingThe main characteristics of the approach were as follows:1. Language teaching begins with the spoken language. Material is taught orally.2. The target language is the language of the classroom.3. New language points are introduced and practiced situationally.4. Vocabulary selection procedures are followed to ensure that an essential general service vocabulary is covered.5. Items of grammar are graded by their complexity.6. Reading and writing are introduced once a sufficient lexical and grammatical basis is established.三、Approach1、Theory of languagea type of British “structuralism”.○1One distinctive feature: structures must be linked to situations in which they could be used○2Language was viewed as purposeful activity related to goals and situations in the real world.○32、Theory of learninga type of behaviorist habit-learning theory(three processes in learning a language)(1). Language learning as habit formation(2).An inductive approach is used to the teaching of grammar(3).The same processed are thought to occur both in child language learning and in second language learning.四、Design1、Objectives:(1). Practical command of the four basic skills of language(2). Accuracy in both pronunciation and grammar is regarded as crucial.(3). Automatic control of basic structures and sentence patterns is fundamental.(4). Writing derives from speech.2、The syllabus(1) A structural syllabus—a list of the basic structures and sentence patterns(2) Situation: the manner of presenting and practicing sentence patterns3、Types of learning and teaching activities(1) SLT employs a situational approach to presenting new sentence patterns and a drill-based manner to practicing the new sentence patterns(2) Situation: the use of concrete objects, pictures and realia, which together with actions and gestures(3) Practice techniques: guided repetition, substitution activities, pair practice4、Learner roles(1) Listen, repeat and responds to questions and commands(2) Have no control over the content of learning5、Teacher rolesThreefold: a model、a skillful manipulator、on the lookout for errorsThe teacher is essential to the success of the method.6、The role of instructional materials(1)Textbook: contains organized lessons(2)Visual aids: consists of wall charts, flashcards, pictures, stick figuresThe teacher is expected to be the master of his textbook.五、ProcedureAim: to move from controlled to freer practice of structures and from oral use of sentence patterns to their automatic use in speech, reading and writing.The teaching of a structure: four partsPronunciationRevision ( to prepare for new work if necessary)Presentation of new structure or vocabularyOral practice (drilling)Reading of material on the new structure, or written exercisesThe sequence of activities:Listening practiceChoral imitationIndividual imitationIsolationBuilding up to a new modelElicitationSubstitution drillingQuestion-answer drillingCorrection第四章The Audiolingual MethodIt is a method of foreign or second language teaching which (a) emphasizes theteaching of speaking and listening before reading and writing (b) uses dialoguesand drills. (c) discourages use of the mother tongue in the classroom (d) oftenmakes use of contrastive analysis. The audiolingual method was prominent inthe 1950s and 1960s, especially in the United States, and has been widely used inmany other parts of the world.⼀、BackgroundThe combination of structural linguistic theory, contrastive analysis, aural-oral procedures, and behaviorist psychology led to the Audiolingual Method.⼆、Approach1、Theory of languageStructural linguistics (1950s): a reaction to traditional grammarThe primary medium of language is oral: speech is language.2、Theory of learningBehavioral psychology: stimulus-response chainsLearning principles:1. Foreign language learning is basically a process of mechanical habit formation.2. Language skills are learned more effectively if the items to be learned in the target language are presented in sporken form before they are seen in written form.3. Analogy provides a better foundation for language learning than analysis. Hence the approach to the teaching of grammar is essentially inductive rather than deductive.4.The meaning of word can be learned in a linguistic and cultural context and not in isolation.三、Design1、ObjectivesShort-range objectives:Listening comprehension、accurate pronunciation, reading comprehension and production of correct sentences in writing.Long-range objectives :To develop in the students the same types of abilities that native speakers have2、The syllabusA linguistic syllabus: phonology, morphology, and syntax of the languageA lexical syllabus of basic vocabularyLanguage skills: listening, speaking, reading, writing3、Types of learning and teaching activitiesDialoguesDrills --Various kinds of drills : repetition, inflection, replacement…4、Learner rolesOrganisms that can be directed by skilled training techniques to produce correct responsesa reactive role, have little control5、Teachers rolesCentral and activeModels the target languageControls the direction and pace of learningMonitors and corrects the learners’ performance6、The role of instructional materialsTextbookTape recorders and audiovisual equipment四、Procedure1、The process of teaching involves extensive oral instruction2、The procedures the teacher should adopt ( Brook)3、In a typical audiolingual lesson the following procedures will be observed:a. Recognition;b. Imitation and repetitionc. Patterns drill:d. Follow-up activities五、The decline of Audiolingualism1、Criticism on two fronts: the theoretical foundations(both in language and language learning)and the practical results fell short of expectation.2、the theoretical attack: Noam Chomsky’s theory of transformational grammar情境法与听说法的异同There are many similarities between situational language teaching and audiolingualism.1. The order in which language skills are introduced2. Focus on accuracy through drill and practice in the basic structures3. Sectence patterns of the target languageHowever, situational language teaching was a development of the earlier Direct Method and does not have the strong ties to linguistic and behavioral psychology that characterize audiolingualism. The similarities of the two methods reflect similar views about the nature of language and of language learning, through these views were in fact development from quite different traditions.第五章Communicative Language Teaching⼜称:功能—意念法(The Functional-Notional Approach )The CLT is an approach to foreign or second language teaching which emphasizesthat the goal of language learning is communicative competence. Teachingmaterials used with the Communicative approach often teach the language neededto express and understand different kinds of functions. The approach follows aNational syllabus and emphasizes the processes of communication to getinformation, and using language for social interaction with other people.⼀、BackgroundThe origins of the CLT are to be found in the changes in the British language teaching tradition dating from the late 1960s.In the late sixties, the current SLT was questioned.British applied linguistics began to emphasize the fundamental dimension of language teaching at that time- the functional and communicative potential of language. Scholars argued for focus in language teaching on communicative proficiency rather than on mere mastery of structures.⼆、Approachlanguage as communication三、Design1、ObjectivesPiepho’s discussion (general objectives)1.an integrative and content level(language as a means of expression)2.an linguistic and instrumental level(language as a semiotic system and an object of learning)3.an affective level of interpersonal relationships and conduct(language as a means of expressing values and judgments about oneself and others.)4.a level of individual learning needs(remedial learning based on error analysis)5.a general educational level of extra-linguistic goals(language learning within the school curriculum) No defined particular objectives2、The syllabusNotional syllabus which specified the semantic-grammatical categories and the categories of communicative function that learners need to express.3、Types of learning and teaching activitiesClassroom activities are unlimited.Littlewood (functional communication activities and social interaction activities)1. Functional communication activities: ones aimed at developing certain languageskills and functions, but which involve communication, and2. Social interaction activities, such as conversation and discussion sessions, dialoguesand role plays4、Learner roles①a negotiator②a communicator③a contributor④an independent learner5、Teacher roles①a facilitator of the communication②an independent participant within the learning-teaching group③Need analyst (formally and informally)④Counselor⑤Group process manager6、The role of instructional materialsText-based materialsTask-based materialsRealia 实物教具四、ProcedureDescription of typical classroom procedures used in a lesson based on CLT principles is not feasible.Conclusion:Communicative Language Teaching is best considered an approach rather than a method. It appeared at a time when British language was ready for a paradigm shift. CLT appealed to those who sought a more humanistic approach to teaching, one in which the interactive processes of communication received priority. Now that the initial wave of enthusiasm has passed, some of the claims of CLT are being looked at more critically.第六章Total Physical ResponseTotal Physical Response is a language learning method based on the coordinationof speech and action. This method of learning was developed by James Asher, aprofessor of psychology at San Jose State University, California.⼀、Background1、the “trace theory” of memory in psychology2、developmental psychology:child first language acquisition3、humanistic psychology: the role of affective factors4、Comprehension Approach5、a tradition: the use of physical actions to teach a foreign language at an introductory level⼆、Approach1、Theory of languagestructuralist or grammar-based views of languagedetailed cognitive map (abstractions and nonabstractions)the central role of comprehension in language learninglanguage can be internalized as wholes or chunks2、Theory of learningReminiscent of the views of behavioral psychology: a stimulus-response viewLearning hypotheses ( to facilitate or inhibit foreign language learning ) According to Asher, the language learning theories are similar to those of other behavioral psychologists. The principals that help elaborate his idea are:1. Second language learning is parallel to first language learning and should reflect the same naturalistic processes.2. Listening should develop before speaking.3. Once listening comprehension has been developed, speech develops naturally and effortlessly out of it.4. Adults should use right-brain motor activities, while the left hemisphere watches and learns.三、Design1、ObjectivesThe general objectives: to teach oral proficiency at a beginning levelSpecific instructional objectives are not elaborated.2、The syllabus:Be inferred from an analysis of the exercise types employed in TPR classesA sentence-based syllabusA fixed number of items be introduced at a timeAttention to both the global meaning of language and the finer details of its organization3、Types of learning and teaching activitiesImperative drills are the major classroom activity.Role plays:center on everyday situationSlide presentationsReading and writing activities4、Learner rolesA primary role : listener and performerHave little influence over the contentMonitor and evaluate their own progress5、Teacher rolesActive and direct roleWell prepared and well organizedTeachers follow the example of parents giving feedbackCautions: illusion of simplicity; having too narrow a tolerance for errors6、The role of instructional materialsNo basic text, materials and realia play an increasing role in later learning stages. Student kits that focus on specific situations (supporting materials)四、ProcedureAsher’s account of a course:ReviewNew commandsRole reversalReading and writingConclusion:Total Physical Response has enjoyed some popularity because of its support by thosewho emphasize the role of comprehension in second language acquisition.It represents a useful techniques and is compatible with other approaches to teaching.4.Traits 1. It uses psychomotor systems to teach.2. It support kinesthetic learning style, which is good for those who need to be active in the class.3. Command forms used to convey information.4. It works well with mixed-ability classes.5. It is very memorable, and it really helps students to remember phrases or words.6. It is a lot of fun, students enjoy it and it can be a real stirrer in the class.7. It is very effective with teenagers and young learners.第七章The Silent WayIt is a method of foreign-language teaching developed by Gattegno which makesuse of gesture, mime, visual aids, wall charts, and in particular Cuisiniere rods(wooden sticks of different lengths and colors) that the teacher uses to help thestudents to talk. The method takes its name from the relative silence of the teacherusing these techniques.⼀、BackgroundThe premise of the Silent WayThe learning hypothesesLearning is facilitated if the learner discovers or creates. (discovery learning)Learning is facilitated by accompanying physical objects.Learning is facilitated by problem solving.⼆、Approach1、Theory of languageGattegno views language as a substitute for experience.By the "spirit" of the language Gattegno is referring to the way each language isComposed of phonological and suprasegmentalA structural approachVocabulary as a central dimension2、Theory of learningSurrenderArtificial approachThe self of the learnerLearning to learn三、Design1、ObjectivesThe general objectives: to give beginning level students oral and aural facilityAn immediate objectives: to provide the learner with a basic practical knowledge of the grammar of the language Teach learners how to learn a language2、The syllabusa basically structural syllabusvocabulary3、Types of learning and teaching activitiessimple linguistic tasksresponses to commands, questions and visual cues4、Learner rolesLearners are expected to develop independence, autonomy and responsibility.Learners exert a strong influence over each other’s learning.Playing varying roles5、Teacher rolesTeacher silence is the most demanding aspect of the Silent Way.To teach, to test, to get out of the wayCreate an environmentTeacher likes the complete dramatist.6、The role of instructional materialsThe pronunciation chartsThe colored cuisenaire rodsThe vocabulary or word chartsOther materials四、ProcedureA standard formatPractice of the sounds (using the pronunciation charts)Practice of sentence patterns, structure, and vocabulary (using the rods and charts)A sample lessonConclusion:The actual practices of the Silent Way are much less revolutionary than might be expected. The innovations derive from the manner in which classroom activities are organized, the indirect role the teacher is required to assume in directing and monitoring learner performance, the responsibility placed upon learners, and the materials used.第⼋章Community Language LearningIt is a method of second and foreign language teaching developed by Charles Curran. CLL is an application of counseling learning(咨询学习法)to second andforeign language teaching and learning. It uses techniques developed in groupcounseling to help people with psychological and emotional problems. The methodmakes use of group learning in small or large groups. These groups are the“Community”. The method places emphasis on the learners’ personal feelings andtheir reactions to language learning. Learners say things which they want to talkabout, in their native language. The teacher (known as “Counselor”) translatesthe learners’ sentences into the foreign language, and the learner then repeats thisto other members of the group.⼀、Background1、Rogerian counseling2、Humanistic techniques:the whole person3、Language alternation⼆、Approach1、Theory of languageTraditional structuralist positionLanguage as social processThe interactional view of language: interaction between equals, interaction between unequals2、Theory of learningContracted with traditional views (a putative learning view, the behavioral view)The whole-person learning (five stages)Consensual validationS(secure)A(attention and aggression)R(retention and reflection)D(discrimination)the personal commitments三、Design1、ObjectivesExplicit linguistic or communicative objectives are not defined.Teacher transfers knowledge and proficiency to the learner.Goal: attaining near-native like mastery of the target languageSpecific objectives are not addressed.2、The syllabusNo conventional language syllabusTopic-based courseTeacher’s responsibility3、Types of learning and teaching activitiesCombines innovative learning tasks and activities with conventional ones.Translation, Group Work, Recording, Transcription, Analysis, Reflection and observation, Listening, Free conversation4、Learner rolesmembers of a communitybecome counselors to other learnersFive stages5、Teacher rolesCounselorSpecific teacher roles are keyed to the five development stages.providing a safe environmentNote two “asides” in the discussion of learning security.6、The role of instructional materialsA textbook is not considered a necessary component.Materials may be developed by the teacher as the course develops.the use of teaching machines四、Procedure1、 classical CLL and personal interpretations of it2、 the description of some typical activities in CLL classed3、 a protocol of what a first day’s CLL class coveredConclusion:Community Language Learning is the most responsive of the methods we have reviewed in terms of its sensitivity to learner communication intent. It places unusual demands on language teachers. Critics of Community Language Learning question many aspects of CLL. Supporters of CLL emphasize the positive benefits of a method that centered on the learner and stresses the humanistic side of language learning.Question for discussion:社团学习法把语⾔学习过程⽐作是咨询过程,你们觉得这个⽐喻合适吗?为什么?第九章The Natural ApproachIt is a term for an approach proposed by Terrell, to develop teaching principleswhich(a) emphasize natural communication rather than formal grammar study(b) are tolerant of learners’ errors(c) emphasize the informal acquisition of language rules.⼀、Background1、Tracy Terrell and Stephen Krashen2、The Natural Approach and traditional approaches3、The Natural Approach and the Natural Method⼆、Approach1、Theory of languagecommunication as the primary function of languagegive little attention to a theory of languageThe importance of vocabulary is stressed.view language learning as mastery of structures by stages (I+1)a view of language consists of lexical items, structure, and messages2 Theory of learning: Krashen’s language acquisition theoryThe Acquisition/Learning hypothesisThe monitor hypothesisThe natural order hypothesisThe input hypothesisThe affective filter hypothesis三、Design1、ObjectivesExpectationSpecific objectives depend upon learner needs and the skill and level being taught.It is important to communicate to learners what they can expect of a course as well as what they should not expect.2、The syllabusTwo points of view to approach course organizationContent selection3、Types of learning and teaching activitiesCommand-based activitiesDirect Method activitiesSituation-based practice of structures and patternsGroup-work activitiesthe characteristics of the Natural Approach4、Learner rolesa processor of comprehensible inputLearners’ roles change according to their stages of linguistic development.Learner have four kinds of responsibilities.5、Teacher rolesThree central rolesa. the primary source of comprehensible inputb. create a classroom atmospherec. choose and orchestrate a rich mix of classroom activities6、The role of instructional materialsthe primary goal of materialsthe primary aim of materialsother recommended materialsgames四、ProcedureThe Natural Approach adopts techniques and activities freely from various method sources.ExamplesConclusion:The Natural Approach belongs to a tradition of language teaching methods based on observation and interpretation of how learners acquire both first and second languages in nonformal setting. Its greatest claim to originality lies not in the techniques it employs but in their use in a method that emphasizes comprehensible and meaningful practice activities, rather than production of grammatically perfect utterances and sentences.Question for discussion:⾃然法的⾃然之处在哪⾥?创新之处⼜在哪⾥?第⼗章SuggostopediaSuggestopedia/Lozanov Method (暗⽰法/罗扎诺夫法)It is a method of foreign-language teaching developed by the Bulgarian Lozanov.

Task-Based Language TeachingDefinitionTask-Based Language Teaching (TBLT) refers to an approach based on the use of tasks as the core unit of planning and instruction in language teaching.The relationships between TBLT and Communicative Language Teaching (CLT)Task-based language teaching:• a logical development of CLT•formed part of the communicative language teaching movement from the 1980s.Eg:◎Activities that involve real communication are essential for language learning ◎Activities in which language is used for carrying out meaningful tasks promote learning ◎Language that is meaningful to the learner supports the learning process •The role of tasks has received further support from some researchers in second language acquisition (SLA), who are interested in developing pedagogical applications of SLA.•Task is regarded as the potential building blocks of SLA instruction.•SLA research has focused on the strategies and cognitive process employed by second language learners•Language learning is believed to depend on immersing students not merely in “comprehensible input” but in tasks that require them to negotiate meaning and engage in naturalistic and meaningful communication.The key assumptions of task-based instruction are summarized by Feez(1998:17) as : The focus is on process rather than procedure. Basic elements are purposefulactivities and tasks that emphasize communication and meaning. Learner learn language by interacting communicatively and purposefully while engaged in the activities and tasksActivities and tasks can be either: those that learners might need to achieve in real life; those that have a pedagogical purpose specific to the classroom.Activities and tasks of a task-based syllabus are sequenced according to difficulty.The difficulty of a task depends on a range of factors including the previous experience of the learner, the complexity of the task, the language required to undertake the task, and the degree of support availablewhat is “task” ?A task is an activity or goal that is carried out using language, such as finding asolution to a puzzle, reading a map, and giving directions, making a telephone call etc.Nunan (1989:10) offers this definition: the task is a piece of classroom work which involves learners in comprehending, manipulating, producing or interacting in the target language while their attention is principally focused on meaning rather than form.

They must arrive at a solution to the problem.Decision- making tasks(选择决定型任务):Students are given a problem for which there are a number of possible outcomes and they must choose one through negotiation and discussion.Opinion exchange tasks(交换观点型任务): Learners engage in discussion and exchange of ideas. They do not need to reach agreement.Other characteristics of tasks have also been describedone-way or two-way: whether the task involves a one-way exchange of information or two-way exchange.convergent or divergent: whether the students achieve a common goal or several different goals.collaborative or competitive: whether the students collaborate to carry out a task or compete with each other on a task.single or multiple outcomes: whether there is a single outcome or many different outcomes are possible.concrete or abstract language: whether the task involves the use of concrete languageor abstract language.simple or complex processing: whether the task requires relatively simple or complex cognitive processing.simple or complex language: whether the linguistic demands of the task are relatively simple or complex.reality-based or not reality-based: whether the task mirrors a real-world activity or is a pedagogical activity not found in the real world.teacher rolesA central role of the teacher is in selecting, adapting ,and /or creating the tasks themselves and then forming these into an instructional sequence in keeping with learner needs, interests and language skill level.任务型教学的优点:1.注重真实场景下的、以明确目标为导向;它要求学生通过完成任务的学习活动来掌握真实、实用和有意义的语言。

Basic elements are purposeful activities and tasks that emphasize communication and meaning. Learner learn language by interacting communicatively and purposefully while engaged in the activities and tasksActivities and tasks can be either: those that learners might need to achieve in real life; those that have a pedagogical purpose specific to the classroom.Activities and tasks of a task-based syllabus are sequenced according to difficulty.The difficulty of a task depends on a range of factors including the previous experience of the learner, the complexity of the task, the language required to undertake the task, and the degree of support availablewhat is “task” ?A task is an activity or goal that is carried out using language, such as finding a solution to a puzzle, reading a map, and giving directions,making a telephone call etc.Nunan (1989:10) offers this definition: the task is a piece of classroom work which involves learners in comprehending, manipulating, producing or interacting in the target language while their attention is principally focused on meaning rather than form.

语言教学的流派第二版

语言教学的流派第二版

语言教学的流派第二版语言教学的流派,真的是个有趣的话题!你知道吗,各种流派就像一锅杂烩,各种味道混在一起,吃起来特别有意思。

先说说“语法翻译法”,这是老祖宗留下来的宝贝,像爷爷奶奶的家常菜。

老师把语法讲得透透的,学生就像小鹦鹉一样,反复背诵那些句子。

哎呀,虽然这样的方式让人学会了怎么说,但其实也挺枯燥的,像吃白粥,没啥滋味。

接下来是“直接法”,这个就像一场大派对,大家说得热火朝天。

老师用目标语言教学,直接用英文、法文什么的来沟通,学生得快速反应。

这样一来,能锻炼反应能力,真的是很给力呢!可问题来了,初学者往往听得一头雾水,搞得自己像个无头苍蝇。

然后,有个流派叫“听说法”,这可真是个好东西,特别适合那些想说得流利的小伙伴们。

通过大量的听和说,学习者在潜移默化中掌握语言,像海绵吸水一样,慢慢渗透进去。

可别以为这就简单了,得有耐心,还得多练,才能见到效果。

再说“交际法”,这个流派强调的是互动,学习者在真实的语言环境中沟通。

你知道,语言就是用来交流的,不是只用来考试的嘛。

大家一起聊聊,讨论讨论,感觉就像一群好朋友在咖啡馆里,轻松愉快。

这个方法特别适合那些胆子大的同学,敢于开口,敢于犯错。

错误是最好的老师,没错吧?还有“任务型教学法”,这个听起来很高大上,其实就是让你完成某个任务。

比如说,组织一次小型的“语言角”,大家一起玩游戏、做任务,边玩边学,乐趣无穷。

这样的方式能激发学习的积极性,让语言学习不再枯燥,简直就是让学习者的潜力发挥到极致。

你说,学习语言不就是为了交流吗?让大家聚在一起,亲密无间,真是太赞了。

可是,有时候也得看教学环境,不是所有地方都有这么好的条件。

还有一种被广泛提及的就是“结构法”。

这个方法注重语言的系统性,通过规则和结构来学习,像搭积木一样。

老师会给出一些基本的句型,学生们在此基础上创造新的句子。

这样一来,虽然可以更好地掌握语法,但又可能让学习变得机械,不如交际法那样灵活生动。

这就需要教师掌握平衡,既要传授知识,又要激发兴趣,才能做到真正的“教与学”。

第一章A brief history of language teaching第二章The nature of approaches and methods前两章很简单,详见前面中文导读第三章The oral approach and situational language teachingThe oral approach (situational language teaching) is a grammar-based method in whichprinciples of grammatical and lexical gradation are used and new teaching points arepresented and practiced through meaningful situation-based activities.一、Background1. Two of the leaders were Harold palmer and A.S.Hornby.2. Vocabulary control3. Grammar control二、The Oral Approach and Situational Language TeachingThe main characteristics of the approach were as follows:1. Language teaching begins with the spoken language. Material is taught orally.2. The target language is the language of the classroom.3. New language points are introduced and practiced situationally.4. Vocabulary selection procedures are followed to ensure that an essential general service vocabulary is covered.5. Items of grammar are graded by their complexity.6. Reading and writing are introduced once a sufficient lexical and grammatical basis is established.三、Approach(2).An inductive approach is used to the teaching of grammar(3).The same processed are thought to occur both in child language learning and in second language learning.四、Design(1). Practical command of the four basic skills of language(2). Accuracy in both pronunciation and grammar is regarded as crucial.(3). Automatic control of basic structures and sentence patterns is fundamental.—a list of the basic structures and sentence patternsa drill-based manner to practicing the new sentence patterns(2) Situation: the use of concrete objects, pictures and realia, which together with actions and gestures(3) Practice techniques: guided repetition, substitution activities, pair practiceThreefold: a model、a skillful manipulator、on the lookout for errors(2)Visual aids: consists of wall charts, flashcards, pictures, stick figuresThe teacher is expected to be the master of his textbook.五、ProcedureAim: to move from controlled to freer practice of structures and from oral use of sentenceRevision ( to prepare for new work if necessary)Presentation of new structure or vocabularyOral practice (drilling)Choral imitationIndividual imitationIsolationBuilding up to a new modelElicitationSubstitution drillingQuestion-answer drillingCorrection第四章The Audiolingual MethodIt is a method of foreign or second language teaching which (a) emphasizes the teaching ofspeaking and listening before reading and writing (b) uses dialogues and drills. (c)discourages use of the mother tongue in the classroom (d) often makes use of contrastiveanalysis. The audiolingual method was prominent in the 1950s and 1960s, especially in theUnited States, and has been widely used in many other parts of the world.一、BackgroundThe combination of structural linguistic theory, contrastive analysis, aural-oral procedures, and behaviorist psychology led to the Audiolingual Method.情境法与听说法的异同There are many similarities between situational language teaching and audiolingualism.1. The order in which language skills are introduced2. Focus on accuracy through drill and practice in the basic structures3. Sectence patterns of the target languageHowever, situational language teaching was a development of the earlier Direct Method and does not have the strong ties to linguistic and behavioral psychology that characterize audiolingualism. The similarities of the two methods reflect similar views about the nature of language and of language learning, through these views were in fact development from quite different traditions.二、Approach1. Foreign language learning is basically a process of mechanical habit formation.2. Language skills are learned more effectively if the items to be learned in the target language are presented in sporken form before they are seen in written form.3. Analogy provides a better foundation for language learning than analysis. Hence the approach to the teaching of grammar is essentially inductive rather than deductive.4.The meaning of word can be learned in a linguistic and cultural context and not in isolation.三、Design、accurate pronunciation, reading comprehension and productionModels the target languageControls the direction and pace of learningTape recorders and audiovisual equipment四、Procedure1、The process of teaching involves extensive oral instruction2、The procedures the teacher should adopt ( Brook)3、In a typical audiolingual lesson the following procedures will be observed:a. Recognition;b. Imitation and repetitionc. Patterns drill:d. Follow-up activities五、The decline of Audiolingualism1、Criticism on two fronts: the theoretical foundations(both in language and language learning)and the practical results fell short of expectation.2、the theoretical attack: Noam Chomsky’s theory of transformational grammar第五章Total Physical ResponseTotal Physical Response is a language learning method based on the coordination of speechand action. This method of learning was developed by James Asher, a professor of psychologyat San Jose State University, California.一、Background1、the “trace theory” of memory in psychology2、developmental psychology:child first language acquisition3、humanistic psychology: the role of affective factors4、Comprehension Approach5、a tradition: the use of physical actions to teach a foreign language at an introductory level二、Approachstructuralist or grammar-based views of languagedetailed cognitive map (abstractions and nonabstractions)<Bio-program>the central role of comprehension in language learningReminiscent of the views of behavioral psychology: a stimulus-response viewLearning hypotheses ( to facilitate or inhibit foreign language learning )According to Asher, the language learning theories are similar to those of other behavioral psychologists. The principals that help elaborate his idea are:1. Second language learning is parallel to first language learning and should reflect the samenaturalistic processes.2. Listening should develop before speaking.3. Once listening comprehension has been developed, speech develops naturally and effortlesslyout of it.4. Adults should use right-brain motor activities, while the left hemisphere watches and learns.三、Designoral proficiency at a beginning levelA sentence-based syllabusA fixed number of items be introduced at a timeImperative drills are the major classroom activity.Role plays:center on everyday situationSlide presentationsA primary role : listener and performerHave little influence over the contentActive and direct roleWell prepared and well organizedTeachers follow the example of parents giving feedbackNo basic text, materials and realia play an increasing role in later learning stages.Student kits that focus on specific situations (supporting materials)四、ProcedureAsher’s account of a course:ReviewNew commandsRole reversalReading and writingConclusion:Total Physical Response has enjoyed some popularity because of its support by those who emphasize the role of comprehension in second language acquisition.第六章The Silent WayIt is a method of foreign-language teaching developed by Gattegno which makes use of gesture,mime, visual aids, wall charts, and in particular Cuisiniere rods (wooden sticks of differentlengths and colors) that the teacher uses to help the students to talk. The method takes itsname from the relative silence of the teacher using these techniques.一、BackgroundThe premise of the Silent WayThe learning hypothesesLearning is facilitated if the learner discovers or creates. (discovery learning)Learning is facilitated by accompanying physical objects.Learning is facilitated by problem solving.二、ApproachBy the "spirit" of the language Gattegno is referring to the way each language isComposed of phonological and suprasegmentalA structural approachArtificial approachThe self of the learnerLearning to learn三、DesignAn immediate objectives: to provide the learner with a basic practical knowledge of the grammar of the languageLearners exert a strong influence over each other’s learning.To teach, to test, to get out of the wayCreate an environmentThe colored cuisenaire rodsThe vocabulary or word chartsOther materials四、ProcedureA standard formatPractice of the sounds (using the pronunciation charts)Practice of sentence patterns, structure, and vocabulary (using the rods and charts)A sample lessonFidel chartConclusion:The actual practices of the Silent Way are much less revolutionary than might be expected. The innovations derive from the manner in which classroom activities are organized, the indirect role the teacher is required to assume in directing and monitoring learner performance, the responsibility placed upon learners, and the materials used.第七章Community Language Learning社团语言学习法It is a method of second and foreign language teaching developed by Charles Curran. CLL is an application of counseling learning(咨询学习法)to second and foreign languageteaching and learning. It uses techniques developed in group counseling to help people withpsychological and emotional problems. The method makes use of group learning in small orlarge groups. Thes e groups are the “Community”. The method places emphasis on thelearners’ personal feelings and their reactions to language learning. Learners say thingswhich they want to talk about, in their native language. The teacher (known as “Counselor”)translat es the learners’ sentences into the foreign language, and the learner then repeats thisto other members of the group.一、Background1、Rogerian counseling——Charles A. Curren2、Humanistic techniques:the whole person3、Language alternation二、ApproachLanguage as social processThe interactional view of language: interaction between equals, interaction betweenunequalsThe whole-person learning (five stages)Consensual validationS(secure)A(attention and aggression)R(retention and reflection)D(discrimination)the personal commitments三、Designnot defined.Teacher transfers knowledge and proficiency to the learner.Goal: attaining near-native like mastery of the target languageTopic-based courseTeacher’s responsibility:teacher transfers knowledge and proficiency to the learnerGoal: attenting near-native like mastery of the target language.Translation, Group Work, Recording, Transcription, Analysis, Reflection andbecome counselors to other learnersSpecific teacher roles are keyed to the five development stages.providing a safe environmentMaterials may be developed by the teacher as the course develops.the use of teaching machines四、Procedure1、classical CLL and personal interpretations of it2、the description of some typical activities in CLL classed3、 a protocol of what a first day’s CLL class coveredConclusion:Community Language Learning is the most responsive of the methods we have reviewed in terms of its sensitivity to learner communication intent. It places unusual demands on language teachers. Critics of Community Language Learning question many aspects of CLL. Supporters of CLL emphasize the positive benefits of a method that centered on the learner and stresses the humanistic side of language learning.自己想法:学校英语角活动Question for discussion:社团学习法把语言学习过程比作是咨询过程,你们觉得这个比喻合适吗?为什么?第八章SuggostopediaSuggestopedia/Lozanov Method (暗示法/罗扎诺夫法)It is a method of foreign-language teaching developed by the Bulgarian Lozanov. It makes use of dialogues, situations and translation to present and practise language, and in particular,makes use of music, visual images, and relaxation exercises to make learning morecomfortable and effective.一、Background1、Suggestology2、the most conspicuous characteristics of Suggestopedia3、Soviet psychology4、mental states5、the centrality of music and musical rhythm to learning二、Approachwhole meaningful textsix principal theoretical components:authority, infantilization, double-planedness, intonation, rhythm, concertpseudo-passivenessthe type of musicthe rate of presentation of material to be learned within the rhythmic pattern三、Designdeliver advanced conversational proficiency quicklytime duration——30 dayseach uniteach unitexpected teacher behaviorsDirect support materials: text and tapeIndirect support materials: classroom fixtures and music四、ProcedureBancroft’s description: a four-hour language class has three distinct parts.The first part: an oral review sectionThe second part: new material is presented and discussedThe third part: the séance or concert sessionConclusion:Suggestopedia has probably received both the most enthusiastic and the most critical response of any of the so-called new methods. It is not productive to further belabor the science/nonscience, date/double-talk issues and instead try to identify and validate those techniques from Suggestopedia that appear effective and that harmonize with other successful techniques in the language teaching inventory.Question for discussion;暗示法强调音乐的作用,那么音乐在外语学习过程中究竟起了怎样的作用?谈谈你们的看法。
