  11. Circa WWII… Audiolingualism • e.g. Berlitz tapes • Listen & repeat • Total control • Avoid errors • cf. Behavioralism… (Pavlov, etc)

  12. Shadows Audiolingualism, but in Brittan… Oral-Situational • Get ‘em talking • Keep it relevant • Similar to Audiolingualism, but with focus on function…

  13. Circa 1970s Cognitive Approach • Language as “acquired” rules(not parroting of phrases or habits) • Individualized instruction & responsibility • Errors are welcomed

  14. Circa 1980s Affective-Humanistic • Respect for feelings • Meaningful communication • Pairs and groups • Teacher as counselor/facilitator • Teacher must speak both L1 & L2

  15. Circa 1980-00s Comprehension-Based • Listening is primary • i +1 • Learn rules & use them to self monitor • Self-correction, not teacher correction

  16. Circa 1970-00s Communicative • Communication is primary • Semantic & social issues included • Pairs/groups • Negotiate meaning • Authentic materials • Teacher as coach
