A STRATEGIC FRAMEWORK FOR L2 TEACHING.

The proposed strategic framework for L2

teaching consists of Macrostrategies and

Microstrategies

USES OF THE FRAMEWORK

MICROSTRATEGIES

MACROSTRATEGIES

It is a broad guideline, based on which teachers can generate their own situation-specific, need-based microstrategies or classroom techniques

Are plans derived from theorical, empirical and pedagogical knowledge related to L2 learning/teaching

The strategiec framework comprises the following 10 macroestrategies

MAXIMIZE LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES

FACILITATE NEGOTIATED INTERACTION

MINIMIZE PERCEPTUAL MISMATCHES

ACTIVATE INTUITIVE HEURISTICS

FOSTER LANGUAGE AWARENESS

CONTEXTUALIZE LINGUISTIC INPUT

INTEGRATE LANGUAGE SKILLS

PROMOTE LEARNER AUTONOMY

RAISE CULTURAL CONSCIOUSNESS

ENSURE SOCIAL RELEVANCE

It's customary to distinguish teaching acts from learning acts

Refers to meaningful learner-learner, learner-teacher interaction in class. Learner should be actively involved in confirm ation, comprehension checks, reacting and turn taking

It determines the relative success of failure of negotiated interaction in the classroom, is the perceptual match or mismatch between teacher intention and learner interpretation

There are 10 potential sources of perceptual mismatch

Cognitive, Communicative, Linguistic, Pedagogic, Strategic, Cultural, Evaluative, Procedural, Instructional and Attitudinal

Learners should be encouraged to find the rule-governing pattern in the examples provided, they should encounter the linguistic structure several times

Combines the notion of consciousness-raising and input enhancement. It's generally defined as a person's sensitivity to and awareness of the nature language and its role in human life

Words should be presented in sentences, and sentences practiced in meaningful context rather than taught as isolated disconnected elements

It's based on the integration of language skills traditionally identified an dsequenced as listening, speaking, reading and writing

It envolves helping learners learn how to learn, equipping them with mean necessary to self-direct their own learning

It's aimed at creating in the L2 learner an awareness of and an empathy toward the culture of the L2 community

Refers to the need for teachers to be sensitive to the societal, political, economical and educational environmenr in which L2 learning/teaching takes place

The strategic framework can be used to transform classroom practitioners into strategic teachers and strategic researchers. Also, can be used to develop investigative capability required for action research
