ESL Approaches and Methods
  1. Approaches
    1. Grammar Based
      1. structure-based deductive
        1. Grammar Based Approach
          1. explicit grammar/rule based instruction
            1. consistent error correction
              1. memorization of grammar, rules, and vocabulary
                1. practice use of grammar, rules, and vocabulary
        2. teacher centered
          1. used to be predominant teaching approach
            1. behaviorism
              1. Methods
                1. Grammar-Translation Method
                  1. language rules presented
                    1. memorization of vocabulary
                      1. practice of rules and vocabulary through written text
                    2. focused on grammar accuracy
                      1. replaced by direct method
                      2. Direct Method
                        1. focused on repetition and memorization of language patterns
                          1. inferred grammar through guided instruction
                            1. teacher modeled/student practiced to internalize patterns
                            2. taught in context, use of somevisual aids
                              1. translating in students 1st language was a no no
                              2. Audiolingual Method
                                1. reinforced production and error correction through feedback
                                  1. development of grammatical structure and vocabulary through practice
                                    1. practice of pattern drills and dialougue
                                  2. knowing structure of language instead how to use langauge
                                    1. ineffective approach
                                    2. Communicative
                                      1. meaning-based inductive
                                        1. learner interacts with environment
