Approaches and Methodologies
  1. Grammatical
    1. outdated “historical artifact”
          1. Teacher centered emphasis on the rules and structure of target language
                1. Isolated sentences to complex texts
                  1. Grammar-translation
                    1. More emphasis on development of reading writing and grammar.
                      1. Became popular in the nineteenth century
                        1. memorization of rules and vocabulary lists
                        2. Less emphasis on oral language development.
                          1. Direct
                            1. Focus on total immersion in L2: Sink or Swim
                              1. No use of L1 allowed in the classroom
                                1. Involves an open ended response to materials the teacher brings into the classroom.
                                  1. Audiolingual
                                    1. Grammar structures are carefully sequenced and taught.
                                      1. Minimal use of L1.
                                        1. Emphasizes error correction drills and repetitive practice designed to develope particular language structures
                                          1. Memorization and recall that become habbit
                                      2. Some importance on context through objects, photos, diagrams, and drawings.
                                      3. Dialog taught in context; exposure was key
                                        1. Teacher model; student practice
                                    2. Originated in late nineteenth century
                                        1. Direct method:
                                          1. teachers model, students practice
                                              1. less on explicit instruction more on repetition and memorization
                                                1. Dialogue memorization.
                                                  1. Repetition.

This is an example of active learning. It’s a complex dance between declarative knowledge, procedural knowledge, and conditional knowledge that eventually allows us to process that in our environment and learn from it. Johnson argued that declarative and procedural were the two most important processes for automatization, or the restructuring of large amounts of information. In this model the student is self-aware of his learning, what he wants to achieve, and the techniques to get him there.

This approach, though used for many many years essentially fails in offering the best options of instruction. Rather than teaching students how to use a language it focused on teaching about the language. This is how I felt in my high school Spanish class when we would spend weeks on conjugating verbs. This method does not provide students with comprehensible input, and research has shown that students that are educated in this manner do worse on standardized tests. This method doesn't work well and is outdated.

This approach places a major emphasis on communication and stresses that it is the primary objective in learning, which makes sense. Why are we learning a new language except to communicate with it? The theoretical foundation for this approach is constructivism. Believing that people are born with certain abilities to comprehend, construct, and produce language, theorists argued that learning took place through interactions between the learner’s mind and his environment. Learners do not require explicit instruction but rather the environment in which they can socially interact with others and therefore construct the language for themselves
