THE NATURE OF APPROACHES AND METHODS IN ENGLISH TEACHING
1. Approach
- approach is a set of correlative assumptions(general)
- describes the nature of a subject matter to be taught
- approach is the level at which assumptions and beliefs about a language and language learning are specified
2. Methods
- overall plan for the orderly presentation of language material
- an approach is axiomatic, a method is procedure
- method is the level at which theory is into practice and at which choices are made about the particular skills to be thought, the content to be thought , and the order in which the content will be presented
- axiomatic =an accepted statement or proposition regarded as being self-evidently true.
- procedure= an established or official way of doing something
3. Techniques
- technique is the level at which the classroom procedures are described
- a technique is implementational , which actually takes place in a classroom
- techniques must be consistent with a method, and therefore in harmony with an approach as well
