4. Chapter 1 traces some of the trends and issues emerging from the general educational fields that have had an important influence on the current state of SLTL. This chapter serves as a reminder that the philosophy and principles of second language education are rooted firmly in the field of general education. As language teachers, we are a branch on a much larger tree, and our professional lives will be immeasurably enriched if we are knowledgeable about the rest of the tree.
5. Experiential learning builds a bridge from the known to the new by taking the learner’s perceptions and experiences as the point of departure for the learning process.

7. In CLT, students practice real-life situations, for example, buying food at the market or asking someone for directions. In these exercises, the goal is for the student to communicate his or her needs and thoughts, without worrying about having perfect grammar. In CLT, students practice everyday situations that involve communication, such as asking someone for the time. In CLT, students learn about language in social contexts, such as the difference between speaking with an elder and a peer.

Innatism Chomsky : Language develops in the child in the same way that other biological functions develop. Connectionism According to it children are born with a special ability to discover for themselves the underlying rules of a language system. Interactionist Language develops as a result of interplay between the human characteristics of the child and the environment in which the child develops.

22. Traditional and Contemporary Language Classrooms Content and methodology decided with reference to the classroom Content and methodology match learner needs beyond the classroom Learning facts about language rather than how to use it communicatively Learners are actively involved in using language Grammar is taught as rules to be memorized Grammar and language are taught communicatively. Learners do not learn how to become better language learners on their own Learners learn strategies and they apply them to their own learning outside the class. Learners just listen and repeat what the teacher says. They do not express their own ideas. Learners interact with their partners and express their opinions, ideas and feelings.
