Cognitive Code Theory is a theory of second language acquisition that merged Chomsky's Transformational Grammar with Carroll's cognitive psychology. It views language learning as a conscious process of acquiring mental control over phonological, grammatical, and lexical patterns through analyzing these patterns as a system of rules. The key principles of Cognitive Code Theory are that learning occurs through cognitive memory structures, language learning should involve meaningful practice, and learners should discover grammar rules inductively. While it emphasized understanding language structure over usage, some criticisms are that it is more of a theoretical framework than a teaching method and ignores other influences on learning like culture, biology, and past experience.
language learning :
It is the result of direct instruction in the rules of language
And it certainly is not an age-appropriate activity for young learners.
In language learning, students have conscious knowledge of the new language and can talk about that knowledge.
They can fill in the blanks on a grammar page.
language acquisition :
Children acquire language through a subconscious process during which they are unaware of grammatical rules.
They readily acquire the language to communicate with friends.
In order to acquire language, the learner needs a source of natural communication. The emphasis is on the text of the communication and not on the form.
Young students who are in the process of acquiring English get plenty of “on the job” practice.

Acculturation Theory: Nativization/ Denativization Theory.
It discusses the roles of the two theories in learning a second language, socio-cultural, and affective factors in language teaching/learning, and differentiates the terms nativization from denativization by highlighting their advantages and disadvantages.
Communicative Language Teaching is the cornerstone for approaches that have shifted from a grammar-based language view to a functional view of language where communication is the main objective. Such approaches are CBI (Content-based instruction) and TBI (Task-based instruction). Today, both CBI and TBI are the leading approaches most teachers are currently using to teach a second/foreign language around the world. Both approaches have been proven to be effective, and the most important thing is that students are truly learning to use language to communicate their ideas to different audiences.
There are many theories on learning language. Theses theories have impacted First language and second language teaching methodology.Theories on language learning and teaching have evolved from the fields of psychology and linguistics. What follows here is a brief discussion on three major theories of language learning, namely, Behaviorist, cognitive and social interactionist theory.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

4. Definition
• Cognitive-code learning refers to a theory of second
language teaching and learning.
• Cognitive-code learning theory (CCLT) is accepted as a
merger of Chomsky’s Transformational Grammar and
Carroll’s Psychology (Carroll, 1965).
5. Definition
TGG(Transformational
Generative Grammar)
• Language is rule-governed
and creative.
• Language includes deep and
surface structures.
• Competence and performance
are important aspects.
Cognitive-code=
rules + creative +
competence + mental +
social factors.
Gestalt Psychology(Carroll’s
Psychology)
“Learning should be holistic.
Learning should be a
combination of mental and
social factors.”
6. Carroll’s definition
According to Carroll:
"...learning a language is a process of acquiring conscious
control of the phonological, grammatical, and lexical
patterns of the second language, largely through study
and analysis of these patterns as a body of knowledge."
(Carroll, 1966:102).
7. (1)Theoretical background
• Cognitive psychologists and applied linguists, such
as John B. Carroll and Kenneth Chastain,
advocated the cognitive-code approach in 1960s to
the study of a second language as an alternative to
the audio-lingual method prevalent at the time.
• To a great extent, cognitive-code learning theory was
based on contemporary developments in
transformational grammar and the generative
theory of language that developed in the 1950s and
1960s.
8. (1)Theoretical background
Cognitive-code learning theory (CCLT) is a theory of L1 and L2
studies and research. CCLT is said to have briefly replaced
behaviorism in the late 1960s. At this time, Chomsky’s theory of
Transformational generative Grammar, which claimed language is
rule-governed and creative, strongly emphasized rule-governed
nature of language and language acquisition, rather than habit
formation: this trend gave rise to CCLT in which language learners
are encouraged to work out grammar rules deductively for
themselves.
9. (1)Theoretical background
Cognitive code-learning Theory has the influences of
Cognitive Psychology. CCLT is also based on Gestalt
psychology which states learning should be holistic.
The cognitive approach is sometimes considered the
modern version of the grammar-translation method.
10. Purpose
1
• CCLT is aimed to foster competence.
2
• CCLT emphasizes the central role of
cognition in the conscious learning of
rules of language as a code.
3
• The main emphasis is on meaningful
practice.
11. Difference between “Audio-lingual approach” and “Cognitive-code approach”:
Audio-lingual approach Cognitive-code approach
*Language is a process of habit
formation.
*This approach was based on
behavourist theory.
* It’s a techer-centerd approach.
* It includes dialogues, drills etc.
*Language is a process of
conscious mental activity.
*This approach was reaction to
behavourist theory.
* It’s a student-centerd
approach.
*It includes discussion, self-
assessment and presentations
etc.
12. Significance of Cognitive-code approach:
• According to Carroll (1966, p. 102), “the theory attaches
more importance to the learner’s understanding of the
structure of the foreign language than to the facility in
using that structure, since it is believed that provided the
student has a proper degree of cognitive control over the
structures of the language, facility will develop
automatically with use of the language in meaningful
situations.”
13. Principles of Cognitive-code Learning Theory:
The principles are as follows:
• 1. Learning occurs through cognitive memory structures, which
perceive, process, store for short- or long-term recall and retrieve
information, located in the brain. Learning occurs through internal
processing of information.
• 2. The central precept of cognitive-code theory is meaningful
practice in a second language.
• 3. Language is taken as complex and rule-governed activity.
14. Principles of Cognitive-code Learning Theory:
• 4. Learning should be holistic.
• 5. Thinking, comprehension, and memory must be emphasized.
• 6. Classrooms activities are designed to encourage learners to work
out grammar rules for themselves through inductive reasoning.
• 7. Content over form must be emphasized.
• 8. Lessons must be highly structured around a deductive process,
often giving the ‘rule of the day.’
15. Principles of Cognitive-code Learning Theory:
• 9. Cognitive control works as follows:
Phonemes are to be learnt before words, words before phrases,
clauses before sentences, and simple sentences before compound,
complex, and compound- complex sentences.
• 10. The learner is an active processor of information processing;
He/she is a thinking being. So, he/she must be at the center of
learning process. Learning will only take place, when the matter to
be learnt is meaningful to the learner.
17. Strength of the Cognitive-code Learning
Theory:
CCLT has some advantages:
• 1. It revived the re-emergence of grammar in the classroom.
• 2. It put more emphasis on guided discovery of the rules: this is the
rule-governed nature of language.
• 3. It rejected the habit formation of Behaviorist theory. There is
language acquisition rather than habit formation.
• 4. It stressed on the learning of the rules via meaningful practice and
creativity.
• 5. It practically focuses on the individual student and his/her learning
process and progress.
18. Weaknesses of Cognitive-code Learning Theory:
• 1. CCLT is essentially a theoretical proposal because it
did not lead to the development of any teaching method
in relation to classroom procedures and activities.
• 2. As a theory, it often ignores past experiences and
culture influence while we process information.
• 3. It is a depersonalized theory; in other words, it does
not take into consideration feelings or unconscious
actions or reactions.
19. Weaknesses of Cognitive-code Learning Theory:
• 4. Another important criticism is that biology, genetics,
culture, and past experience have not been sufficiently
tested as factors in mental processing.
• 5. Another disadvantage is that it is extremely time
intensive on the part of the foreign language teacher or
educator, who, acts as a facilitator, has to invest a huge
amount of time and effort on a per student basis.
20. Conclusion:
CCT is largely seen as an updated variety of the traditional
grammar-translation method, with an attendant goal of overcoming
the shortfalls of the audio- lingual approach. The Cognitive-code
view of learning suggests that information is gathered and processed
by our brain, and information processing is a cognitive view of
learning.
