Communicative Language Teaching is a set of principles about teaching including recommendations about method and syllabus where the focus is on meaningful communication not structure, use not usage.
Among all the methods and approaches to language teaching there is one that may not have a strong basis on its Theory of Language but an excellent background on its Theory of Learning, the Natural Approach, based on the principles of the Theory of Language Acquisition proposed by Stephen Krashen.

Wage Systems and Their Relationship with Job Performance.pdfKing Saud University
Introduction:
In the complex ecosystem of modern work environments, the nexus between wage systems and job performance remains a focal point of organizational strategy and employee motivation (Latham & Wexley, 1982). Traditional wage plans, rooted in time-honored principles of job roles and seniority, have provided a stable foundation for compensation strategies. However, the dynamic nature of today’s global market and the ever-evolving skill sets required by organizations necessitate a more nuanced approach to compensation (Aguinis, 2014). Enter competency-based wage plans, which offer a promising alternative by aligning pay with the specific skills, knowledge, and behaviors exhibited by employees (Lawler & Cohen, 1992). This essay embarks on an exploratory journey into the depths of wage systems, dissecting their components, merits, challenges, and their pivotal role in sculpting an organization's culture and effectiveness. Through this analysis, we aim to uncover the intricacies of how wage systems can be strategically implemented to bolster job performance, thereby fostering an environment where both organizations and employees thrive (Noe, 2005; Aguinis, 2014).

While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
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.

Lexical approach

2. Theory background
Key figures:
Corder – “ holophrases” – (1973)
Hakuta – “ prefabricated patterns” – (1974)
Keller – “ gambits” – (1979)
Peters – “ speech formulae” – (1983)
Dave Willis – “The Lexical Syllabus” - (1990)
Nattinger and deCarrico - (1992)
“The Lexical phrases and language teaching”
Michael Lewis – “The Lexical Approach” - (1993)
3. The viewpoint of languageThe viewpoint of language
“Language consists not of traditional grammar and vocabulary but often
multi-word prefabricated chunks.” Michael Lewis
“The essential idea is that fluency is based on the acquisition of fixed and
semi-fixed prefabricated items, which are available as the foundation for
any linguistic novelty or creativity.” Michael Lewis
It refers to the belief that the building blocks of language learning and
communication are not grammar, functions or notions or some other unit
but lexis. Michael Lewis
According to the Lexical Approach, students should learn 'chunks' of
language, since language is made up of collocations, idioms, and fixed
phrases. Michael Lewis
4. • It is a method of teaching foreign languages.
TheThe LexicalLexical ApproachApproach
• An important part of learning a language consists of being
able to understand and produce lexical phrases as chunks
which can be adapted, combined and recombined to fulfill
different functions or purposes.
• The lexical approach concentrates on developing learners'
proficiency with lexis, or words and word combinations.
Lexis plays the central role.
• Alternative approach to traditional grammatical approach
Chunks which makes fluency reality)
• Minimal pairs, collocations, lexical units are the specific
characteristics of this approach
5. The Lexical ApproachThe Lexical Approach
What are the main features of the lexical approach ?
LEXISLEXIS, rather than grammar, plays a primary role in the acquisition
of language.
LEXISLEXIS is not just vocabulary.
CHUNKSCHUNKS (lexical prefabricated items) represent a significant
portion of a native speaker’s spoken and written output.
Therefore, these chunks of language are vital for fluent production.
6. The Nature of LexisThe Nature of Lexis
For this approach, vocabulary has the central role in linguistic
description.
This approach establishes that the centrality of lexicon to
language structure and the importance of lexical units or
“chunks” that are learned and used as single items
LexicalLexical unitsunits
There is a distinction between vocabulary, traditionally
thought to be constituted of single items, and lexis, which
includes not only the single words but also the word
combinations that we store in our mental lexicon.
7. The Nature of Lexis: examplesThe Nature of Lexis: examples
Words: book , pen
Polywords: by the way , upside down , on the other hand
Collocations: community service, do * a job, my hair , my work
make* bed , promise , coffee , a meal
Fixed expressions: I´ll get it ; We´ll see ; If I were you ...
Sentence frames or heads: The problem is… ,That is all very well, but…
Idioms: dead drunk , to run up a bill
Similes: as old as hills
Connectives: finally , to conclude
Binomials: clean and tidy , back to front
Trinomials: cool, calm , and collected
Conversational gambits: guess what !
8. The role of collocations is also important in lexically based theories of
languages.
Collocations refer to the regular use of words together.
Do my hair/the cooking/my work
Collocations might be described as the words that are placed or found
together in a predictable pattern. Examples range from two word
combinations These language patterns comprise much of speech and
writing
The Nature of LexisThe Nature of Lexis
Collocations: are words that 'sound right' together, even though there is
no grammatical reason they should be used together:
gin & tonic (but never tonic & gin)
high probability (but good chance)
completely useless (not entirely useless)
9. Idioms: are phrases that express something entirely
different than what their literal meaning suggests:
The Lexical ApproachThe Lexical Approach
to pull someone's legto pull someone's leg
to get cold feetto get cold feet
to cut to the chaseto cut to the chase
10. Fixed phrases: are commonly-used expressions:
to close your eyesto close your eyes
to get the impressionto get the impression
larger than lifelarger than life

12. Teaching Objective
To understand and consolidate learning
materials based on lexical rather than
grammatical principles.
Comprehending the most common
lexical words together with lexical
patterns and accesses.
13. SYLLABUS
The lexical syllabus not only subsumes a
structural syllabus, it also indicate how the
structures which make up syllabus should be
exemplified (Willis, 1990).
A lexical syllabus provides a discussion of
some of the major issues in language
teaching methodology ( Willis, 1990) .
Lexical syllabus target how text are used in
classroom
14. LEARNING ACTIVITIES
Teachers’ aims :
Class time should be confined particular
learning strategies dealing with unknown
lexical items and structures.
Teachers can struggle for students’
consciousness and lexical patterns’ benefits.
Students should be relaxed for fear of
causing confusion to the learners’ lexicon.
15. • THE ROLE OF TEACHERS
• Teacher talk is a major source
of learners input
• Organizing technological
systems and creating
environment to help
effectively learners
• Teachers’ methodology in
classroom
• Helping learners manage their
own learning
• THE ROLE OF LEARNERS
• The idea of the teacher as
‘knower’ = the idea of the
learners as ‘discoverer ’
• Data analyst
• Providing participation with
listening , noticing and
reflecting.
• The student is the discoverer

17. PROCEDURE
On the base of the implemented
documents and activities, procedural
sequences change.
Classroom procedures generally include
followings:
a) Attracting students’ attention to lexical
collocations
b) Increasing students’ retention
18. PROCEDURE
C) Teaching individual collocations
d) Making students aware of colocations
E) Extending what students already
know by adding knowledge of collocation
restrictions to know vocabulary.
F) Storing collocations through
encouraging students to keep
a lexical notebook.
19. A proposal from Woolard:
Revising the course books to seek collocations , and
practicing making use of activities developing the
students’ realization to collocation
20. A proposal from Hill:
Teaching individual collocations
Providing students awareness to
collocations.
Giving the knowledge of collocation
and adding them to appropriate
known words.
Supporting students to keep a lexical
notebook.
21. This approach’s characterization still
remains incompletely.
It is still only an opinion .
Teachers should use more exercises
for raising students’ mindfulness
rather than explaining lengthily.
