COMMUNICATIVE
LANGUAGE TEACHING
(CLT)
 Also known as communicative approach (CA) ,
 It is an approach to language teaching that emphasizes interaction as both the means and the
ultimate goal of study.
 is a non-methodical system that does not use a textbook series to teach the target language but
works on developing sound oral and verbal skills prior to reading and writing.
CHARACTERISTICS
 emphasizes to engage the learners in real-life situations in the classroom so that they can
understand how to communicate in the real world.
 gives the importance of the necessity of the learners and attempts to explain it.
 errors are considered in a natural phenomenon.
 focuses on the fluency of the learners rather than the accuracy of the grammar and learners
acquire their accuracy gradually and naturally.
 believes that communication is the fundamental objectives of language and the learners
need to develop all the skills of language (LSRW).
 offers the opportunity to join in teacher-learner and learner-learner interaction in the
classroom.
 focuses on the use of techniques which encourage the learners in participating in the natural
environment, for instance, group and pair work etc.
 agrees with the perception of individual work.
 grammar is the second option of the learners and they discover and internalize the
grammatical rules and functions themselves.
 uses authentic language materials so that the students find the similarity between the
classroom activities and the real world.
PRINCIPLES
 Learners learn through using it to communicate
 Authentic and meaningful communication should be the goal of
classroom activities
 Fluency is an important dimension of communication
 Communication involves the integration of different language skills
 Learning is a process of creative construction and involves trial and
error
TECHNIQUES USED TO DEVELOP
COMMUNICATIVE COMPETENCY
 language games
 thinking tasks
 role play
 retrieving scrambled sentences or pictures
 group works or pair works
MERITS
 learning will be a self-generating experience
 working in group or pairs increases confidence
 as there is no inhibition by grammatical rules or
structures, students are free to speak
 fluency, accuracy and appropriateness are
acquired
 co-operation in language acquisition is gained
DEMERITS
 an average teacher cannot succeed to help students in
attaining communication competency
 students may not take initiative to speak
 due to over enthusiasm, it is likely that other approaches
and methods are neglected
 detailed syllabus and textbooks are yet to be designed
 selection and grading of language items are not favoured
TASK BASED
LANGUAGE LEARNING
(TBLL)
 It is an approach based on the use of tasks as the core unit of planning and instruction in language
teaching.
 Engaging learners in task work provides a better context for the activation of learning processes.
 Language learning is believed to depend on immersing students not in “comprehensible input” but in
tasks that require them to negotiate meaning and engage in natural and meaningful communication.
 It draws on multiple principles.
• Activities that involve real communications are essential for language learning.
• Activities in which language is used for carrying out meaningful tasks promote learning.
• Language that is meaningful to the learner supports the learning process.
 TBLT was popularized by Prabhu while working in Bangalore, India. He noticed that his students
could learn language just as easily with a non-linguistic problem as when they were concentrating on
linguistic questions.
CHARACTERISTICS
 Students are encouraged to use language creatively and spontaneously through tasks and problem
solving
 Students focus on a relationship that is comparable to real world activities
 Assessment is primarily based on task outcome
 It is student-centred
ADVANTAGES
 is applicable and suitable for students of all ages and backgrounds.
 Students will have a much more varied exposure to language
 Students are free to use whatever grammar and vocabulary they know, rather than just the target language
of the lesson.
 helps students pay more attention to the relationship between the for and meaning.
 allows meaningful communication.
 Students will be exposed to a whole range of lexical phrases, collocations and patterns as well as
language forms.
 encourage students to be more ambitious in the language they use.
DISADVANTAGES
 There is no acquisition of new grammar or vocabulary features.
 Not all students are or will be motivated.
 Some students need more guidance and will not or cannot `notice´ language forms (grammar) or other elements
of accuracy.
 requires a high level of creativity and initiative on the part of the task.
 Students typically translate and use a lot of their L1(mother tongue) rather than the target language in
completing the tasks.
 requires individual and group responsibility and commitment on the part of students. If students are lacking in
these qualities, task based instruction may be difficult to implement.
CO-OPERATIVE
LEARNING
 It is the instructional use of small groups so that the students work
together to maximize their own and each other’s learning
 Not all groups are cooperative groups. It takes time, skills and
structure to form them
WHY DO WE NEED CO-OPERATIVE
LEARNING?
 promotes student achievement
 Increases retention of knowledge
 Students' happiness increased for learning experience
 develops oral communication
 deepens students' social skills
 promote students' self-esteem
TECHNIQUES
 Jigsaw
• Students are put into a group of four or five students and work on some material.
• After discussion they become an expert in that particular material.
• The experts from each group go to other groups and teach or discuss with others what they learned.
 Think-pair-share
• students think silently about a question posed by the teacher.
• Individuals pair up during the second step and discuss their thoughts.
• the pairs share their responses with other pairs, other teams, or the entire group
 Brainstorming
• The class is divided into small groups (4 to 6).
• There is one recorder.
• A question is given to the students that may have many answers.
• Students are given time to think about answers.
• After they have had time to think they share responses with the group round robin style.
• The recorder writes down the answers of the group members
 Numbered heads together
• A team of four is formed.
• Each member is given numbers of 1, 2, 3, 4. There are questions for the group.
• Groups work together to answer the question so that each member has the answer.
• Teacher calls out a number (two) and each two is asked to give the answer.
 Group investigation
 Circle the cage
 Partners
• Divide the group into teams of four.
• Partners move to one side of the room.
• Half of each team is given an task to complete and to teach the other half.
• Partners work to learn.
• Teams go back together with each set of partners teaching the other set.
• Partners quiz and help each other. Team reviews how well they learned.
BENEFITS
 Promotes self-esteem and makes one feel better about themselves, school and others
 Promotes higher achievement, develops social skills including listening, taking turns, conflict resolution,
leadership, & team work
 Teaches one to co-operate with others and do their best
 Welcomes one to benefit from their classmates knowledge and thought
 Makes students appreciate differences & diversity
 Removes damaging competition between & among students and create competition among groups
