AFL7020 Language Teacher Education, Lecture 6: Presentation Practice ProductionAchilleas Kostoulas
Presentation-Practice-Production (PPP) is a method for teaching foreign language structures through three phases: presentation, practice, and production. In the presentation phase, the teacher introduces new language forms. The practice phase involves controlled activities for students to use the new forms correctly. Finally, in the production phase students engage in free activities using their new language skills. PPP aims to move learning from teacher control to greater student freedom and accuracy to fluency. However, some argue it is not effective for long-term language learning outside the classroom.
The document provides guidance on forming yes/no and WH- questions in English. It discusses using forms of the verb "be" like "is" and "are" to form questions in the present progressive tense. For yes/no questions with verbs like "do", "does", and "did", it explains starting the question with the verb. For WH- questions, it outlines placing the WH- word first followed by the appropriate form of "do", "does", or "be" plus the subject and verb. Examples are given for forming different types of questions based on statements.
1) The study examined the effects of two types of explicit grammar instruction (Processing Instruction and Comparison Instruction) on 135 primary school students learning German.
2) Students who received Processing Instruction, which provided structured input activities focusing on form-meaning connections, performed better on comprehension and production tests immediately after and 3 months later compared to students who received Comparison Instruction.
3) Both groups improved on all tasks over time, demonstrating the benefits of explicit grammar instruction for young foreign language learners.
CTE grammar for ESL Teachers Present PerfectT. Leo Schmitt
