24、章 communicative language teaching又称：功能意念法（ the functional-notional approach ）the clt is an approach to foreign or second language teaching which emphasizes that the goal of language learning is communicative competence. teaching materials used with the communicative approach often teach the language

25、 needed to express and understand different kinds of functions. the approach follows a national syllabus and emphasizes the processes of communication to get information, and using language for social interaction with other people. 一、backgroundthe origins of the clt are to be found in the changes in

26、 the british language teaching tradition dating from the late 1960s. in the late sixties, the current slt was questioned. british applied linguistics began to emphasize the fundamental dimension of language teaching at that time- the functional and communicative potential of language. scholars argue

28、ge 1. language is a system for the expression of meaning.2. the primary function of language is for interaction and communication.3. the structure of language reflects its funciational and communicative uses.4. the primary units of language are not merely its grammatical and structural features, but

55、 the manner in which classroom activities are organized, the indirect role the teacher is required to assume in directing and monitoring learner performance, the responsibility placed upon learners, and the materials used.第八章community language learning it is a method of second and foreign language t

56、eaching developed by charles curran. cll is an application of counseling learning(咨询学习法)to second and foreign language teaching and learning. it uses techniques developed in group counseling to help people with psychological and emotional problems. the method makes use of group learning in small or

57、large groups. these groups are the “community”. the method places emphasis on the learners personal feelings and their reactions to language learning. learners say things which they want to talk about, in their native language. the teacher (known as “counselor”) translates the learners sentences into the foreign language, and the learner then repeats this to other members of the group. 一、background1、rogerian counseling 2、humanistic techniques：the whole person3、language alternation二、approach1、theory of languagetraditio
