Theories of Teaching in Language Teaching
  1. Science-research conceptions
    1. OPERATIONALIZING LEARNING PRINCIPLES: Focused on memory, transfer, motivation and other factors important in learning.
      1. AUDIOLINGUALISM: learning could be successfully managed three elements: a stimulus, a response, and reinforcement.
        1. TASK-BASED LANGUAGE TEACHING: classroom tasks which apply negotiation of meaning should form the basis of the language teaching curriculum, to facilitate practice of language forms and communicative functions. Type of tasks: information-gap tasks, opinion-gap tasks, and reasoning-gap tasks.
          1. LEARNING TRAINING: Emphasis on on the cognitive styles and learning strategies used by learners in carrying out different classroom learning tasks.
          2. FOLLOWING A TESTED MODEL: training model was developed in which teachers were taught the differences between display questions (those for which answers are known in advance) and referential questions (those for which answers are not known) and the advantages of providing longer wait-time after questions.
            1. DOING WHAT EFFECTIVE TEACHERS DO: This involves identifying effective teachers and then studying their teaching practices. Effective teachers are typically defined as those whose students perform better on standardized achievement tests.
            2. Theory- philosophy conceptions
              1. Theory-based approaches: the theory emphasizing the method is determined through the use of reason or rational thought.
                1. Communicative Language Teaching: Is an attempt to operationalize the concept of communicative competence and to apply it across all levels of language program design, from theory, to syllabus design, to teaching techniques.
                  1. Silent Way: It is based on a set of requirements and beliefs as to how learning takes place in adults. It is a self-evident
                  2. Values based Approaches: It is a theory of teaching to develop a teaching model from the values one holds about teachers, learners, classrooms, and the role of education in society some examples “team teaching,” “humanistic approaches,” the “learner-centered curriculum” movement, and “reflective teaching.”
                    1. Understand the theory and the principles.  Select syllabi, materials, and tasks based on the theory.  Monitor your teaching to see that it conforms to the theory
                  3. Art-Craft Conceptions:
                    1. Explore to develop teaching as a unique set of personal skills which teachers apply in different ways according to the demands of specific situations. There are no general methods of teaching; rather, teachers should develop an approach to teaching which allows them to be themselves and do what they feel is best.
                      1. Treat each teaching situation as unique.  Identify the particular characteristics of each situation.  Try out different teaching strategies.  Develop personal approaches to teaching.
