frame of mind.

With the feeling that the learning is going to

be easy and fun.

First Concert - "Active

Concert"

This involves the active presentation of the

material to be learnt.

For example, in a foreign language course

there might be the dramatic reading of a piece

of text, accompanied by classical music.

Second Concert - "Passive

Review"

The students are invited to relax and listen to

some Baroque music, with the text being read

very quietly in the background.

The music is specially selected to bring the

students into the optimum mental state for theeffortless acquisition of the material.

2. THE SILENT WAY

Caleb Gattegno.

Teachers should be silent as much as possible

Learners should be encourage to produce

language much as possible

1. Learning is facilitated if the

learner discovers or creates.

the teacher and the learner work cooperatively

to reach the educational desired goals.

The learner is not a bench bound listener but

an active contributor to the learning process.

2. Learning is facilitated by

using physical objects.

The Silent Way uses colorful charts

and rods (cuisinere rods) which are of varying

length.

They are used to introduce vocabulary (

colors, numbers, adjectives, verbs) and syntax

(tense, comparatives, plurals, word order )

3. Learning is facilitated by problem solving

involving the material to be learned

Benjamin Franklins words:

Tell me and I forget

Teach me and I remember

Involve me and I learn

The teachers role only in giving minimum repetitions and

correction

leaving the learner struggling to solve problems about the language

and get a grasp of its mechanism.

Advantages

Learning through problem solving looks

attractive especially because it fosters:

creativity,

discovery,

increase in intelligent potency and

long term memory.

Disadvantages

. The learner works in isolation

and communication is lacking badly.

With minimum help on the part of the teacher,

the Silent Way method may put the learningitself at stake.

3. TOTAL PHYSICAL RESPONSE

(TPR)

TPR is a method of teaching language using

physical movement.

to react to verbal input in order to reduce

student inhibitions and lower their affectivefilter. It allows students to react to language

without thinking too much.

7/27/2019 An Overview of Teaching Approaches, Methods And

15/20

Principle and method

Learners act out commands given by the

teacher

These series of commands, are simple at the

beginning (stand up, sit down) but after some

time they may become more complex.

7/27/2019 An Overview of Teaching Approaches, Methods And

16/20

Learners are totally involved in TPR activities

because they are allowed to concentrate on

one thing only: they act out what they've

heard.

There is no pressure on them to speak the

foreign language

ADVANTAGE

Easy to implement/no translation

TPR instruction requires no translation or L1

support.

7/27/2019 An Overview of Teaching Approaches, Methods And

18/20

Trains students to react to language

and not think about it too much

TPR requires an instant reaction. As there is

no time to think during TPR practice,

students can break the bad habit of over-

analyzing language and become more

comfortable with going with the flow, or

guessing from context.

Disadvantage

It is quite difficult to see how this approach

could extend beyond beginner level.
