Mentalism 1.Behaviourism unable to account for creativity of language learning: novel utterances system-building 2. Learning as rule-governed activity (Chomsky) habit formation vs. acquiring rules stimulus triggers search for underlying pattern hypothesis-testing

The cognitive theory 1.Learning as a thinking process. 2.Learner as an active processor of information. 3.Problem-solving tasks, learning strategies, etc.

Affective theory 1.Learning as an emotional process 2.The cognitive-affective interconnection 3.Motivation Language, learner and learning situation levels framework (Dornyei 2001: 18) Process model (ibid: ) 4.Authentic texts/tasks, small group- work, etc.
