6
Desuggestive learning
“free, without a mildest pressure, liberation of previously suggested programs to restrict intelligence and spontaneous acquisition of knowledge, skills and habits.” To enhance learning by lowering the affective filter of learners To activate the paraconscious part of the mind

Presentation A preparatory stage in which students are helped to relax and move into a positive 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 now 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 the effortless acquisition of the material. Practice The use of a range of games, puzzles, etc. to review and consolidate the learning.

Chapter 9. Whole language

Decoding approach Focus on separate components of language : grammar, vocabulary, phonics Holistic view of language It is not possible to understand learning of any kind by analyzing small chunks of the learning system. The whole is greater than the sum of its parts

Knowledge creation, emphasizing students' interpretations of text and free expression of ideas in writing (often through daily journal entries). Emphasis on high-quality and culturally-diverse literature Reading and writing for real purposes Focus on motivational aspects of literacy, emphasizing the love of books and engaging reading materials

Q: What are the advantages and disadvantages?

Criticism by those who advocate "back to basics" pedagogy
Authentic texts are not sufficient to support second language learning. Without special attention, skill development will not automatically follow. Teachers need specially developed materials to support instruction Fluency at the expense of accuracy Based on a limited body of scientific research
