9. Multiple intelligences
Language is not limited to a linguistics perspectives but encompasses all aspects of communication.
Language is integrated with music, bodily activity, interpersonal relationships, and so on.

10. Musical Intelligence: sensitive to rhythm, pitch or melody.
Verbal/Linguistic Intelligence:      effective in using language in a variety of ways--to convince others to do something, to remember information, and to talk about language itself.
Logical-Mathematical Intelligence:       good at categorizing, classifying, inferencing, generalizing, calculating, and hypothesis testing.
Visual/Spatial Intelligence:      sensitive to form, space, color, line, and shape. Good at graphically representing visual or spatial ideas.
Bodily/Kinesthetic Intelligence:       express ideas and feelings with the entire body.
Musical Intelligence:       sensitive to rhythm, pitch or melody.
Interpersonal Intelligence:      sense another person's moods, feelings, motivations, and intentions
respond effectively to other people in some pragmatic way
Intrapersonal Intelligence:       Having an accurate picture of yourself and being aware of your inner moods and intentions

12. Use of L1 is highly discouraged in the classroom.
The development of language skills is a matter of habit formulation.
Students practice particular patterns of language through structured dialogue and drill until response is automatic.
Structured patterns in language are taught using repetitive drills.
The emphasis is on having students produce error free utterances.
This method of language learning supports kinesthetic learning styles.
Only everyday vocabulary and sentences are taught.

13. Backward build up drill (expansion drill)
Repetition drill
Chain drill
Single-slot substitution drill
Multiple-slot substitution drill
Transformation drill
Question-and-answer drill
Use of minimal pairs
Complete the dialogue
Grammar game

14. Disadvantages
Human language use is not imitated behavior but is created anew from underlying knowledge of abstract rules (Chomsky, 1966)
Basic method of teaching is repetition, speech is standardized and pupils turn into parrots who can reproduce many things but never create anything new or spontaneous.
Ss are unable to transfer knowledge to real communication outside the classroom

15. Community language learning

16. The techniques of Community Language Learning
Tape recording student conversation
Transcription
Reflection on experience
Reflective listening
Human computer
Small group tasks

17. Cooperation, not competition
Students feel in control, not the teacher
‘counseling’, rather than teaching
Ss’ native language builds a bridge from the known to the unknown
The syllabus is generated primarily by the students
Teacher-student-centered
