Abstract:

There is strong evidence in the literature that communicative interaction approaches may be an appropriate method of teaching English language skills, particularly speaking. There is a long-standing deficiency at the school level in the Saudi context; that is, the English language curricula at that particular level are inflexible, and passive learning and traditional, teacher-centred teaching methods are used. However, English language teaching is more collaborative, interactive and communicative at the university level, which may contribute to the development of EFL communicative competence.

Abstract:

The fact that people tend to alternate between languages for various communicative purposes seems to increasingly interest researchers all over the world. Thus, the linguistic phenomenon of codeswitching has been given more academic attention in recent years than ever before. This particular topic has also been infused by new research because of an ongoing pedagogic debate about whether languages other than the target language should be used in foreign languages classroom or not. The debate consists of two major opinions. On one side, adherents claim that use of non-target languages limits nat

Teachers are the key players in the teaching of literacy skills to young learners.

Teachers must plan activities that are learner centred and promotes interaction and participation.

Abstract:

The communicative syllabus in English language teaching was developed in the 1970's as a reaction against the prevailing structuralist method, Inspired by the growing interest in semantics and speech acts, communicative syllabus designers saw language in terms of the meanings speakers need to express, that is, the functions (speech acts) and notions (semantic categories) of language. It is the contention of this thesis that the language taught in a functional notional course may be meaningful, but it is not in any real sense communicative.
