A Form-Focused Approach to Communication in English

概要

論文の詳細を見る
It has sometimes been argued that grammar is not important in a communicative approach to language. It may well be due to overemphasis on the communicative aspect of the approach, though it has also been argued that grammar is an essential component of 'communicative competence'. After a rough historical review of the place of grammar in a communicative approach and its problems, we will be able to recognize the importance of grammatical instruction. Considering its limited language learning environment, grammatical instruction is necessary in the formal courses at Japanese senior high schools. I will make a practical suggestion of a form-focused approach to communication, with some examples.
