Speakers` Intention / L. Function

C. Teaching steps: PPP vs. TBL
PPP < Audiolingualism (mid 1960s)
=> useful in focus-on-form lessons (e.g. grammar)
=> attacked in the 1990s: teacher-centered; Ss learn in "straight" lines
Presentation Practice Production
no knowledge

providing knowledge

practice

production

=> different from human lang. learning
Task-based learning / instruction
=> learning process < a set of communicative tasks
=> focus on tasks, not structures
=> Ss learn by solving a problem / doing a task
=> student-centered
=> a kind of PPP upside down
PPP variations & alternatives
T. and Ss can decide at which stage to enter the procedure

1
PPP variations & alternatives
=> Trilogy E – S – A
2
Engage = ss’ commitment < T’s initiative
Study = language adoption
Activate = use of language knowledge to do sth.
Trilogy => useful in a skill lesson
=> focus-on-form occurs naturally while ss hear or read, i.e. Ss analyze their own language use AFTER a communicative task
PPP variations & alternatives
=> Trilogy E – S – A
Straight arrows lesson procedure
=> ESA, much like PPP
Boomerang lesson procedure
