The emphasis on speech vs. writing in teaching methods.

Learning meaning through direct experience or translation.

Induction (students discover rules) vs. explication (rules explained).

Focuses on reading/writing, uses translation to explain meanings.

Includes reading passages, vocabulary lists, and translation exercises.

Effective for large classes and self-study; adaptable to theories.

Ignores speaking skills, unsuitable for young children.

Emerges from Enlightenment focusing on natural human development.

NM requires highly skilled and creative teachers to engage students.

NM is best implemented in small class sizes for effective learning.

Language acquisition follows comprehension, speech, then reading/writing.

Grammar is learned through exposure and context, not rules directly.

DM developed from NM but adds systematic language teaching principles.

Emphasizes a direct link between language and meaning, no native language use.

TPR enhances memory through physical actions in response to language commands.

TPR shares ideas with DM but emphasizes physical activity more.

An approach to language teaching that avoids using the native language and focuses on spoken communication.

A concept in language learning that suggests emotional factors can impact language acquisition.

A language teaching method that uses physical movement to reinforce language learning.

An approach prioritizing real-life communication and practical use of language in teaching.

Integrates language learning with specific subject matter, emphasizing content understanding.

An approach focusing on using tasks as a basis for language learning through practical activity.

A method using computer programs for individualized language instruction.

Conveying meaning through computer programs with automated language skills.

Grammar is taught through structured exercises within CALL programs.

There isn't a single method that works for all language learners.

A method that emphasizes repetition and behaviorist principles for spoken language.

A psychological theory that views learning as stimulus-response through repetition and reinforcement.

Development of speaking ability emphasized in teaching methods.

Learning grammar through discovery rather than direct explanation.

Sequence of language learning: listening, speaking, reading, writing.

Learning meanings through experiences in context.

Theory that language learning is a process of stimulus and response.

Repetitive exercises focusing on specific sentence structures and vocabulary.

Strong interest from teachers at the start of ALM's implementation.

ALM did not succeed in producing fluent speakers as promised.

Critiques from Chomsky challenged the foundations of ALM.

Focus on real-life situations, flexibility, and learner-centeredness.

Inconsistency due to eclectic nature and lack of a defined method.

CLT is widely used and integrates aspects from various teaching methods.
