Scott Thornbury - My 7 favourite language teaching methods | #CambridgeDay2020
The ‘method approach’ has been discredited by many scholars on the grounds that individual methods don’t fit the diversity of contexts in which second languages are taught. Nevertheless, training courses still include a component on ‘methods’ and many teachers are curious about the way that methods have evolved, often as a by-product of developments in education and philosophy. Also, methods offer novice teachers a framework with which to structure the seemingly chaotic nature of the language learning process, as they develop their own, more context-sensitive ‘methodology’. In this talk, Scott chooses seven methods that (I will argue) embody sound principles of methodology, and suggest that methods are not – as sometimes claimed – dead.
