SECTION A

QUESTION 1

1.1

(a).Language is a system that is used for expressing meaning and its chief purpose is interaction.

.The primary units of a language are not its grammatical or structural features , but categories of
functional and communicative meaning as found in written and spoken discourse.

.All four basic communicative skills (listening, speaking, reading and writing) need to be integrated and
developed simultaneously.

.Communicative competence implies grammatical, sociolinguistic, strategic and discourse competence.

.Language can be used for basic interpersonal communication skills (BICS); cognitive academic language
proficiency (CALP) can be developed.

.Error tolerance is greater in this approach.

(b)As a teacher, you need to have a through knowledge of how the home language that you teach
works and changes so that you can help learners to develop their communicative competence fully. If
you teach groups of mixed culture and race, you also have to bear in mind that many of the learners in
your class may not be home language speakers of the language used for instruction (most likely
English). This further complicates your task because you cannot take for granted that all learners
operate from the same frame of reference or level of ability. Therefore, you have to used different
activities and levels of explanation to meet individual needs.

The traditional role of a teacher as a unique source of all knowledge has changed. You have to act as an
organizer of knowledge, an initiator of activities, guiding and advising rather than prescribing or drilling
a specific aspect of language .You must facilitate the communication process between learners and
monitor their interaction with a variety of language texts or discourse . You have to establish situations
that are likely to promote communication in both formal and informal settings, Sometimes you will be a
communicator such as when you encourage learners to share their ideas and opinions.
