Teaching Methods
The approach adopted, generally speaking, is an action-oriented one in so far as it views
users and learners of a language primarily as ―social agents‖: members of society who
have tasks to accomplish in a given set of circumstances, in a specific environment and
within a particular field of action. The language activities form part of a wider social
context. We speak of ―tasks‖ in so far as the actions are performed by one or more
individuals strategically using their own specific competences to achieve a given result.
The action-based approach also takes into account the cognitive, emotional and volitional
resources and the full range of abilities applied by the individual as a social-agent.
