A Methodological Model for Integrating CLT with GTM in OET
Journal Title: Journal of Education and Literature - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 4
Abstract
How to improve non-English major college students’ oral skills is an important and pressing topic for the reform of college ELT. Based on the analysis of the traditional teaching method and reflections on problems with current ELT in colleges, the paper attempts to explore a systematic methodological model for ELT, which reflects the reconciliation between CLT and GTM and stresses the dialectical unity of accuracy and fluency as well as form and meaning. The teaching objectives are achieved through a step-by-step progression from accuracy-oriented activities to fluency-oriented activities.
