More than half of the contents ofthis new edition has been specially written for this edition. Since the first edition was pub~ lished, ic has become one of the most widely referced to books on teach- ing methods. Since then, however, a great deal has happened in language ‘caching. In planning this new edition, we have therefore made a number of substantial changes. We have divided the book into three main parts: Part Ideals with major trends in ewentieth-cencury language teaching. ‘The chapters in this section are substancally the same as those in the fist edition but include an updated lis of references, Part Il deals with alternative approaches and methods. This section describes approaches and methods that have attracted support zt diffecent times and in different places throughout the last 30 or 50 years, bbut have generally not been widely accepted oz, in some cases, have not maintained substantial followings. The chapters on Total Physical Re- sponse, the Silent Way, Community Language Leaning, and Sug- sgestopedia are shorter versions of chapters from the first edition. Addi. tional and more recent references have been added to these chapters. Because these methods are no longer widely used, a shorter treatment seemed appropriate. Readers requiring fuller discussion ofthese methods should consult the first edition, New chapters on Whole Language, Mul- ‘ple Ineligences, Neurolinguistic Programming, the lexical approach, and Competency-Based Language Teaching complete Part Il. Although these latter approaches share some features with communicative ap- proaches in Part Il, we feel that they ace sufficiently distinct to be grouped with the other approaches discussed in Part I. Part II deals with current communicative approaches. It includes two ‘chapters from the firs edition ~ Communicative Language Teaching and the Natural Approach ~ and new chapters on Cooperative Language Learning, Content-Based Instruction, Task-Based Language Teaching, and the post-methods era, New material has been added to the final sections ofthe chapter on Communicative Language Teaching, and addi tional references have been added to this chapter and to the one on the Natural Approach. Preface ‘The history of language teaching has been characterized by a search for more effective ways of teaching second or foreign languages. For more than 2 hundeed years, debate and discussion within the teaching profes- sion have often centered on issues such as the role of grammar in the language curriculum, the development of accuracy and fluency in teach- ing, the choice of syllabus frameworks in course design, therole of vocab. ulary in language learning, teaching productive and receptive skills, learn- ing theories and their application in teaching, memorization and learning, motivating learners, effective learning strategies, techniques for teaching the four skill, and the role of materials and technology. Al- ‘though much has been done to clarify these and other important ques. sions in language teaching, the teaching profession is continually explor- ing new options for addressing these and other basic issues and the effectiveness of different instructional strategies and methods in the classroom, tthe teaching of any subject matter is usually based on an analysis of the nature of the subject itself and the application of teaching and learn~ ing principles drawn from research and theory in educational psychology. The result is generally referred to 2s a teaching method or
