Full Title: CALR Linguistics Journal 


Linguistic Field(s): Applied Linguistics; Language Acquisition 

Subject Language(s): English (eng)

Call Deadline: 30-Jul-2016 

Communicative language teaching or the communicative approach has been
celebrated as the ultimate solution to language teaching in the face of
increasing dissatisfaction with the structuralist approaches to language
studies and audiolingualism. The communicative approach emphasizes
communication and meaning in language teaching and promises rapid results in
language learning. The method was hailed in the Arab world and hurriedly
adopted by institutions aiming at offering high quality education. However,
recent studies are starting to question the ability of the communicative
approach to deliver comprehensive solutions to English language teaching,
specifically in non-native contexts.

This call for papers is aimed at questioning some of the exiting principles of
the communicative approach through presenting case studies that recount
applications of the communicative approach in non-native English language
teaching contexts. The overall aim is to revisit the communicative approach
and identify the major components that need to be incorporated in the
communicative approach to support teaching and learning of English in
non-native contexts. Specifically, papers need to reflect on whether or not a
communicative approach should focus on receptive skills before productive ones
or oral before written; whether or not grammatical competence should be an
essential component of communicative competence; whether a functionally-based
communicative approach is more likely to have positive consequences for second
language learners; and whether or not non-native texts should be incorporated
into second language classroom material.
