Abstract:
The author addresses key questions of foreign language teaching: How does
foreign language learning take place? What is the mechanism of foreign
language use and learning? What are the sources of our understanding of these
processes? What significance does our understanding have for foreign language
teaching? The main argument is that, in order to deal with the complexity of
language learning and meet the current demands for foreign language
competency, we must employ the framework of an empirical, relatively
autonomous discipline of Foreign Language Didactics, constituted as a «normal»
science which strives to understand foreign language learning as its
subject-matter. This constructivist psycholinguistic conception targets
language learning processes in the real world, i.e. as language use in the
context of verbal communication, i.e. comprehension and production in speech
and writing. The processes are represented as taking place in the learner’s
cognitive system for information processing in communicative interaction, a
universal human phenomenon. This perspective leads to systematic options and
strategies for the practical teaching of foreign languages with focus on
English as a world language.
