Question 10

Consider the approaches to language learning. A key difference between the Audio-lingual Method (ALM) and Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) is how they view and address errors made by learners. Which statement accurately reflects this distinction?

Accepted Answer

B. ALM considers errors as 'bad habits' to be immediately corrected to ensure accuracy, whereas CLT views errors as learning opportunities and tolerates them if they don't impede communication. — The Audio-lingual Method is behaviorist, viewing errors as ingrained 'bad habits' that must be corrected immediately and systematically. In contrast, CLT prioritizes fluency and meaningful communication, so errors are tolerated as part of the natural learning process, provided they do not hinder understanding. Immediate correction is less emphasized in CLT unless it impedes communication.

Answer

A. ALM views errors as a natural part of the learning process and focuses on meaning over form, while CLT prioritizes immediate correction to prevent bad habits.

Answer

C. Both methods advocate for learners to self-correct independently without any teacher intervention.

Answer

D. Both ALM and CLT primarily use explicit grammar rules to prevent errors from occurring.
