Language Principles
Based on Brown, (1998):
"The skills-based approach drew its theoretical roots from
behavioral psychology and structural
linguistics. Specifically, it is based
on the following principles:
(a) The whole is equal to the sum of its parts
(b) There are differences between spoken and written language
(c) Oral language acquisition precedes the development of
literacy
(d) Language learning is teacher-directed and
fact-oriented
(e) Student errors are just like ‘sins’ which should be
eliminated at all cost
