Distinctive characteristics of CBI

These tasks are not important but they still need to be done. The question you have to address yourself: Who can do this for you?

5. Select authentic texts and tasks. Authenticity is another significant feature of CBI. Texts and tasks used in CBI come from the real world. It is true that bringing and using authentic material in the class modifies its original purpose, but it is also true that the use of authentic material promotes the learning of the culture of the target language.

4. Choose content for its relevance to students’ lives, interests, and/or academic goals. Content is closely related to the students’ needs and instructional settings. For instance, in high schools and universities content parallels the several subjects that learners study.

3. Involve students actively in all phases of the learning process. One of the main characteristics of the CBI classroom is that it is learner-centered, not teacher-centered. Students do not depend on the teacher to control the learning experience. Students play a more active role in the CBI classroom, creating and participating actively in the construction of knowledge.

2. Integrate skills. CBI advocates for an integrated skills approach to language teaching. For example, a regular lesson may begin with any skill or focus such as intonation or any other linguistic feature.

1. Base instructional decisions on content rather than language criteria CBI permits the choice of content. It is the content itself that determines the pedagogical decisions on selection and sequencing. With regard to this, points out that CBI “allows the choice of content to dictate or influence the selection and sequencing of language items”

What is CBI?

Tasks that are not urgent nor important should be eliminated so you will not waste time doing them.
