Principles of instructed language learning (2004)
Principle 1: Instruction needs to ensure that learners develop both a rich repertoire of formulaic expressions and a rule-based competence
Principle 2: Instruction needs to ensure that learners focus predominantly on meaning
Principle 3: Instruction needs to ensure that learners also focus on form
Principle 4: Instruction needs to be predominantly directed at developing implicit knowledge of the L2 while not neglecting explicit knowledge
Principle 5: Instruction needs to take into account the learner’s ‘built-in syllabus’
Principle 6: Successful instructed language learning requires extensive L2 input
Principle 7: Successful instructed language learning requires opportunities for output
Principle 8: The opportunity to interact in the L2 is central to developing L2 proficiency
Principle 9: Instruction needs to take account of individual differences in learners
Principle 10: In assessing learners’ L2 proficiency it is important to examine free as well as controlled production

Sujet secondaire

When teacher/student make linguistic form the topic of the discourse even though no error has been committed
