Journal Title: IMPACT : International Journal of Research in Humanities, Arts and Literature ( IMPACT : IJRHAL ) - Year 2019, Vol 7, Issue 3
Abstract
This article attempts to explicatethe trajectory of the term Eclecticism,its origin and objectives, principles and characteristics, merits and demerits, conceptions and misconceptions in the contextof second language teachings and learning. This is an approach, which came into second language teaching and learning to argue against the adherence teachers, material designers and programme developers to a single method in the language teaching and learning scenario. It is not a method in itself but an approach deriving its sources from various other existing methods to build its principles and characteristics to suit the learners’ needs. Hence, it can be called a pluralistic approach or a mixed approach in a second language teaching and learning.This paper suggests five simple tips to the teachers to be more eclectic and better understand their understanding of teaching-learning functions and thereby alter their teaching methods in the complex situations.
