Cognitive Perspectives on English Learning Methods: Efficiency and Achievements Under Task-Based Instruction
Journal Title: Education Science and Management - Year 2023, Vol 1, Issue 2
Abstract
In the epoch where globalization and knowledge economy predominate, mastery of English, fortified by its potent global stance, emerges as pivotal for multinational communication. Pursuant to this paradigm, English educators are impelled to refine teaching methodologies and accentuate perpetual learning. A comprehensive investigation into bilingual learning outcomes and efficacy employing Grammar Translation Method (GTM), Cognitive Direct Method (CDM), and Eclectic Bilingual Approaches (EBA) is herein presented. Methodologically, a quantitative experimental design complemented by qualitative interviewing was employed over a six-month experimental project, involving ninety-three university students enrolled in an intensive English language programme. The cohort was stratified into three distinctive learning groups: those exposed to GTM, CDM, and EBA, respectively. A determination of the most potent approach for English instruction represented the focal intent of this inquiry. Interviews, conducted by the researcher and teaching assistants, aimed to unearth the motivational substrates underpinning students’ English language acquisition endeavors. A meticulous cross-analysis proffers efficient language learning models, underscoring the pertinence of innovative learning approaches for English.
