c. Technique: implementational. Techniques carry out a method which is
consistent with an approach.It is a particular trick, stratagem, or contrivance
used to accomplish an immediate objective. Techniques must be consistent
with a method, and therefore in harmony with an approach as well.2

B. Approach
Following Anthony, approach refers to theories about the nature of
language and language learning that serve as the source of practices and
principles in language teaching. We will examine the linguistic and
psycholinguistic aspects of approach in turn.
1. Theory of language
In theory of language has three different theoretical views of
language and the nature of language proficiency explicitly or implicitly
inform current approaches and methods in language teaching:
First,structural view, the view that language is a system of
structurally related elements for the coding of meaning.The target of
language learning is seen to be the mastery of elements of this system,
which are generally defined in terms of phonological units, grammatical
units, grammatical operations, and lexical items.4
Second, functional view, it is a vehicle for the expression of
functional meaning. This theory emphasizes the semantic and
communicative dimension. A notional syllabus would include not only
elements of grammar and lexis but also specify the topics, notion and
concepts the learners needs to communicate about, for example, English
for Specific Purposes (ESP).5
Third, interactional view, it is a vehicle for the realization of
interpersonal relation and performance of social transactional between
individuals.It sees language as a vehicle for the realization of
interpersonal relations and for the performance of social transactions
between individuals. Language is seen as a tool for the creation and
maintenance of social relations. Language teaching content, according
to this view, may be specified and organized by patterns of exchange

inclinations of learners as interactors.6

C. Design
Design is a definition of linguistic content, a specification for the
selection and organization of content, anda description of the role of
teacher, learner, and teaching material. Design is the level of method
analysis in which we consider a) what the objectives of a method are; b)
how language content is selected and organized within the method, that is,
the syllabus model the method incorporates; c) the types of learning tasks
and teaching activities the method advocates; d) the roles of learners; e) the
roles of teachers; and f) the role of instructional materials. 9
1. Objectives
Objective is the main focus of the method. Process-oriented
objectives is Based on learning behaviors (processes and abilities
acquired from the instruction.). Gattegno writes, “Learning is not seen
as the means of accumulating knowledge but as the means of becoming
a more proficient learner in whatever one is engaged in” (1972: 89). The
degree to which a method has process-oriented or product-oriented
objectives may be revealed in how much emphasis is placed on
vocabulary acquisition and grammatical proficiency and in how
grammatical or pronunciation errors are treated in the method.10

example, ESP courses (English for Specific Purposes) are subject-matter
focused, they choose what to talk about. Structurally based methods,
such as Situational Language Teaching and the Audiolingual Method,
are linguistically focused. Content for teaching is chosen according to
the principles of selection. For instance, in grammar – based courses the
content is chosen and sequenced according to the principle of gradation
of difficulties of grammar items. In communicative – oriental courses
sequencing of the content may be according to the learners’
communicative needs.
Traditionally the term syllabus has been used to refer to the form in
which linguistic content is specified in a course or method. This term
has been more closely associated with product centered methods rather
than with process centered. Thus, the syllabus underlying the Situational
and Audiolingual methods consists of a list of grammatical items and
constructions, often together with a list of vocabulary items. Notional-
functional syllabuses specify the communicative content of a course in
terms of functions, notions, topics, grammar and vocabulary. Such
syllabuses are usually determined in advance of teaching.
The term syllabus,however,is less frequently used in process-based
methods, in which considerations of language content are often
secondary. For example, Counseling-Learning has no language syllabus
as such. Neither linguistic matter nor subject matter is specified in
advance. Learners select content for themselves, by choosing topics they
want to talk about. These are translated into the target language and used
as the basis for interaction and language practice.11

particular activity types. For example, Audiolingualism are often used
dialogue and pattern practice, the silent way used charts and colored
rods, and communicative language theoreticians used information gap.
The diversity of activity types may require different arrangements
and groupings. Depending on if it is an individual activity, pair work or
group work. Activity types in methods thus include the primary
categories of learning and teaching activity the method advocates, such
as: dialogue, responding to commands, group problem-solving,
information-exchange activities, improvisations, question and answer,
or drills.12
4. Learner Roles
The design of an instructional system will be considerably
influenced by how learners are regarded. A method reflects explicit or
implicit responses to questions concerning the learners' contribution to
the learning process. This is seen in the types of activities learners carry
out, the degree of control learners have over the content of learning, the
patterns of learner groupings adopted, the degree to which learners
influence the learning of others, and the view of the learner as processor,
performer, initiator, problem solver.
Recent methodologies are more concern for learner roles. Johnson
and Paulston (1976) spell out learner roles in an individualized approach
to language learning in the following terms:
a) Learners plan their own learning program and thus ultimately assume
responsibility for what they do in the classroom
b) Learners monitor and evaluate their own progress
c) Learners are members of a group and learn by interacting with
others; d) Learners tutor other learners
d) Learners learn from the teacher, from other students, and from other
teaching sources.

Counseling-Learning views learners as having roles that change
developmentally, and Curran (1976) uses an ontogenetic metaphor to
suggest this development. He divides the developmental process into
five stages, extending from total dependency on the teacher in stage 1 to
total independence in stage 5. These learner stages Curran sees as
parallel to the growth of a child from embryo to independent adulthood,
passing through childhood and adolescence.13
5. Teacher Roles
Learner and teacher roles are closely related to each other. They
define the type of interaction in the classroom within the method being
used. Teacher roles are similarly related ultimately both to assumptions
about language and language learning at the level of approach. Some
methods are totally dependent on the teacher as a source of knowledge
and direction; others see the teacher's role as catalyst, consultant, guide,
and model for learning; still others try to "teacher-proof" the
instructional system by limiting teacher initiative and by building
instructional content and direction into texts or lesson plans.14
Teacher roles in methods are related to the following issues:
a) the types of functions teachers are expected to fulfill, whether that of
practice director, counselor, or model, for example;
b) the degree of control the teacher has over how learning takes place;
c) the degree to which the teacher is responsible for determining the
content of what is taught;
d) the interactional patterns that develop between teachers and learners.
Methods typically depend critically on teacher roles and their
realizations. For some methods, the role of the teacher has been
specified in detail. The role of the teacher will ultimately reflect both the
objectives of the method and the learning theory on which the method is

predicated, since the success of a method may depend on the degree to
which the teacher can provide the content or create the conditions for
successful language learning.15
D. Procedure
The Last Level of conceptualization and organization within a method is
what we will refer to as procedure. This encompasses the actual moment-to-
moment techniques, practices, and behaviors that operate in teaching a
language according to a particular method. Tasks and activities are integrated
into lessons and used as the basis for teaching and learning. It is the level at
which we describe how a method realizes its approach and design in classroom
behavior. Three dimensions to a method at the level of procedure:
1) The use of teaching activities to present new language and to clarify and
demonstrate formal, communicative, or other aspects of the target language.
15
Jack C. Richard and Theodore S. Rodgers, op.cit., p.28-29.

Jack Richard and Ted Rodgers, op.cit., p.161-162.
10
2) The ways in which particular teaching activities are used for practicing
language.
3) The procedures and techniques used in giving feedback to learners
concerning the form or content of their utterances or sentences.17
Essentially, then procedure focuses on the way a method handles the
presentation, practice, and feedback phases of teaching. For example, is a
description of the procedural aspect of a beginning Silent Way course based on
Stevick (1980: 44-5):
a) The teacher points at meaningless symbols on a wall chart. The symbols
represent the syllables of the spoken language. The students read the sound
aloud, first in chorus and then individually.
b) After the students can pronounce the sounds, the teacher moves to a second
set of charts containing words frequently used in the language, including
numbers. The teacher leads the students to pronounce long numbers.
c) The teacher uses colored rods together with charts and gestures to lead the
students into producing the words and basic grammatical structures needed.

d) Questions and answers related to the student’s personal experience but
centered on the theme of the dialogue.
e) Study of the basic communicative expressions used in the dialogue or one of
the structures that exemplify the function.
f) Learner discovery of generalizations or rules underlying the functional
expression of structures.
g) Oral recognition, interpretative procedures.
h) Oral production activities, procceding from guided to freer
communication.18

CHAPTER III
CLOSING
A. Conclusion
As we have seen throughout the paper there have been different issues at the
levels of approach, design and procedure, in which any language method can
be presented. However this model does not imply that the development occurs
exactly as it is presented, which allows the possibility for any future
developments of methods out of any of the three categories already discussed.
B. Suggest
So far we have realized that our paper still has many deficiencies. Therefore,
constructive criticism and suggestions are needed to improve our paper
