A “method” is not a relevant issue in such a connection between approach and technique. As your teacher-trainees develop and carry out classroom techniques, they can benefit by grounding everything they do in well-established principles of language learning and teaching. In so doing, they will be less likely to bring a pre-packaged and possibly ineffective method to bear, and more likely to be directly responsive to their students’ purposes and goals.

(BROWN, H. Douglas. Beyond Method: Toward a principled approach to language learning and teaching. Anais do XIII ENPULI. 1995 p.45)

Which statement is correct according to Brown?

• A. The classes should be teacher-centered to establish students’ purposes and goals.
• B. The author believes that a set of exercises should be done repeatedly to improve students’ fluency.
• C. Principles of language learning and teaching should be the more important for teachers’ planning than the method itself.
• D. The discussion about methods and their effectiveness, although controversial, should guide teachers to adopt the most appropriated method for their students.

Gabarito: C
