2. THE HISTORY OF AUDIO-LINGUAL METHOD
The emergency of the Audiolingual
Method resulted from the increased
attention given to foreign language
teaching in the United States toward the
end of the 1950s. The need for a radical
change and rethinking of foreign
language teaching methodology (most of
which was still linked to the Reading
Method) was prompted by the launching
of the first Russian satellite in 1957.
3. The U.S. government acknowledged the need for a more intensive effort to teach
H foreign languages in order to prevent Americans from becoming isolated from
scientific advances made in other countries. The National Defense Act (1958),
I among other measures, provided funds for the study and analysis of modern
languages, for the development of teaching materials, and for the training of
teachers.
S Teachers were encouraged to attend summer institutes to improve their
knowledge of foreign languages and to learn the principles of linguistics and the
T new linguistically based teaching methods. Language teaching specialists set
about developing a method that was applicable to condition in U.S. colleges and
university classrooms. They drew on the earlier experience of the army programs
O and the Aural-Oral or Structural Approach developed by Fries and his colleges,
adding insights taken from behaviorist psychology. This combination of
R structural linguistic theory, contrastive analysis, aural-oral procedures, and
behaviorist psychology led to the Audiolingual Method.

4. THE PRINCIPLES
• THE GOALS OF TEACHERS WHO USE THE AUDIO-LINGUAL METHOD?
1. Able to use the target language communicatively
2. Learn to use language auctomatically without stopping to think
3. Using this method, students are supposed to form new habit in the target language
• THE RULE OF THE TEACHER
• The teacher is like an orchestra leader, directing and controlling the language behavior of the students and
also, responsible for providing her student with a good modal for imitation
• THE RULE OF STUDENT
They are imitators and having to follow the teacher direction and respond as accurately and as rapidly as
possible
• THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE LEARNING PROCESSES
New vocabulary and stuctural patterns are presented through diologue
The dialogue including grammar and pattern in the sentence are learn through immitation and repetition
Drill
Reading and written work is based upon the oral-work
5. • THE EMPHASIZING
Vocabulary, mastering system and grammatical patterns are kept in it. The natural
order of skill presentation is adhered to listening, speaking, reading, and writing
• THE ROLE OF STUDENTS’ NATIVE LANGUAGE
The habbits of students’ native language are thought to interfere with the students’
attempts to master the target language. Therefore, the target language is used in the classroom,
not the students’ native language. A contrastive analysis between the students’ native language
and the target language will reveal where a theacher should expect the most interference.
• ACCOMPLISHING
each question the test would focus on only one point of the language at a time. Students might
be asked to distinguish between words in minimal pair, for example, or to supply an apropriate
verb form in a sentence
• THE TEACHER`S RESPOND TO THE STUDENT ERRORS
student errors are to be avoided if at all possible through the teacher’s awareness of where the
students will have difficulty and restriction of what they are thought to say.
6. THE PRINCIPLES
• THE NATURE OF STUDENT-TEACHER AND STUDENT-STUDENT INTERACTION
There is student – to – student interaction in chain drills or when
students take different roles in dialogue, but this interaction is teacher-
directed. Most of the interaction is between teacher and students as is
initiated by the teacher.
• THE LANGUAGE AND THE CULTURE VIEWED
o The view of language has been influenced by descriptive linguists
o The view of culture in this method is how the culture consist of the
everday behavior and lifestyle of the target language speaker
• Solving a math problem, such as estimating the number of beans in a jar.
• Writing an encouraging letter to their child.
• Going on a classroom scavenger hunt for their child's work, the books their
child likes best, and messages from their child.
7. Types of learning and teaching
activities
Dialogues and drills form the basis of Audiolingual classroom practices.
Dialogues are used for repetition
and rnemorization. Correct pronunciation, stress, rhythm, and intonation
are emphasized.. After a dialogue has been presented and memorized,
specific grammatical patterns in the dialogue are selected and become
the focus of various kind of drill and pattern-practice exercises
8. Approach and method in learning
The use of drills and patterns practice are the
distinctive features of the Audio-Lingual
method. These are some kind of drills often
used: • EXAMPLES
1. Repetition.
T : I used to know him.
The students repeats an utterance aloud as
soon as they have heard it. they do this S : I used to know him.
without looking at a printed text. The
utterance must be brief enough to T : I used to know him years ago
retained by the ear. Sound is as important
as form and order. S : I used to know him years ago when
we were in school.
EXAMPLE
This is the seventh month. -This is the seventh
month. After a student has repeared an
utterance, he may repeat it again andadd
a few words, then repeat that whole
utterance and add more words.
9. 2. Inflection. One word in nn utterance appears 4. Restatement
in another torm when repeated. EXAMPLES:
The student rephrases an

utterance and addresses it to
He bought the candy -She bought the candy.
someone else, according to
