Almost all SLA researchers agree on one core point: Comprehensible input is necessary for language acquisition… but, there is now widespread agreement that in a school environment, that input must also be compelling, interesting and engaging. Comprehensible alone is not enough to hold our students’ short attention spans in the current busy classroom – the input needs a narrative arc to engage our students and ensure they are paying enough attention to the input so that it can become acquired.
In this episode we explore the use of narrative and story in the language classroom as a way to maintain engagement and boost acquisition. So, what are your thoughts on this?
