In this Unit I have learned about teaching productie skills: speaking and writing. While speaking and writing are substantially different in many ways, they both are used for the same purpose - to communicate. Writing is the most neglected skill in the TEFL world. Communication between people is a very complex and ever changing thing. Communication is done by the following reasons: people have some communicative purpose, they want to say something, they want to listen to something, they are interested in what is being said. There are accuracy and fluency activities. Accuracy activities (usually part of the study phase) are concentrated on producing correct language. Such activities are usually controlled to ensure accurate reproduction of language. Fluency activities (usually part of the activate phase) are concentrated on allowing the students to experiment and be creative wih language. We are less concerned with accuracy and more concerned with the effectiveness and flow of the communication. Accuracy and fluency carry equal importance.
