Jung, Lothar – Neusprachliche Mitteilungen, 1977
Considers the question of how much psycholinguistics can contribute to foreign language teaching.

PDF pending restorationZamel, Vivian – 1973
In this paper, two theoretical approaches to language teaching, the audio-lingual and the cognitive code methods, are examined with respect to how they deal with feedback in the classroom situation. Audio-lingual theorists either ignore completely the need for feedback in the classroom or deal with it only in terms of its reinforcing attributes.…

Duffy, Carolyn B. – 1970
Foreign language teaching is currently in a state of flux, as is natural when any discipline is undergoing basic theoretical and procedural revision. The behaviorist trends applied to the audio-lingual habit theory were a major break-through for foreign language teaching, and skills ignored by the grammar-translation method were brought to the…

Peer reviewedCooper, Robert L. – TESOL Quarterly, 1970

Extending the Psychological Theory and Educational Possibilities of Programmed Language Instruction.
Carton, Aaron Suss – 1969
The author objects to criticism of current programed language instruction (PLI) materials. In a "conventional FL (foreign language) class" of 120 class hours a year, the amount of time spent in active, immediately reinforced responding by any individual student would be less than 100 minutes. This is in contrast to the shortest PLI program (53…
