In the 1960's, two medical doctors, Georgi Lozanov and Alfonso Caycedo, discovered independently that certain yogic techniques of physical and mental relaxation could be used to produce not only analgesia but also improved memory and concentration.

Brockhaus, Wilhelm – Praxis des Neusprachlichen Unterrichts, 1979
Discusses auditory practice (listening) as a factor in the learning process and as a goal area. Refers particularly to the "terminal" nine-year school. Motivation is high, because auditory skill can be developed to a higher point earlier than speech production. (IFS/WGA)
Descriptors: Educational Objectives, Language Instruction, Learning Motivation, Learning Processes
Peer reviewedButzkamm, Wolfgang – Zielsprache Deutsch, 1977
Using practical examples, such as the language experience of foreign tourists, it is shown that the "natural method" (using target language only) hinders learning. Use of the mother tongue is necessary for learning foreign structures (e.g., arranging native words according to the foreign syntax). (Text is in German.) (IFS/WGA)
