Sonderegger, Stefan – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2022
The use of social robots in education is a growing area of research and the potential future applications are various. However, the conversational models behind current social robots and chatbot systems often rely on rule-based and retrieval-based methods. This limits the social robot to predefined responses and topics, thus hindering it from…

Rote Learning and Rule Learning in Foreign-Language Teaching
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Engels, L. K. – ITL Review of Applied Linguistics, 1975
The article outlines the need to eliminate rote-learning and pure imitative strategies in second language learning, particularly in the areas of syntax and semantics. Theoretical foundations for this need are discussed, with reference to the coding hypothesis for memory functions in language learning. Results of experimental investigations are…

Code-Cognition Approaches to Language Learning.
Donaldson, Weber D., Jr. – 1970
On the basis of evidence from general linguistic theory and psycholinguistic research, it is argued that the working hypotheses of the audiolingual habit theory are inconsistent with studies of human verbal learning tasks, and that transformation grammarians have shown convincingly that structuralist views of language are too narrow in scope. It…

Foreign Language Methods and an Information Processing Model of Memory.
Willebrand, Julia – 1978
The major approaches to language teaching (audiolingual method, generative grammar, Community Language Learning and Silent Way) are investigated to discover whether or not they are compatible in structure with an information-processing model of memory (IPM). The model of memory used was described by Roberta Klatzky in "Human Memory:…
