relation (linguistics and language teaching)
• Changes in language teaching methods throughout 
history have reflected the development of linguistic 
theories. 
• From the 17th to the 19th centuries, linguistics was 
characterized by traditional grammar. 
• The interest in the analysis of vernaculars 
(grammars, grammar schools, grammarians) 
favoured one method: 
“GRAMMAR TRANSLATION”
EARLY 20th CENTURY 
The emphasis was back on the “USE” of a language rather than 
on its “ANALYSIS”. 
The “DIRECT METHOD” FRANCOIS GOUIN (1880) also 
known as the “NATURAL METHOD” or “NATURAL 
APPROACH” gained favour.
20th CENTURY “APPROACHES”

resources and means of evaluation planned for students. 
• In brief , a syllabus can be described as a statement of what 
is to be learnt. It reflects language and linguistic performance. 
(Hutchinson and Waters, 1987)

compared with syllabus.

activities and arrangements 
made by the institution
