Abstract | A language course has two components: (1) the course content; and (2) the presentation of that content. This article deals with the presentation component. Its main thesis is this: Since the ultimate goal of language learning is communication, classroom presentation should, from the outset, be directed toward the development of communication skills. Learning requires practice, but this practice should be communication practice, not mere pattern practice. The author develops this theme by considering the following four topics: (1) The nature and form of communication-practice drills; (2) The psychological preparation for communication; (3) The introduction of new content in communication practice; and (4) The relationship of communication practice to textbook and curriculum.
