REVIEW LESSON 2 - UNIT 6 - MAES

How does the DECPRO approach help prevent fossilization in early childhood and primary education?

• By balancing explicit and implicit instruction.

• By avoiding structured grammatical explanations.

• By replacing written exercises with oral practice.

In activity sequencing, what does the DEC stage in DECPRO focus on?

• Providing students with explicit grammatical explanations.

• Engaging students in free conversation tasks.

• Encouraging students to acquire language naturally without structured learning.

What happens during the 'Production' phase in the PPP model?

• Students engage in controlled practice activities.

• Students use the language autonomously, developing fluency.

• The teacher provides detailed grammatical explanations.

How does DECPRO differ from the traditional PPP model?

• It eliminates explicit instruction in favor of meaning-based tasks.

• It allows more flexibility by alternating explicit and implicit teaching stages.

• It focuses only on receptive skills rather than production.

What is the primary purpose of sequencing activities in language teaching?

• To organize activities in a way that gradually increases complexity.

• To ensure all students progress at the same rate.

• To provide students with open-ended language exposure.

What does the PRODEC model emphasize?

• An initial focus on procedural knowledge before introducing explicit instruction.

• The exclusive use of grammar-based drills.

• Memorization of grammatical rules before communication.

Which teaching framework consists of Presentation, Practice, and Production?

• DECPRO.

• PPP.

• PRODEC.

Which phase in PPP focuses on explicit or implicit language introduction?

• Presentation.

• Practice.

• Production.

Why is corrective feedback important during the 'Practice' phase?

• It helps students refine their use of language before moving to fluency.

• It prevents students from using new language independently.

• It reinforces memorization rather than language use.

What is a key principle in Skill Acquisition Theory?

• Learners move from declarative to procedural knowledge through practice.

• Learning a language is primarily about memorization of rules.

• Fluency is achieved without structured learning.
