Language education may take place as a general school subject, in a specialized language school, or out of school with a rich selection of proprietary methods online and in books, CDs and DVDs. There are many methods of teaching languages. Some have fallen into relative obscurity and others are widely used; still others have a small following, but offer useful insights. There are three principal views: # The structural view treats language as a system of structurally related elements to code meaning (e.g. grammar). # The functional view sees language as a vehicle to express or accomplish a certain function, such as requesting something. # The interactive view sees language as a vehicle for the creation and maintenance of social relations, focusing on patterns of moves, acts, negotiation and interaction found in conversational exchanges. This view has been fairly dominant since the 1980s. == Methodology == 〔In the late 1800s and most of the 1900s, language teaching was usually conceived in terms of ''method''. In seeking to improve teaching practices, teachers and researchers would typically try to find out which method was the most effective. However, ''method'' is an ambiguous concept in language teaching, and has been used in many different ways. According to Bell, this variety in use "offers a challenge for anyone wishing to enter into the analysis or deconstruction of methods".〔, cited in 〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Language pedagogy」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
