Episode 25: There Is No Best Method–Why? Discussing Prabhu (1990)
Show Notes
We discussed this article:
Prabhu, N. S. (1990). There is no best method—Why?. TESOL Quarterly, 24(2), 161-176. https://doi.org/10.2307/3586897
It is freely available online at the link above. Diane missed the number of times it has been cited – “only” 1666 citations as of Feb. 28, 2025. That is still quite a lot in the field of applied linguistics/language teaching and learning.
Needs analysis:
Ch. 3 of this book is about needs analysis in language course design:
Macalister, J., & Nation, I. P. (2019). Language curriculum design. Routledge.
Information about the 2019 (2nd) edition is here:
The first edition of the book (2010 edition) is available freely online here: https://shorturl.at/mX40e
Prabhu (1990) cites Brumfit, 1984, which appears to be his PhD thesis revised for book publication:
Brumfit, C. (1984). Communicative methodology in language teaching: The roles of fluency and accuracy.
Intro & outro music selected from "23 Light Years" by CavalloPazzo
