Abstract

Competency-based language teaching (CBLT) is a language teaching focused aspect of competency-based education. In brief, competency-based education is focused on having students’ master specific skills that are related to real world task. CBLT takes this approach and applies it to the learning of language. Competency-Based Language Teaching (CBLT) focuses on what “learners are expected to do with the language” (Richards & Rodgers.141). This approach emerged in the United States in the 1970s and can be described as “defining educational goals in terms of precise measurable descriptions of the knowledge, skills, and behaviors students should possess at the end of a course of study” (Richards & Rodgers 141). Its initial idea was adopted from the so-called generative grammar by N. Chomsky who declared in 1965, “…fundamental difference between the competence or knowledge of language and the application or actual use of language” (Chomsky 172). In Competency-Based Education (CBE) the focus is on the “outcomes or outputs of learning” (Richards & Rodgers 141).
