What is Community Language
Learning?
Language is people; language is person in contact;
language is persons in response.
La Forge (1983)
CLL interactions are of two
different kinds:
-Interaction between learners.

-Interaction between learners and knowers.


Interaction between learners

Are unpredictable in content.


Involve exchanges of affect.
Exchanges
deepen in intimacy as the class becomes a
community of learners.
Thedesire to be part of the community, pushes learners to keep
pace with the learning of their peers.
Interaction between learners and
knowers.

The learner tells the knower what he or


she wishes to say in the target language,
and the knower tells the learner how to
say it.
Stages between learners and
knowers.
Stage 1 Dependent

Stage 2 Self-assertive

Stage 3 Resentful and indignant

Stage 4 Tolerant

Learning is not viewed as an individual work but as
something that is achieved collaboratively.

Learners are expected to listen to the knower, and to


express feelings like anger or sadness. As well joy and
pleasure and finally to become counselor of another's
learners.
