Chapter 6

Once again, the importance of the learning environment is revealed. The point of the matter is that students will not be able to learn (or want to learn) unless they were in an environment condusive to learning. Students will respond to their environment and that will determine how their attitude is towards language acquisition. The affective domain is not just within the classroom, but also in their homes. From their household, the inlfuence on their language learning is very high. It is vital that students recieve positive feedback for their language progress for it to continue.

  1. I realize that how important the students' attitude towards their learning is. It is very important for teachers to provide adequate learning environment for students.

  2. I agree that the affective filter is present in the home rather than the school setting only. Parents and other relatives should take the initiative to broaden the student's capacity to learn.
