The Input Hypothesis, as one part of＂Monitor Model＂ proposedby Stephen D. Krashen, suggests that the comprehensible input plays a key role in the language acquisition.Nowadays, the Input Hypothesis, with ＂i＋l＂ as its core proposal, influences Chinese foreign language teachingfrom various aspects. But there are also many disputes. In this paper, the author intends to elaborate on its maincontents, characteristics, influences on foreign language teaching, existing defects, and so on, aiming to achieve thegoal of reviewing of this theory and its influence in China.展开更多

While Guzman focuses on inspirational teaching and open-ended discussion, the analysis highlights some shortcomings of his methods from three perspectives: 1) whether the approach aligns with socio-cultural theories, 2) whether it overlooks the importance of input assumptions, and 3) whether it can effectively improve students’ communicative competence. Through this analysis, the paper sheds light on the potential limitations of Guzman’s approach to teaching English and provides insights into how educators can design more effective language teaching methods.展开更多
