Communicative competence



Communicative Competence

The next video will be a discussion over the term Communicative competence, a differentiation between linguistic competence and communicative competence will be develop. Some examples about communicative competence will be presented, so it can help the understanding of the term, also an example of Jake Richards will be explained, besides of a short explanations of the five strands of communicative competence. 



My conclusions were that I did not think about the importance of communicative competence before, being aware of how communicative competence helps to the development of the learner's language. Makes me want to focus more in this kind of approach to the students. Sometimes, as students speaking becomes a problem at the moment where we do not have where to practice it besides the class, even in the class results a problem, but as being forced to speak, students lose the fear try to express themelves in their second language.

  2. In the second line of your introduction you need to use the verb “develop” in past participle "developed". In the third line you need "to" in the sentence: "It can help to the understanding". I think the video says "strengths" instead of "strands". In your conclusion at the end you typed "themelves" you missed an s there. In terms of the video really accurate and fluent i would recommend you to use different examples so you can apply those terms to your own situations.
