"In an age in which various theories of language teaching are quickly being developed, modified, and often challenged or rejected, Hector Hammerly’s comprehensive An Integrated Theory of Language Teaching comes as a useful reminder that perhaps the best teaching theory is that one which uses a variety of instructional techniques and ideas drawn from a number of different teaching methods and disciplines. Hammerly’s book, which provides this integrated philosophy, thus convinces its reader that a truly useful teaching theory must be “eclectic in the positive sense of the word” (p.9).
Divided into three parts, An Integrated Theory of Language Teaching begins with an introduction (Chapters 1 to 3), which discusses the nature of theory and science, the theories developed thus far in second or foreign language teaching, and the drawbacks and benefits of immersion programs. The second section (Chapters 4 through 9) explains the integrated theory; here Hammerly lists various features from linguistics, psychology, teaching theory, and other sources, and discusses their application to language teaching. This section also outlines a model of language teaching based on the integrated theory. “Consequences,” the third part (Chapters 10 and 11), suggests the theory’s effects on methodology and the consequences for research. Three appendices (“Prematurities in Language Teaching,” “A Bill of Rights for Language Students,” and “Sample Laboratory Oral Test”), a bibliography, and an index conclude the text."
