implication
Teachers should train learners in strategies for identifying possible chunks in the input that they are exposed to, as well as strategies for recording and reviewing them, and for re-integrating them into their output.
Testing of both spoken and written language should
include criteria that address the candidates’ command of formulaic and/or idiomatic usage.
For teachers of younger learners, in particular, the design and use of activities such as songs and chants should be promoted, so as to maximise their chunk-learning potential.
At beginner/elementary levels, chunk learning should take the form of the formulaic ways that certain common speech acts are realised, such as making requests, apologising, etc.
