Competency based approach
(CBA) is a problem-solving
approach in that it places
learners in situations that
test/check their capacity to
overcome obstacles and
problems . Languages are
learned most effectively and
lastingly when they are used to
solve problems through
hypothesis testing . Problems
make the learners think and
they learn by thinking. They
word their thinking in English
while solving the problems.
This initial problem
solving situation must
appear :
1)At the beginning of the
pedagogic project while
introducing the project
work
2) At the beginning of
each lesson
