2.8 Drawbacks to Warm-up
Good learners try to organize their knowledge when their teacher can help in this organization by using suitable warm up activities (Nemati & Habibi, 2012). It’s necessary that the activity used for learners has to be linked to their cognitive target (Ruiz & Ramírez, 2008). Krashen (1982) 12 mentions in his “comprehensible input” that students will acquire a language when it will be understandable and meaningful to them. The input or activity uses for learners has to be i+1 level where i represents the students’ existing knowledge and 1 is just one advance step from the students’ current level of competence (as cited in Tricomi, 1986, p.60). Many warm up activities fail to serve leaners as the organization of the language of warm up activities seems different from the language organization of learners’ minds. This mismatch hinders the effective language learning (Nemati & Habibi, 2012). Furthermore, very shy students can find warm up activities as threat. Especially, when a student feels strained as he\she has to perform exercises alone in front of the whole class (Klippel, 1985). Krashen (1982) also states that no matter how appropriate the input is, there will be an impediment in comprehension if a students’ “affective filter” or emotional responses such as nervousness, anxiety, stress, tension etc is high (as cited in Tricomi, 1986, p.60). 13 CHAPTER 3- Methodology 3.1 Introduction This chapter discusses the method used by the researcher to collect and analysis data from different universities.
