Abstract:
The present paper focuses on the instruction materials and assessment techniques currently used for vocabulary teaching as part of Modern Greek Language courses in Greek junior high schools and investigates the extend that these materials and techniques conform with the principle of vocabulary-grammar equality. More specifically, the main aim of the study is to examine whether there is a correlation between the vocabulary status preferred by the instructor and the teaching materials and assessment techniques being applied. In addition, the relevant proposals made by the instructors concerning the improvement of students’ textbooks, are presented. For these aims to be accomplished, a special questionnaire was developed, which was filled in by philologists of both sexes and of different teaching experience, from all three grades of junior high schools, both provincial and urban. The results of the sampling reveal that the instructors are divided in two almost equivalent groups: those who regard both vocabulary and grammar as equally important and those who consider vocabulary of secondary importance. However, as far as the general teaching method of vocabulary is concerned, almost all instructors prefer working on vocabulary in a systematic way and within a communicative model. Contrary to that, as far as the teaching materials are concerned, instructors rely on typically traditional solutions such as the use of language material and vocabulary activities exclusively from the textbook where vocabulary has been approached separately from the other language levels. In addition, there was a proportionate tendency to the above in the instructors ’ proposals concerning the improvement of students’ textbooks. Finally, yet in opposition to the above teaching practices, instructors appear to particularly promote the integrated vocabulary assessment method.
