While those ideas enjoy a wide currency, many linguists reject them. His theories have come under criticism from those, such as the cognitive scientist Steven Pinker, who were once close to him. Paul Postal, one of Chomsky’s earliest colleagues, stresses the tendency for the grandiloquence of Chomsky’s claims to increase as he addresses non-specialist audiences. Frederick Newmeyer, a supporter of Chomsky’s ideas until the mid-1990s, notes: “One is left with the feeling that Chomsky’s ever-increasingly triumphalistic rhetoric is inversely proportional to the actual empirical results that he can point to.” -------------------olive kamm. /its good to be always suspicious and critical. i do agree with u that there is a perceivable change in the quality in language text books and methods.but whether there is a a corresponding change in the students should be validated empirically. there are several criticisms raised against the linguistics theories of chomsky which were not taken into account. there was a blind following in this regard as a practising teacher my interactions with language teachers and students somehow gave me the notion that there is something wrong in lan ed in kerala. one major problem with all ed reforms in kerala ,is lack of scholarly debate, research, pre test. in a very very scientific manner. chomsky, anandan ennivar paranjathukondu scientific aavanamennilla.caravanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02871322312707827380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2660130268671219748.post-54551680416964692682012-04-09T18:37:23.167-07:002012-04-09T18:37:23.167-07:00നൂറ്റുക്കുനൂറിനെ കുറിച്ച് കേട്ടിട്ടുണ്ട്. പക്ഷേ അത...നൂറ്റുക്കുനൂറിനെ കുറിച്ച് കേട്ടിട്ടുണ്ട്. പക്ഷേ അത്ര പരിചയമേ ഉള്ളൂ. കേരളത്തിലെ വിവിധ വിദ്യാഭ്യാസ ഏജന്സികള് നടപ്പിലാക്കുന്ന പരിപാടികള് പരിചയപ്പെടാന് ഇത്തരം പോസ്റ്റുകള്ക്കേ കഴിയൂ. അതിനായി ഒരു സര്ക്കാര് സംവിധാനം ഇല്ല. പ്രൈമറിയില് എന്തു നടക്കുന്നു, നടന്നു, നടക്കും എന്നൊന്നും സെക്കണ്ടറിയും ഹയര് സെക്കണ്ടറിയും അറിയാറില്ല. അറിയിക്കാറുമില്ല.MALAPPURAM SCHOOL NEWShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11968134722962270133noreply@blogger.com
