What is Canale and Swain about?
The document summarizes research on communicative competence from 1980 onward. It discusses the four competencies of communicative competence proposed by Canale and Swain in 1980: grammatical competence, sociolinguistic competence, discourse competence, and strategic competence. The document also discusses how the concept has been applied and understood in second language teaching, with grammatical competence traditionally receiving most attention but communicative competence now seen as the goal.
