It also leads to an increased awareness of the knowledge, skills, and attitudes needed to be responsible citizens. Moreover, it also advocates a participatory way of learning such as child or learner-centered ways of teaching. Therefore, English classes must encourage more student involvement. Cooperative group learning and methodologies of self-expression are the foundation of the communicative lesson. The true process of communication are placed in the class, not just 'English conversation' and 'English composition'.
Students are engaged to express their thoughts and feelings relevant to their actual lives.
It leads to an actual learning community and help them form a democratic character in the classroom. Some activities have also been undertaken. For example, students have studied about peace and written their wish for peace on cards. When they go to Hiroshima on school excursions, they present these cards to foreign visitors at the peace park and ask them to write messages. This peace message has been a typical lesson plan since the 1980s.
