Mansi Parmar submitted a paper on the oral and situational approach to language teaching. The situational approach developed in the 1930s-1960s and focused on developing speaking ability through vocabulary and grammar controlled by topic. Language was taught orally with new points introduced and practiced in simulated real-world situations. It relied on behavioral learning theory using real objects and pictures to demonstrate meanings clearly and facilitate memorization, though teachers found it difficult and boring to present all items situationally.
