WHAT DIDACTICS AND APPROACH TO LANGUAGE LEARNING IS IMPLIED BY THE COMMON EUROPEAN FRAMEWORK?
Why is its assertion on page 8 (Cambridge University Press) about openness to all didactic approaches, not to be trusted?

ITS AMBIGUITY. THE COMMON EUROPEAN FRAMEWORK, SAID THAT IT HAD NO PREFERNCES ABOUT TEACHING METHODS (page 8. Cambridege University Press). HOWEVER, IN REALITY ITS WAY OF DESCRIBING LANGUAGE USE WAS CONDITIONED BY ITS GENESIS AS A CLEARING OF THE GROUND FOR MAKING ADEQUATE TEST "DESCRIPTORS". THE NEGATIVE EFFECT OF THIS IS SEEN IN ITS OFFSPRING:THE EUROPEAN PORTFOLIO OF LANGUAGES WHICH IS MORE CLOSELY RELATED TO TEACHING.
IN MY VIEW ITS DIDACTICS IS FLAWED. "NATURAL" LANGUAGE USE IS ONLY POSSIBLE AT A MUCH ADVANCED STAGE AT SCHOOL! see Amsterdam research. See also significant quotes from Common European Framework. 02.2 Talk on Framework at British Council 2003 teacher conference. Arcireale
