Zusammenfassung

In this article, the beliefs of students pursuing a degree in primary education teaching at a medium-sized public Spanish university (approximately 20,000 students) are analysed in relation to the concept of ‘grammar’ in language teaching. This work is constructed on the basis of students’ pre-university experiences in comparison to the students’ current language training on the subject ‘Didactics on foreign language in primary school: English’. The research methodology involves a mixed approach because it combines qualitative and quantitative data, specifically. First, we utilised a survey (Cook and Singleton, 2014) that aimed at gathering students’ opinions on the role of grammar in language teaching. Second, we organised a focus group to clarify specific opinions which are poorly understood with only quantitative information. Furthermore, we present fundamental principles on current language training on the basis of the cognitive mechanisms of the unconscious assimilation of English according to foreign language acquisition teaching (Haidl, 1993, 1995), which avoids teaching grammatical rules and guidelines explicitly. The results exhibitsimilar opinions among respondents, especially in questions related to training that only considers the formal study of target language grammar. Moreover, the results also show that thoughts from respondents are formulated on the basis of a single manner of understanding languages that also coincides with what has been experimented in person at the pre-university stages: formal instruction. Nonetheless, from the action research, it appears that respondents satisfactorily embrace the opportunities provided through ‘acquisition learning’.
