Q: Give three reasons why the PACE Model can be more effective than a traditional grammar lesson.
A: While there are many, three reasons why the PACE Model can be more effective than a traditional grammar lesson include:
1) It engages the students through the telling of a story, which allows them to focus on the meaning of the language before focusing on the explanation of the grammar rule.
2) Since no explicit explanation is given by the teacher, it allows students to come up with their own ways of describing the language and explanations for how the rule works.
3) It is a student-centered approach, which allows students to work collaboratively with each other and the teacher. Therefore, the teacher is not entirely responsible for the students' learning.
