In Hans Heinrich Sterns (1992) cultural syllabus the premise is language related to the situational context in which it occurs. Designers predict situations the learners find themselves in, and utilize these for example, the British Councilsgoing to the cinema LearnEnglish Teens listening exercise in which pictures are presented from movie genres, and the students are asked to complete a tickbox exercise to determine whether they think the picture is from a horror, science fiction, romance, comedy, action, historical drama, or cartoon film. In culturally based situations, language is used and learned, so elements of the cultural syllabus are important for the multiapproach. | Robin Bright Designing a Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) Syllabus
