Figure 12: Graph representing the stage in which it is better to involve students in communication

As we can see in this graph, the percentage of the teachers who choose the presentation stage is the lowest. Many teachers think that in the presentation stage, students are supposed to listen to the explanation since teacher talking time is higher than students talking time. As such, it is not better to involve students in communication. The rest of the figures in this graph show that the teachers’ opinions are equally divided between developing students’ communicative competence either in the practice stage or in the production stage or at any stage. We can draw a conclusion that developing students’ communicative competence is always feasible when they learn conditional sentences.
