Abstract EN
Communication is an exchange of meaning between people occurring either through language or non-verbally, and varying with different degrees of knowledge, motivation, and attitudes.
Used within academic disciplines in an increasingly technological context (Page, 1980:76).
Communicative competence is the ability to converse or correspond with a native speaker of the target language in a real life situation, with emphasis on communication of ideas rather than on correctness of language form (Ibid: 76).
Communicative approaches are approaches to language teaching in which the focus is on the processes of communication rather than on the structural, functional, or notional items (Nunan, 1992:158).
The ability of communication requires more than mastering linguistic structures.
Students may know the rules of linguistic usage, but be unable to use language (Widdowson, 1978:121).
It becomes clear that communication requires that students perform certain functions as well, such as promising, inviting and declining invitations within a social context (Wilkins, 1976:128).
In short being able to communicate requires more than linguistic competence; it requires communicative competence (Hymes, 1971:128)- knowing when and how to say what and to whom.
For many reasons, almost all students at the college of media don't have the communicative competence that enables them to correctly communicate through the English language.
The present research attempts to underline these reasons and solve them.
