These eight changes are: learner autonomy, cooperative learning, curricular integration, focus on meaning, diversity, thinking skills, alternative assessment and teachers as co-learners. This article describes eight changes that fit with the paradigm shift in second language education toward what is most often described as communicative language teaching. The concept of paradigm shift offers one means of making such connections. We can better understand and implement change in second language education if we look for connections between changes.

Lastly, pharmaceutical advances have ushered in a new era of victories against the diseases of the mind. In the process, psychology has developed methodological rigors, which have made it a more exact science. "At least fourteen disorders, previously intractable, have yielded their secrets to science and can now be either cured or considerably relieved" (Seligman, 1994, p. Psychology has made amazing strides in the understanding and therapy of mental illness. This arrangement brought many accomplishments and benefits. As a result, the field of psychology shifted towards studying pathology. A year later, in 1947, the National Institute of Mental Health was created, and psychologists discovered they could get grants for research on mental illness. In 1946, the Veterans Administration made it possible for psychologists to make a living treating mental illness. After the war, two economic events changed the face of psychology. "Before World War II, psychology had three missions: curing mental illness, making the lives of all people more fulfilling, and identifying and nurturing high talent" (Seligman, 2000, p.

Psychology should be about the study of both weakness and strength. A fresh shift in priorities could engender monumental breakthroughs for the individual, the field of psychology, and society as a whole. Hopefully, by studying the building blocks of things like courage, love, forgiveness, wisdom, and spirituality we may discover the best ways to facilitate growth. It is imperative that we reconnect to the positive aspects of life, such as what makes life worth living, most fulfilling, most enjoyable and most productive. Psychology needs to take building the best things in life as seriously as it has taken healing the worst. Treatment should not only be about fixing what is broken it must nurture what is best. Any approach that emphasizes just one end of the spectrum (in this case negative) will be incomplete. Concentrating on what is wrong has left little room for examining what is right. Practitioners are concerned about treating a patient's mental illness within a disease framework. Current psychological practice focuses almost exclusively on pathology.
