DEFINING THE THEORY OF COMMUNICATIVE STRATEGIES
Abstract
The original meaning of the word strategy, which comes from the ancient Greek term strategia, was related to military and made reference to the methods carried out to implement a plan of a military operation. However, through years, this term has generalized its meaning and nowadays it denotes the set of procedures developed in order to achieve something. Furthermore, the term has also acquired a new meaning in education, denoting the use of different stratagems in order to acquire knowledge easily and faster, under the name of learning strategies
