"Task-based learning (TBL) is rapidly gaining popularity, but what actually happens when we use communication tasks in real language classrooms? In this collection, teachers of English as a second or foreign language describe how they implemented TBL with learners of various ages and in a range of contexts. They explore the interaction and language stimulated by tasks, and investigate the effect of variables such as task type, planning time and repetition.
This book also offers: a wealth of practical ideas for teachers experimenting with TBL in the classroom. stimulating suggestions for classroom-based projects for teachers studying on Certificate, Masters and Diploma programs. a useful collection of classroom transcripts that can be used for detailed study."
