| Synopsis: |
Improving Foreign Language Teaching provides teachers and teacher trainers with a research-based structure for the effective teaching and assessment of second languages. Offering a framework that can be used to support implementation of the national curriculum, it also presents practical activities and materials, and guidance on how student progress can be monitored and recorded. Based on international research and the findings of an expert consortium founded by the authors and involving teachers in a range of secondary schools', the book focusses on skills development and linguistic knowledge, and on an assessment system which truly reflects how learners progress in language learning.Improving Foreign Language Teaching identifies and exemplifies eight key principles for effective language learning: -Improved target language input -High quality planned oral interaction -Strategies for coping with communication difficulties -Greater access to more challenging spoken and written texts -Feedback for improved self-confidence -Developing writing in its own right -Grammar and vocabulary for the service of language skills Taking as its starting point the challenge of the curriculum in flux and complex pedagogical approaches, this book offers clear guidance for effective planning, teaching and learning. It will be essential reading for all those concerned with the improvement of language learning in the secondary classroom. |
