Task-based language teaching is an approach which differs from
traditional approaches by emphasising the importance of engaging
learners' natural abilities for acquiring language incidentally
through the performance of tasks that draw learners' attention to
form. Drawing on the multiple perspectives and expertise of five
leading authorities in the field, this book provides a
comprehensive and balanced account of task-based language teaching
(TBLT). Split into five sections, the book provides an historical
account of the development of TBLT and introduces the key issues
facing the area. A number of different theoretical perspectives
that have informed TBLT are presented, followed by a discussion on
key pedagogic aspects - syllabus design, methodology of a
task-based lesson, and task-based assessment. The final sections
consider the research that has investigated the effectiveness of
TBLT, addresses critiques and suggest directions for future
research. Task-based language teaching is now mandated by many
educational authorities throughout the world and this book serves
as a core source of information for researchers, teachers and
students.
