How can we involve students in classroom decisions? What difficulties might arise? What benefits can we expect? This important collection addresses these questions by bringing together for the first time accounts from teachers who have introduced shared decision-making with students. The book describes the rationale for process syllabuses, which aim to provide a structure for negotiation. It provides actual examples from primary, secondary, tertiary and teacher education from a wide range of contexts - including Europe, the USA, South America, and Asia. The collection focuses on practice and provides a framework for teachers to experiment in their own classrooms.

This exciting four-level course is packed with fun activities. Right from the start, children are fully involved in thinking for themselves, doing things themselves, and making things themselves. The topics in the Pupil's Books encourage children to think about the world around them and, at the higher levels, are linked to other subject areas in the school curriculum. This approach makes language learning more meaningful and memorable. Regular revision pages, and 'I can' sections in the Activity Books allow children to evaluate their own progress, giving them a real sense of achievement. The Songs and Stories Audio Cassette/CD can be used in the classroom or at home and is a fun way of providing extra practice. Delightfully illustrated Vocabulary Cards are also available to practise the target language. The Starter Level, for children in the early stages of literacy, provides a full year of work and focuses on listening and speaking. Level 1, which can also be used by complete beginners, is for children who are ready to deal with all four skills.
