Confident Speaking: Theory, Practice and Teacher Inquiry: Research and Resources in Language Teaching
Autor Christine C. M. Goh, Xuelin Liuen Limba Engleză Paperback – 22 dec 2023
Christine C. M. Goh and Xuelin Liu, thought leaders in the field of language education, draw on scholarly literature and their own experience to show language teachers how to apply insights from research and theory in everyday classroom teaching. They offer 80 hands-on activities to help learners develop speaking skills through fluency practice and language-focused activities, and tap into their metacognitive thinking to adopt strategies for facilitating oral communication. Also included is guidance for teachers in designing lessons and larger units of work with the activities and carrying out professional inquiry activities into their own practice of teaching L2 speaking.
This book is a valuable resource for language teachers and teacher educators, as well as researchers interested in the teaching and development of second language speaking.
