Abstract:
The book examines how task-based language teaching (TBLT) can be carried out
with young beginner learners in a foreign language context. It addresses how
TBLT can be introduced and implemented in a difficult instructional context
where traditional teaching approaches are entrenched. The book reports a study
that examined how TBLT can be made to work in such a context. The study
compares the effectiveness of TBLT and the traditional
“present-practice-produce” (PPP) approach for teaching English to young
beginner learners in Japan. The TBLT researched in this study is unique as it
employed input-based tasks rather than oral production tasks. The study shows
that such tasks constitute an ideal means of inducting beginner learners into
listening and processing English. It also shows that such tasks lead naturally
to the learners trying to use the L2 in communication. It provides evidence to
support the claim that TBLT promotes the kind of naturalistic interaction
which is beneficial for the development of both interactional and linguistic
competence. The book concludes with suggestions for how to implement TBLT in
Japanese school contexts.
