Abstract:
Editor’s Note: This is a new edition of a previously announced title.
This Element is a guide to task-based language teaching (TBLT), for language
instructors, teacher educators, and other interested parties. The work first
provides clear definitions and principles related to communication task
design. It then explains how tasks can inform all stages of curriculum
development. Diverse, localized cases demonstrate the scope of task-based
approaches. Recent research illustrates the impact of task design (complexity,
mode) and task implementation (preparation, interaction, repetition) on
various second language outcomes. The Element also describes particular
challenges and opportunities for teachers using tasks. The epilogue considers
the potential of TBLT to transform classrooms, institutions, and society.
 



1. What is TBLT?; 2. The Task-Based Curriculum; 3. Task-Based Approaches in
Context; 4. Research into TBLT; 5. Teachers and Tasks; 6. Epilogue: The
Potential of TBLT; Appendix: Discussion Questions; References.
