Abstract:

This volume consists of a collection of empirical studies and research
syntheses investigating the role of individual difference (ID)
variables in task-based language teaching (TBLT)—a pedagogical
approach that emphasizes the importance of the performance of
meaning-oriented tasks in facilitating second language learning. TBLT
is subject to learner-external as well as learner-internal factors,
with the former referring to task- and context-related factors, and
the latter to ID factors pertaining to learner traits, dispositions,
or propensities. To date, the research has focused primarily on
learner-external factors, and there has been insufficient and
unsystematic research on individual difference factors. This volume
brings centre stage this important but under-researched dimension by
means of a comprehensive, in-depth examination of the role of key ID
factors in TBLT. The volume integrates theory, research, and pedagogy
by spelling out the mechanism through which IDs influence learning
attainment, behaviours, and processes, examining evidence for
theoretical claims, and discussing ways to apply research findings and
cater to individual differences in the task-based classroom.
