Abstract:

This volume presents the second edition of the <i>Communicative
Orientation of Language Teaching (COLT) Observation Scheme.</i> Since
the book’s original publication, COLT has become well established as a
research instrument in L2 teaching and learning. This new edition
brings COLT into the 21st century by introducing digital versions of
the scheme and describing how advances in technology have made the
collection, coding, analysis, and synthesis of classroom data faster
and more efficient. Enhancements include the availability of web-based
platforms for the coding, sharing and storage of data, the application
of artificial intelligence in the coding of classroom observation
data, numeric coding systems, and ongoing work in the use of automatic
speech recognition for faster transcription. The volume has a similar
organizational structure to the original COLT book with the addition
of a new chapter on Digital COLT (Part A), a new section on Numeric
COLT (Part B), and an expanded final chapter that includes updated
summaries reporting on the use of COLT for a wide range of research
purposes in diverse L2 contexts. As with the first edition, the
material is presented in a user-friendly manner with examples,
illustrations and hands-on activities throughout. It is intended for
both novice and experienced researchers investigating teaching and
learning in L2 classrooms and in teacher education/reflective practice
research.<br />The companion web site with interviews and a video tour
