Task-Based Language Teaching
Daniel O. Jackson
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.
