Extract

Task-Based Instruction in Foreign Language Education. Betty Lou Leaver and Jane R. Willis (Eds.). Washington, DC: Georgetown University Press, 2004. Pp. vi + 336. $29.95 paper.

This volume provides in-depth coverage of what is actually meant by task-based instruction (TBI) through a large range of case studies carried out in government schools, private schools, universities, and Web-based programs. Although this book is useful for teachers and administrators who implement such programs in their curricula, it is also useful for preservice teachers, instructors, and publishers trying to integrate and comprehend TBI more extensively.
