The emergence of English as a global language, along with technological innovations and the growing need for learner autonomy, is changing language teaching rapidly and profoundly. With these changes come new demands and challenges for teaching education programs. This authoritative collection of writings highlights some of the best work being done today in the United States and abroad to make communicative competence an attainable goal. The contributors examine what has come to be known as communicative language teaching, or CLT, from the perspectives of teachers and teacher educators. The book documents current reform initiatives in Japan, the United States, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and continental Europe to provide a global perspective on language teaching for communicative competence. Four major themes recur throughout the volume: the multifaceted nature of language teaching; the highly contextualized nature of CLT; the futility of defining a “native speaker” in the postcolonial, postmodern world; and the overwhelming influence of high-stakes tests on language teaching. The book is a useful and valuable tool for language teachers, teacher educators, and policymakers.

In this thoughtful and comprehensive book, Ryofu Pussel draws on his more than eight years of teaching German and English to speakers of other languages, as well as his Master of Education degree in TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) from Australia, providing a comprehensive explanation and critical analysis of the concept of communicative foreign language teaching and learning. Written in a clear style and assuming no prior knowledge, this book provides a fresh and fascinating insight into the theory and practice of communicative language teaching. This book will be appreciated by teachers, students, and scholars alike. In the first two chapters of this book, the historical context of language teaching and learning, as well as a description and comparison of language learning and teaching theories will be looked at. Six chapters are concerned with the course design of a communicative foreign language teaching: pre-course planning, the Student Needs Analysis, planning and specifying content, methodology, programming a unit, and sequencing the four macroskills (listening, speaking, reading and writing). This builds the 'base" of communicative language teaching, and it is followed by an analysis of the bottom-up and top-down approaches of teaching, reading, spelling, and writing lessons; the benefits and drawbacks of process-writing will be looked at in detail, and a practical classroom application shall bring the findings into an applied context . Assessment and evaluation form an important part of communicative language teaching and learning, and are therefore analysed in detail. A summary brings all findings together, and a syllabus outline of the followingtopics demonstrates that the theoretical findings of this book can be applied into real, practical examples of classroom teaching: Talk about yourself, talk about your family, occupations, art, entertainment / cinema / video, accommodation and hotels (travel), reading maps / directions / transport, music, food and drink, socializing, media (TV /radio / newspaper / magazines), shopping, weather, sports, health, talking about stars, and talking about past experiences. Methodology is put into practical application by providing a complete sample lesson plan (unit: weather). A complete index and reference list shall enable the interested reader to engage into further studies of this topic.

The introduction of communicative competence as the goal of second and for eign language teaching has led to recognition of the role of context in language learning and use. As communicative competence is defined by the social and cultural contexts in which it is used, no single communicative competence can serve as the goal and model for all learners. This recognition has had an impact on program design and materials development. One significant change is that the choice of a teaching method is no longer the primary concern. Instead, the first step for the program designer is becoming familiar with the social and cultural features of the context of the language being taught. This includes a consideration of the uses speakers make of the language, their reasons for using it, and their attitudes toward it. Contexts of Competence: Social and Cultural Considerations in Commu nicative Language Teaching explores the relationship between context and com petence from a theoretical and practical perspective. Its audience is applied linguists in general and language teaching practitioners in particular. The overall aim of its five chapters is to provide a framework for consideration of various contexts of language learning and use and to guide the implementation and development of models of communicative language teaching that are responsive to the context-specific needs of learners.

The present book viz., A Handbook to Teaching Communicative English (For Research students) is a successful attempt to teach English to ESL students through communicative approach. Several practical tasks are suggested to practice speaking English in a normal class room by an English making learning live and interesting. The communicative approach to teaching of English is organized on the basis of certain communicative functions, such as apologizing, describing, inviting, promising etc. that the ESL learners need to know. It explains the language in terms of the functions it performs. This approach does not ignore the role of grammar in the process of language learning, but it insists that the grammatical rules are useless unless they are applied to real-life situations Communicative approach focuses on the signi cance of language functions because the learner needs knowledge of both meaning and functions. It lays emphasis on functional, communicative and social interactive activities. The basis of each lesson is a problem or a task and the conduct of the lessons consists of setting the task, demonstrating ways of tackling it and, in the process, giving some pupils a chance to attempt it, then getting all the pupils to attempt and, nally giving each pupil a rough indication of the measure of his success. The function of the task is to bring about a self-reliant effort by the learners. Tasks consist of : interpreting a schedule, giving a set of directions, de
