Grammar acquisition in English as foreign language (EFL) setting has been a challenging task for language learners, including Taiwan. Various pedagogies are utilized to explore EFL students' grammar learning; for example, the Grammar Translation Method (GTM) among three instructional approaches, featuring drills as lecture-based instruction on grammar usages, has a longest teaching history and is still being extensively practiced. Afterwards, the Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) approach has shed light on the significance of interaction in order to boost communicative competence, even in grammar learning. More recently, the prevalence of computer assisted language learning (CALL) promoted the Flipped Classroom (FC) to become an innovative, effective teaching mode, where learners preview on-line instructional materials before class and then are engaged to interactive learning activities during face-to-face meetings. While previous studies have asserted the effects of respective pedagogy on language learning, research comparing the abovementioned three instructional approaches in language learning remains scarce, not to mention such a comparison in grammar acquisition among EFL learners. The present study, hence, aimed to investigate EFL junior high school students in central Taiwan on their grammar learning effects of diverse instructional approaches. Three groups of students received the same English grammar content including infinitive verbs, gerunds, indirect speech, causative verbs, verbs of the senses, linking verbs, and relative pronouns of distinct methods (GTM, CLT, and FC respectively) for a six-week teaching period. Multiple sources of data were collected, comprising grammar written and speaking pre-tests, three different ranges of achievement tests, grammar written and speaking post-tests, and semi-structured interviews. Based on the outcome of the written and speaking pre-tests, the three groups demonstrated similar grammar competence, and the results of the written post-tests indicated that the FC group performed significantly better than the other two groups; yet the significant difference was not found between the GTM group and CLT group. As for the speaking tests, both the GTM and FC groups improved significantly, with much more improvement in the FC class. These findings contribute to a better understanding of how FC produces the paramount learning impact than GTM and CLT. The analysis of the interview suggested that the students found the You-tube videos of FC approach particularly practical in facilitating them to learn grammar, thus promoting the following acquisition. Ultimately, pedagogical implications and suggestions for future research are provided in the conclusion.

This study emerges from an interest in the shortcomings in the production of grammatically accurate sentences by university students of English as a Foreign Language in Taiwan. Informed by second language acquisition theory, it is a quasi-experimental investigation of the effects of explicit grammatical instruction on university students ' EFL learning. Following the application of a pre-test the experimental group experienced explicit form-focused instruction in a communicative language teaching classroom for two semesters, receiving enhanced written input and undertaking linguistic consciousness-raising task, while the control group received no explicit grammatical instruction. Data were collected from recognition and written production tasks and students were interviewed on their linguistic performance to provide methodological triangulation. The statistical tools of Paired and Independent T-test, Chi-square, and Pearson's Correlation were used to determine whether there were significant inter- and intra-group differences based on the different classroom experience. The major findings of this study were that explicit grammatical instruction raised students' level of awareness of targeted forms significantly as they processed linguistic input and that subsequently their accurate production of these forms was enhanced. Differences in significance levels were discussed in the light of current debate on Second Language Acquisition with particular reference to the accessibility of Universal Grammar and the iv Minimalist framework. The results of this research indicate that a combination of focus on form and meaning is to be recommended within the content-based curriculum in Taiwanese university classrooms and the thesis ends with pedagogical implications for the application of explicit form-focused instruction in EFL learning.

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.

The book addresses the issues of teaching grammar, a highly controversial area of communicative language teaching (CLT), from a unique Bangladeshi perspective. In so doing, the author makes a creative synthesis of the different approaches to and techniques of teaching grammar in CLT classrooms as suggested by leading experts in the field, conducts an empirical study of Bangladeshi EFL classroom realities, beliefs and attitudes of teachers and learners about grammar instruction, and finally develops a series of recommendations for grammar pedagogy in communicative classroom settings. The crux of the argument in the book is that grammar should be taught not as an end in itself, but as a means towards effective communication. A typical classroom procedure for grammar teaching forms a cycle in which stages of presenting new language items, its practice and free production or communicative activities followed by error correction merge in a continuum and a teacher may begin his/her class from any point he/she thinks suitable. Teachers of communication-motivated language programs will find useful insights in the book which is also a unique document of TESOL research in Bangladesh.
