Description

Task-based learning in teaching is where an activity has been designed to help achieve a particular learning goal.

It reviews a number of issues which include: research into task-based learning; the effect of tasks on speaking, listening and oral interaction; the role of the teacher in exploiting tasks and the nature of the task-based curriculum.
