SUMMARY:How to Teach an Additional Language: To Task or Not to Task?
DESCRIPTION:The Teacher’s College Center for International Foreign Language Teacher education cordially invites you to a public talk by Prof. Kris Van den Branden. \nDecember 6\, 2022\n11 am – 1 pm (ET)\nvia Zoom \nOver the past few decades\, Task-based Language Teaching (TBLT) has gained momentum as a research-based approach to high-quality second and foreign language teaching. Worldwide\, a growing number of teachers adopt communicative tasks in their language education. In my talk\, I will explore what the available research has to say on the added value of using tasks as the starting point for the organization of high-quality language teaching. I will address pressing questions such as: Is task-based language teaching suitable for beginners and advanced learners? How can teachers integrate the teaching of grammar rules and vocabulary in task-based language teaching? Are tasks appropriate for motivating language learners? Should teachers use tasks to assess their students’ language competences? Which obstacles do language teachers face when implementing TBLT? \nKris Van den Branden is a full professor of linguistics and teacher educator at the Faculty of Arts of the University of Leuven (Belgium). At the same university\, he is the academic supervisor of the Centre for Language and Education. He has published several articles and volumes on second and foreign language education. His main research interests are in the role of the teacher in task-based language teaching and interaction in instructed language acquisition. Currently\, he is one of the chief editors of the journal TASK. Journal on Task-Based Language Teaching and Learning. \nRegister at this link. \nCIFLTE\nEmail: ciflte@tc.columbia.edu\nPhone: 212.678.8378\nWeChat: TCSOL_Columbia\nFacebook: TCSOL_CU\nTwitter: CIFLTE_CU\nInstagram: CIFLTE-CU\nWebsite: www.tc.columbia.edu/tcsol \n
