A Practical Guide to Integrating Technology into Task-Based Language Teaching
Marta González-Lloret
However exciting new technologies and educational tools may seem, they can become solely for entertainment unless their design, use, and evaluation are guided by principles of education and language development. Task-based Language Teaching (TBLT) provides an excellent approach for teachers who want to realize the potential of technology to engage learners and improve language learning inside and outside the classroom. Marta González-Lloret is an associate professor in Spanish at the University of Hawai'i. She has published widely on task-based learning, including the recent coedited book Technology-Mediated TBLT: Researching Technology and Tasks. Table of Contents Introduction 1. What Is Technology-Mediated TBLT? 2. How to Conduct a Needs Analysis of Tasks and Technologies 3. Creating, Organizing, and Sequencing Tasks 4.
