About this title

Synopsis

The book includes a range of activities that are designed to help teachers encourage their learners to develop responsibility for their own learning, starting from a low initial level of responsibility and adopting a systematic and gradual approach. The activities can be easily integrated into regular lessons, since each serves a clear linguistic purpose and promotes more general learner development. The activities are designed to develop a comprehensive range of skills and attitudes including developing learner strategies, monitoring learning processes, establishing self-evaluation, promoting motivation and developing co-operation.
