Task-Based Instruction in Foreign Language Education. Betty Lou
Leaver and Jane R. Willis (Eds.). Washington, DC: Georgetown
University Press, 2004. Pp. vi + 336. $29.95 paper.
This volume provides in-depth coverage of what is actually meant by
task-based instruction (TBI) through a large range of case studies carried
out in government schools, private schools, universities, and Web-based
programs. Although this book is useful for teachers and administrators who
implement such programs in their curricula, it is also useful for
preservice teachers, instructors, and publishers trying to integrate and
comprehend TBI more extensively.
