Synopsis

This revised edition of "Authentic Texts in Foreign Language Teaching: Theory and Practice" is aimed at teachers outside of Ireland. The first three chapters cover the same ground as the previous edition: Chapter One briefly reviews some of the principal findings of language acquisition research and begins to explore their implications for language teaching; Chapter Two goes on to examine the basic principles of communicative language teaching, with particular reference to the use of authentic texts; and Chapter Three offers a battery of exercise types for use with authentic texts. For this edition, Chapter Four focuses on the use of authentic texts to develop learners' conscious control of target language grammar. An appendix provides an analytical overview of the tasks set in public examinations in the United Kingdom.
