Synopsis

As a matter of fact, the trainability of strategies has actually been a subject of dispute among language pedagogues. The theoretical assumptions and perspectives around the subject have inspired contemporary educators and researchers all around the globe to focus on assessing the process, impact and effectiveness of strategy training for enhancing students' competence and performance on specific language skills. In conclusion to their experimentation the scholars commend on the significance of designing such a program as a means to promote the level of students' engagement in communicative interactions. Accordingly, the results of the study presented in this book are significant as regards the increase in the use of interaction strategies and decrease in the state of non- interactive participation by students. Therefore the book will help language teachers, experts and material developers on how to design conduct and monitor interaction strategy trainings and maximize students' participation in communicative activities.
