HomePragmatic Tasks With a Purpose
Sunday, April 22nd, 2001, 1:30 PM - 4:30 PM
Speaker: Robert W. Long III, Kyushu Institute of Technology
DiPietro's strategic interactions have been used successfully in an ESL context, but it can be difficult for some EFL teachers to implement this approach. The presenter will introduce five kinds of pragmatic tasks for use at the novice through advanced levels, based on language tied to context, emotion, purpose, and identity. Participants will then engage in a variety of real-life simulations based on these tasks.
