A new three-level series in which students learn and practise the words and phrases they need to know at Advanced level.
This book helps students:
* Learn how to say the words. * Practise listening to the words and using them. * Consolidate what they have learnt in the Students Book with linked interactive exercises
Offering a novel perspective, this book explores the interplay of ICT and language learning within the context of technological and social change, from the printing press to the mobile phone. It considers how technological advances, through their impact on communication, language and education, affect not only how languages are learnt, but also what kind of language is learnt. The approach highlights both the multifaceted and complex nature of language study and its evolutionary dimension.
Dr N S Prabhu's study presents a range of ideas on language teaching and learning which are marked equally by boldness in thought and a sense of the classroom.
The basic assumption underlying the study is that language form is best learnt when students are concentrating on meaning rather than form.
