In this webinar, we will explore the role of tasks in the language classroom and consider how we can adapt course books and other published materials to better meet students’ needs. By revisiting some key concepts in communicative approaches such as task-based language teaching, content-based instruction, and participatory approaches, participants will be invited to tweak, adapt and tailor existing resources to make them more appropriate for a variety of learning and teaching contexts.
