Overview

In this presentation, Bill Littlewood outlines a framework for identifying and developing principles and strategies for communicative language teaching by highlighting two dimensions: one dimension locates classroom activities along a ‘communicative continuum’ while a second dimension addresses the need to stimulate engagement by considering factors such as motivation, individual differences and affective needs.
