Focusing on second language acquisition, this book introduces Processing Instruction (PI), which emphasizes enhancing how learners process linguistic input rather than merely producing output. It distinguishes itself from traditional grammar teaching by prioritizing structured input—carefully designed comprehensible input aimed at maximizing learning.
