Mind Sets and IFL: Texts and Tasks

Meer over het boek

The book explores the impact of targeted training on written production in language learners, particularly focusing on ab initio students. It emphasizes how meaningful input and attention management tasks enhance language and content integration. The action-research assesses written performance using various metrics, including holistic ratings for fluency and creativity, accuracy ratios, and complexity ratios. Findings indicate that structured training in the Text and Task Course significantly improves written performance in a relatively short instructional period.
