Publisher's Synopsis
Television programmes provide valuable and unique resources for language learners, illustrating cultural details and giving authentic examples of language spoken by many different people. However, the practice of integrating such programmes into a language teaching scheme is not self-evident. This book aims to support such integration by presenting practical ideas for finding, evaluating and managing the use of programmes on video. Starting from a clear rationale and recognising pragmatic concerns, the book explores the potential for the teacher to progress with confidence from the very first steps with the technology to a more creative and individualised approach, based on evaluation, review and planning. The photocopiable section of the book features many formats for teachers to use in their planning and discussion, as well as worked examples .
