Group Work is NOT Busy Work

Pair and group activities have become a staple in the L2 classroom, but in many cases instructors do not use the techniques appropriately or to maximum effectiveness. This proposal for training pre‐ and insewice teachers in the use of group work is based on the principles of action research: first it outlines some issues in the design and implementation of these activities and then includes suggestions for the postobsewation remodeling of activities within a task‐ and content‐based framework for language instruction
