Download or read book ESL/EFL Cases written by Gertrude TINKER-SACHS and published by City University of HK Press. This book was released on 2007-07-01 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The format of the presentation of cases allows the reader to gain insights on teaching from the vantage point of the students’ proficiency, the teacher’s perspective, the writers’ questions and suggested answers and finally the critical commentary. Readers are treated as thinking professionals who are capable of analysing the acts of language teaching through the teaching excerpts and the dynamic lesson transcriptions. The questions and critical commentary encourage deeper and more critical processing rather than a superficial interpretation of the teaching act. The cases, derived from authentic teaching contexts, encourage readers to appreciate the rich tapestry of teaching with all its complexities.
