4 (Suggested answers)
The coursebook activities may not suit specific learner styles. We may want to introduce new and less repetitive activities. We may want to
design activities which personalise the learning to our students¡¯ needs and contexts.
5 (Suggested answers)
Showing the form on a whiteboard, mime, gesture, using pictures/diagrams, explanation, translation
6 (Suggested answers)
Students are motivated by the challenge of trying to find things out.
The cognitive effort involved produces a more permanent learning effect.
It is extremely useful as a revision technique for students to consolidate their knowledge of familiar forms.
7 (Suggested answers)
The teacher is using a dialogic approach, trying to work with natural conversation to encourage the student¡¯s use of the specific form (the
past simple), as well as drawing the student¡¯s attention to context and meaning with questions like ¡®Last night?¡¯ and ¡®Go?¡¯. Humour and
pausing, which encourages self-reflection and self-correction, are also used, alongside explicit correction and repetition of the target form, plus
positive feedback.
