4.1 lntroduction
In the first part of this chapter I'll look at four main ways that people can
learn and be taught. These are:
° Finding out for yourself
e Things made plain
e Periphery learning
e Use and refinement
I'll explain what I mean by each of these four, detailing how they might
be used outside language lessons. For each of the four ways of learning
and being taught I'll then give language class examples, first of func
tional expressions and then for other content arcas. In the second part of
the chapter, I'll look at sorne common instructional sequences found in
coursebooks and 011 teacher trainíng courses. These are:
0 Test, teach, test
