This is par�cularly useful for learners of intermediate level or above who might have learnt the lesson
content before. The teacher can see where students are s�ll struggling.
For example, you could give your students a train �metable and ask them to find out the fastest way from
Point A to Point B. To complete the task, they must work with other students. You, as the teacher, provide
individual support with language during the task plus group feedback at the end. This means that the
language the students learn is determined by what happens during the task.
It is worth no�ng that, in prac�ce, Task Based Learning is usually applied in a modified form. For example,
the teacher may provide a model of someone doing the task followed by tasks that help them develop
useful language or strategies.
