by Robin C. Scarcella, Rebecca L. Oxford

This teacher resource book weaves together language learning strategies, learning styles, theme- and task-based instruction, and the relatedness of skills. By using the metaphor of a woven tapestry, this book shows how language learning is created and controlled by the learner with input from many sources, including the teacher, authentic materials, and multimedia. Teachers will also find practical ideas and strategies to implement in class.
