Perspectives on Cultural and Individual Determinants of Teaching Style.

Kennedy, Judith

RELC Journal: A Journal of Language Teaching and Research in Southeast Asia, v22 n2 p61-78 Dec 1991

A pilot study with Malaysian and United Kingdom undergraduates suggests that promoting particular methodologies may be inappropriate and ineffective. Sample questionnaire items are appended.
