Investigating the Use of Communication Strategies by Adult Second Language Learners: A Case for Trusting Your Own Judgment in Classroom Research.
Clennell, Charles
TESOL Journal, v4 n1 p32-35 Fall 1994
Focuses on strategies of second-language learners who communicate among themselves. Pairs of students were left alone in a room with a sound recorder and instructions to describe a specific object. The communication strategy they selected to describe an object with no common referent was to paraphrase the object's function. (11 references) (CK)
