Interpretation Tasks for Grammar Teaching.
Ellis, Rod
TESOL Quarterly, v29 n1 p87-105 Spr 1995

This article explores an alternative approach, one based on interpreting input. The rationale for the approach is discussed, as are the principles for designing interpretation tasks for grammar teaching. (Contains 35 references.) (LR)
