Promoting Pragmatic Awareness and Spoken Discourse Skills with EAP Classes.
Clennell, Charles
ELT Journal, v53 n2 p83-91 Apr 1999
Uses recorded data from a recent classroom research project by an English-for-Academic-Purposes class in South Australia to describe an interview process that allows nonnative-speaking learners to experience authentic oral interaction with native speakers. The interview process also provides opportunities for reflecting on the linguistic and sociopragmatic features of spoken discourse as they arise. (Author/SM)
