Task-based learning involves exposing learners to meaningful social contexts using the target language, providing frequent opportunities for active use of the language in communicative situations, and motivating language learning. It follows a typical sequence of a pre-task, task, and post-task phase. The principles emphasize using appropriate language functions and exponents for communication over mere grammar patterns, through communicative activities that involve exposure and use of the language.

communicative approach.

contexts.

• People learn languages so they can
comunicate with them.
• Gives students aspects of style and
appropriacy.
• Gives them oportunities to try out real
language within.
