    Dian Novita Nanda - Task Based Instruction PDF

    Dian Novita Nanda
    Task-based instruction focuses on using tasks to promote language learning. There are two types of tasks - pedagogical tasks designed for the classroom and real-world tasks that mimic real life. A key characteristic of a task is that it has a meaningful outcome beyond just language practice. A typical TBI lesson involves introducing a task, having students complete the task in groups, reporting back on their experience, analyzing language used, and practicing new structures that emerged. Common task types include listing, sorting, comparing, problem-solving, sharing experiences, and creative tasks.

    Task Based Instruction (TBI)

    TBI claims that language learning will result from creating the right kinds of interactional processes in
    the classroom, and the best way to create these is to use specially designed instructional tasks. Some of
    the key characteristics of a task are:

    1. It is something that learners do or carry out using their existing language resources.
    2. It has an outcome which is not simply linked to learning language, though language acquisition
    may occur as the learner carries out the task.
    3. It involves a focus on meaning.
    4. In the case of tasks involving two or more learners it calls upon the learners’ use of
    communication strategies and interactional skills.

    Task -based learning offers an alternative for language teachers. In a task-based lesson the teacher does
    not pre-determine what language will be studied, the lesson is based around the completion of a central
    task and the language studied is determined by what happens as the students complete it. The lesson
    follows certain stages:

     Pre-task. The teacher introduces the topic and gives the students clear instructions on what they
    will have to do at the task stage and might help the students to recall some language that may
    be useful for the task. The pre-task stage can also often include playing a recording of people
    doing the task. This gives the students a clear model of what will be expected of them. The
    students can take notes and spend time preparing
     for the task.
     Task. The students complete a task in pairs or groups using the language resources that they
    have as the teacher monitors and offers encouragement.
     Planning. Students prepare a short oral or written report to tell the class what happened during
    their task. They, then, practice what they are going to say in their groups. Meanwhile the
    teacher is available for the students to ask for advice to clear up any language questions they
    may have.
     Report. Students then report back to the class orally or read the written report. The teacher
    chooses the order of when students will present their reports and may give the students some
    quick feedback on the content. At this stage the teacher may also play a recording of others
    doing the same task for the students to compare.
     Analysis. The teacher then highlights relevant parts from the text of the recording for the
    students to analyze. They may ask students to notice interesting features within this text. The
    teacher can also highlight the language that the students used during the report phase for
    analysis.
     Practice. Finally, the teacher selects language areas to practice based upon the needs of the
    students and what emerged from the task and report phases. The students then do practice
    activities to increase their confidence and make a note of useful language.
    There are two kinds of tasks:

    Pedagogical tasks are specially designed classroom tasks that are intended to require the use of specific
    interactional strategies and may also require the use of specific types of language (skills, grammar,
    vocabulary).

    Real-world tasks are tasks that reflect real-world uses of language and which might be considered a
    rehearsal for real world tasks (e.g., role plays).

    Willis (1996) proposes six types of tasks as the basis for TBI:

    1. Listing tasks. For example students might have to make up a list of things they would pack if
    they were going on a beach vacation.
    2. Sorting and ordering. Students work in pairs and make up a list of the most important
    characteristics of an ideal vacation.
    3. Comparing. Students compare ads for two different supermarkets.
    4. Problem-solving. Students read a letter to an advice columnist and suggest a solution to the
    writer’s problems.
    5. Sharing personal experience. Students discuss their reactions to an ethical or moral dilemma.
    6. Creative tasks. Students prepare plans for redecorating a house.
