Communicative Language Teaching "Revolution" Tested: A Comparison of Two Classroom Studies: 1976 and 1993.
Rollman, Marcella
Foreign Language Annals, v27 n2 p221-39 Sum 1994
Measured whether beginning foreign language classes are more communicative now than they were 17 years ago. Two sets of classroom observations looked at the types and amounts of speaking activities in which beginning foreign language students engage in order to determine how and to what extent students practice the language artificially and as a real means of communication.
