This teaching guide provides instruction in the use of language laboratories and the administration of various types of exercises. The audio-active and audio-active-compare laboratories are described, and arguments for each are offered. After a brief discussion of the choice of material to be learned, an analysis of the following methods for practice and reinforcement is presented: pattern drills, situational dialogues, conversation models, pronunciation and intonation training, listening exercises, and poems and songs. Extensive examples of repetition, reiteration, substitution, transformation, and contextualization drills; a glossary of technical and pedagogical terms; and a bibliography are provided. (RS)
