Using the Principles of Exploratory Practice to Guide Group Work in an Extensive Reading Class in China
Zhang, Ruwen
Language Teaching Research, v8 n3 p331-345 2004
Exploratory Practice emphasizes integrating research into pedagogy, and attaches great importance to the quality of life in the classroom. It suggests that we work primarily to understand language classroom life, to bring people together, and to develop students' language competency in a harmonious atmosphere.By putting EP principles into my teaching practice, I explore ways of solving a problem I experienced in teaching English extensive reading to English majors in a Chinese University.
