This course explores ways of teaching reading skills in English as Second and Foreign Language (ESL/EFL) using a task-based approach. You will be introduced to the concept of task and the key principles of task-based language teaching (TBLT) and learning. TBLT uses communicative tasks as the key unit for creating language learning activities. You will also examine the role of reading in real-life and in second and foreign language teaching and current thinking about the interface between TBLT and second language reading. You will explore how TBLT and teaching second language reading can be successfully integrated in practice through analysing task-based reading materials. The course culminates in creating task-based materials for teaching reading in your own language teaching contexts.

Principales reseñas sobre TEACHING EFL/ESL READING: A TASK BASED APPROACH
It is very useful and authentic learning with advance scope of knowledge under the high professional experts. Very recommended
This course is reaaly useful and provides me with a deep understanding on how to design a task in teaching reading skills.
I really enjoyed the course. It was well taught and I learned a lot about how to construct and teach a "task-based" lesson.
This was by far the best among the 9 MOOCs I have taken. The peer assessments were relevant and adequately challenging.
