- CALL—past, present and future (2003, background): “The value of integrating and integrative skills was recognised at least as long ago as the early 1970s (see e.g. Oller, 1972) and was a fundamental part of communicative approaches through the 1980s (Mitchell, 1994).”
- Task-Based Language Learning (2011, background): “Arising out of pedagogic proposals for a greater emphasis on communicative activities in language teaching (see, e.g., Brumfit & Johnson, 1979; Skehan, 2003; Valdman, 1978, 1980; Widdowson, 1978, for reviews), TBLT places the construct of “task” at the center of curricular planning.”
- Factors Affecting the Implementation of Communicative Language Teaching in Taiwanese College English Classes. (2011, background): “Finally, “whether something is in fact done” implies that a sentence may be grammatically correct, feasible, and appropriate in context, but have no probability of actually occurring (Hymes, 1972, p. 14).”
- Context-appropriate crosslinguistic pedagogy: Considering the role of language status in immersion education (2017, background): “Immersion teachers are urged to discourage their students from using the majority language during minority language class time in order to enhance the status, use, and acquisition of the minority language as much as possible (Calvé, 1991; Germain, 1991; Rebuffot, 1993).”
- Learning To Live with Complexity: Towards an Ecological Perspective on Language Teaching. (2003, background): “Mackay and Mountford, 1978; Wilkins, 1976; Widdowson, 1978), as well as on the development of a new approach to classroom methodology (cf. Brumfit, 1984; Brumfit and Johnson, 1979; Savignon, 1983; Strevens, 1977).”
- Task-based instruction (2003, background): “During the 1970s there were considerable moves within language teaching to embrace the communicative approach (Brumfit & Johnson 1979).”
