2. Task-Based Language Teaching (TBLT or TBT)
🔹 Principles

    Tasks are the central unit of planning and instruction: A task is an activity that requires meaningful language use to achieve an outcome.

    Focus on meaning first, form later: Language forms are taught as needed to complete tasks.

    Learner autonomy and problem-solving: Students actively engage in completing real-world tasks.

    Integration of skills: Reading, writing, speaking, and listening often combined in one task.

🔹 Applications

    Project-based tasks like planning a trip or conducting a survey.

    Real-life simulations (e.g., negotiating a contract, creating a menu).

    Collaborative problem-solving tasks, such as designing a product or solving a local issue.

    Reflection and feedback: After task completion, students reflect on performance and language use.
