TESOL Programme Competition

Dear Mitch,

In 1989, I had just published Designing Tasks for the Communicative Classroom and shortly afterwards, I received a copy of Process and Experience in the Language Classroom which I devoured in a sitting, pausing at new insights and perspectives, and thinking I wish I’d written that.  (Who knows? In the fullness of time, maybe I will!) And so began a personal and professional friendship that has spanned over 40 years and extended across the globe, from Europe to Asia, and Europe to the Antipodes.

When Julie and I were invited individually to contribute a task to celebrate your extraordinary achievements, Julie suggested we collaborate. After some negotiation, Julie selected the task that accompanies this message. She uses this task with her Master of TESOL students to orient them to CLT and TBLT. The students form small groups and are given thirty minutes to scour the campus for artifacts to support their case. Back in the classroom, each group creates PowerPoint slides and rehearses their pitch to the rest of the class using new language features provided by the teacher related to persuasive techniques.

“So why did you choose this particular task?” I ask.

“Remember the time Mitch stayed with us in Sydney and showed us a DVD of his Airport project?”

“Of course.”

“You asked him, ‘Why an airport?’”

 “He replied ‘Every city has an international airport.’”

Extending the metaphor, Julie decided every learning environment has resources for connecting the classroom to the experiential world.

Until we meet again, my dear friend,

David & Julie
