Moving Beyond the Grammatical Syllabus

Practical Strategies for Content-Based Curriculum Design.

This concise book calls upon foreign language teachers to plan intellectually challenging learning experiences that help their learners develop the linguistic skills they need in an increasingly diverse world.

In this concise and practical book, Martel advocates for a content-based approach to foreign language curriculum design that emphasizes communicative competence, cognitive engagement, and social justice. Intended primarily for busy teachers with limited preparation time, the book includes:

• An introduction to content-based instruction and its use to date in foreign language education
• Step-by-step strategies for designing content-based unit plans, lesson plans, and assessments
• A complete curricular unit that serves as a guiding example, including nine lesson plans and a summative assessment

The book is accompanied by a website that will feature additional examples of content-based curricular materials across a range of languages and proficiency levels, available at http://cbi.middcreate.net/movingbeyond.
