Böcker av Darcy Lear

This book is designed to provide foreign language teachers with very easy and practical changes they can make to their existing language teaching curriculum in order to provide students with professional skills to help them succeed in the workplace in the target language. Lear builds on the traditional curricula that foreign language teachers typically use and suggests very easy-to-implement tasks and assignments that will build students' skills in key areas. The book is organized by the type of professional skill, opening with an explanation of the content typically taught that can be tied to this skill (i.e., "here's what you are already doing"). Then, the chapter suggests how to layer professional skills over that content for career prep (i.e., "here's what to add"). Each chapter then closes with suggested materials to add to language curricula, formatted as class activities or lesson plans. Any materials that fall outside the bounds of a short format will be made available on our website. This book will be a very accessibile and practical one that crosses all language barriers.
