| Body | Russian through Task: Task-Based/Task Supported Instruction of RFL
Do you teach Russian as a foreign language? Do you employ task-based/supported (TB/TS) instruction to any degree? Please consider submitting a proposal for a chapter or a case study in the monograph Russian through Task to be published by IPR Media. We would like to hear from various fields and backgrounds of Russian language instruction: formal university class and non-conventional spaces, like community school work with heritage speakers. Language of publication: Russian and English.
We are equally interested in theory-heavy explorations and submissions that focus on teaching experience with or without theoretical inquiry for the Case Study practice-oriented part.
Send proposals to Svetlana Nuss, University of Alaska, svnuss@alaska.edu.
