Grammar Teaching for the Acquisition-Rich Classroom.
VanPatten, Bill
Foreign Language Annals, v26 n4 p435-50 Win 1993
The nature of grammar instruction is examined, and traditional instruction as explanation plus "output" practice is questioned. It is suggested that an input-oriented approach would be more effective. A type of input-based instruction called "processing instruction" is outlined. (Contains 30 references.) (Author/LB)
