Description
Task-based learning (TBL) and Constructivism are not new ideas, but they are perhaps the most recent focus. A reaction to education policies, based on the grammar-translation methodology, which has proven to be ineffective in ESL, it is also a reaction to the inability of students to perform in real life situations after achieving reasonably high scores in TOEIC tests.
