About this product

Product Information

This book investigates the content of the grammar syllabus typically employed in mainstream English Language Teaching. Using a mixed-methods approach, the author examines how the syllabuses used in coursebooks are actually constructed, how they evolved and how valid their contents are as a basis for teaching. The research reported consists of a broad exploration of primary sources in order to outline the evolution of ELT pedagogical grammar; ten interviews with key ELT authors and publishing professionals, which allows for the investigation of the decision-making processes underlying the choice of grammar content in ELT teaching materials; and finally, the presentation of case studies which examine three areas of grammar, analysing the evolution of their treatment in ELT materials (both historical and contemporary) and comparing their current treatment to data on real learner use. This book contributes to the literature on syllabus design and pedagogical grammar and builds on existing research into materials design. It will be of interest to researchers and professionals working in the fields of applied linguistics, pedagogical grammar, curriculum design and materials design.

Reviews
Burton takes the reader on a thought-provoking tour of ELT grammar instruction that includes a historical perspective, interviews with stake holders, and detailed case studies of several popular coursebooks. It is an interesting picture of grammar and grammar instruction that leaves the reader with plenty of food for thought., This is a very readable, well-researched book, which provides a useful and much needed evaluation of the grammatical 'canon' in ELT. It helps us to understand how this canon has developed and also raises important questions about the areas which tend to feature in materials and those which do not. Essential reading for teachers, materials designers and researchers in this area., This book addresses the mystery of the grammar we teach - why are coursebook syllabuses so similar? It made me reflect critically on the grammar content of my own materials and challenged my thinking about pedagogical grammar syllabuses. Highly recommended for all grammar teachers, authors and ELT publishers.
