초록

The present study was inspired by Ellis(2002)’s claim that grammar teaching materials are characterized by explicit presentation supplied and controlled production practice. Grammar has made a comeback and holds a central place in language teaching and it is worth investigating primary features of grammar teaching materials in addition to Ellis’s arguments by examining contemporary ELT textbooks. This study attempts to conduct a methodological analysis of the instructional options incorporated into grammar practice in some of the published ELT textbooks. To investigate methodological options in the grammar practice in ELT textbooks, the system of methodological options developed by Ellis(2002) is employed. The results showed that textbook writers used fairly all of the methodological options although characteristics of traditional approaches to grammar teaching still prevailed. In the process of examining methodological options, consciousness- raising(C-R) tasks were identified and those tasks were found to incorporate recent developments in SLA research. Finally, those results are discussed in terms of research developments in SLA

Abstract

The present study was inspired by Ellis(2002)’s claim that grammar teaching materials are characterized by explicit presentation supplied and controlled production practice. Grammar has made a comeback and holds a central place in language teaching and it is worth investigating primary features of grammar teaching materials in addition to Ellis’s arguments by examining contemporary ELT textbooks. This study attempts to conduct a methodological analysis of the instructional options incorporated into grammar practice in some of the published ELT textbooks. To investigate methodological options in the grammar practice in ELT textbooks, the system of methodological options developed by Ellis(2002) is employed. The results showed that textbook writers used fairly all of the methodological options although characteristics of traditional approaches to grammar teaching still prevailed. In the process of examining methodological options, consciousness- raising(C-R) tasks were identified and those tasks were found to incorporate recent developments in SLA research. Finally, those results are discussed in terms of research developments in SLA
