Through debate, students learn how to make hypotheses, support their conclusions with evidence, and deploy the rhetoric of persuasion in the target language. While interest in this topic is strong, there are few materials available for instructors who wish to plan a curriculum focused on debate. This digital short provides both the theoretical argument for using debate in the foreign language classroom as well as practical advice for developing reading, listening, writing, and speaking skills through debate. It discusses task-based language learning and helps instructors design debate-related tasks for the classroom. The digital short can be used by any instructor who is working at the advanced level, and it could be used in courses for future language instructors. It can also be used by instructors who adopt one of our forthcoming Mastering Languages through Global Debate textbooks. 650 0 $a Language and languages $x Ability testing. 650 0 $a Language and languages $x Study and teaching. 650 0 $a Second language acquisition. 650 0 $a Debates and debating. 650 7 $a Debates and debating. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00888743 650 7 $a Language and languages $x Ability testing. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00992155 650 7 $a Language and languages $x Study and teaching. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00992220 650 7 $a Second language acquisition. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01110576 700 1 $a Bown, Jennifer, $e author. 776 08 $i Online version: $a Brown, Tony. $t Teaching Advanced Language Skills through Global Debate. $d Washington : Georgetown University Press, 2014 $z 9781626161443 $w (DLC) 2016040668 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20170503024056.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=32A9B8AC19C611E7BD0085CCDAD10320 994 $a 92 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
