| Sumario: | The methodology of Task-based teaching (TBT) has been positively regarded by many researchers and language teachers around the world. Yet, this language teaching methodology has been mainly implemented in English as a second language (ESL) class rooms and in English for specific purpose (ESP) courses; and more specifically with advanced-level learners. The present research study aimed at proving the feasibility of a TBT approach in a different learning context: A beginning Spanish class. That is to say, contrary to the traditional TBT implementation, the experiment was conducted in a foreign language class with students bearing a low level of language proficiency. The result of the research experiment was quite positive. |
