This chapter covers the second phase in the task-based learning framework – the task cycle. It describes in detail the three components of the task cycle, task, planning and report, and examines the role of the teacher in each. It emphasises the importance of writing in the learning process and shows how the stages of the task cycle can be adapted to different teaching situations.
