Introduction 3
All the chapters have built-in reflective tasks that encourage read-
ers to pause at crucial points along the text and think critically about
the issues in light of their own personal as well as professional ex-
perience. In addition to these reflective tasks, several chapters con-
tain authentic classroom interactional data that illustrate the issues
raised and the suggestions made.

4 Introduction
Because this is not a recipe book, it does not specify any one par-
ticular way of “doing” the teaching. To do so, I believe, is to dimin-
ish the complexity of teaching as well as the capacity of teachers.
Using their own language learning and teaching experience as a
personal knowledge base, the theoretical insights on macrostrate-
gies as a professional knowledge base, the suggested microstrate-
gies as illustrative examples, and the exploratory projects as inves-
tigative tools, teachers should be able to develop their own distinct
way of teaching. In their attempt to become self-directed individu-
als, teachers may follow the same operating principles discussed in
this book, but the style and substance of the theory of practice they
eventually derive will be quite different.
