022: ESL Students as Changemakers with Lucie Dumont

The question remains, what exactly are the most effective methods for teaching grammar. Here, teachers do disagree on what types of grammar teaching methods are the most effective. Some teachers begin their classes with prescribed grammar exercises, one lesson following and building upon the next. Some try to bring it up more organically in classroom settings and address it only when errors occur, but what does the research show?
