A Good Resource

For those who are interested in the application of collaborative language learning, David Nunan has collected a number of articles which cover this topic in great detail. This book is focused on the theory and research into collaborative language learning, so if you're looking for a book on collaborative language learning activities, this is not it. One interesting point about this book that isn't covered much in other books is that about half of it deals with collaborative teaching (team teaching). If you're interested in the field of collaborative teaching, then this is a must. If you're not interested in team teaching, then only about half of this book will be of interest to you.
