Working, learning and living in groups is a central feature of humans, and therefore the study of groups Ð called group dynamics Ð is a vibrant academic field, overlapping diverse areas such as psychology, sociology, business studies and political science. This innovative book addresses these issues and offers practical advice on how to manage language learner groups in a way that they develop into cohesive and productive teams. Educators interested in communicative language teaching will particularly welcome this book as a useful guide in their day-to-day teaching practice.
