Dear list members, It has been a recent trend, although controversial, that less grammar is implemented in EFL textbooks in Japan. Accordingly, more communicative or oral approaches have been introduced. Is there a similar trend in EFL classrooms in other non-English speaking countries? Could anyone direct me to some books or/and dissertations on this issues. I would prefer online resources for the time being. Only abstracts would be very helpful. Thank you.
