This is a book about how language teachers themselves rather than
curriculum specialists develop and implement their own courses. The
paperback edition illuminates the process of course development through
the narratives of six ELT teachers who have designed courses in widely
varying contexts worldwide. Graves provides a framework for course
design and examines how these six teachers have utilized or departed
from the framework in meeting the challenges of their particular
situations. Each narrative is followed by an analysis and a set of tasks
that direct the reader's attention to a particular aspect of the
framework.
