出版社：Association for the Teaching of English as a Foreign Language in Indonesia (TEFLIN)
摘要：This paper proposes the implementation of reading-based classroom activities for teaching English as a foreign language in Indonesia. Com- pared to other language skills, reading is viewed to provide a relatively stable foundation for Indonesian students to develop their communicative competence in English. It is argued that reading-focused activities stimulate confidence for Indonesian learners to get involved in listening, speaking, and writing related-activities in ways that are similar to normal daily life communication. The reasons for the proposed implementation of reading-based classroom activities in TEFLIN and the role of reading and its relation with other language skills are presented.
