Focusing on high cognitive activation through complex tasks in English language teaching, this book explores a vital quality teaching criterion that enhances student autonomy and competence. Drawing insights from a teacher training workshop, it reveals how trained educators effectively apply these strategies to improve both basic interpersonal communicative skills (BICS) and cognitive academic language proficiency skills (CALPS). The book also presents a didactic model for teacher training, emphasizing the development of strong thinkers capable of navigating complex challenges.
