内容説明

The advent of satellite television worldwide has led to a huge increase in the number of channels available. For the first time in the history of television as a mass medium, language learners can eavesdrop on the most popular information and entertainment medium of the target culture. But what is there to be learnt from this resource, and how can learners and teachers make the most of it? This book explores the relationship between language and culture, focusing on some of the most frequent and popular genres shown on television such as news, game shows, soap operas and adverts. The author shows how these genres can provide the potential for developing language learning. She discusses and illustrates different strategic approaches, and includes suggestions for teaching and learning.
