This review is from: Using Authentic Video in the Language Classroom (Cambridge Handbooks for Language Teachers) (Paperback)
Jane Sherman offers explanations of the rationale behind using authentic video which are convincing even to the technologically resistant old guard. Classrooms are clearly enlivened and teaching can be rendered more effective with even simple applications of the ideas presented. A glance through the plethora of suggestions inspires the reader to imagine implementing the ideas as soon as possible and to dream up other ways to creatively use film to stimulate authentic communication among students. Sherman has gifted educators with a thorough treatment of ways to use film in the language classroom. I, for one, admit that my teaching is the better for having read and used it.
