Beschreibung
This book proposes Meaning-order Approach to Pedagogical Grammar (MAP Grammar) as a practical pedagogical approach in ESL and EFL contexts. Teaching grammar through an easy-to-understand three-dimensional model, MAP Grammar establishes the clause as the fundamental unit of English and interprets meaning units in the sentence, thus allowing visualizable association between individual grammar items. By focusing on the order of meaning (rather than the order of words) in a sentence, MAP Grammar also distills current descriptive sentence structures (typically taught as five or seven patterns) into one meaning-based sentence structure for teaching and learning. MAP Grammar makes syllabus design and teaching easier in the following ways:
Visualizing English grammar in a clear model, allowing association between individual grammar items.
Instruction relies on meaning, not metalanguage, making MAP Grammar easy to grasp.
The meaning-based sentence structure allows teachers to address global errors, and learners to produce comprehensible English.

Rezensionen / Stimmen
Meaning-Based Pedagogical Grammar provides a fresh new approach to grammar teaching and learning for communication. It is an exciting development, grounded in linguistic theory, that helps both teachers and learners to see the big picture of English grammar. Meaning-Based Pedagogical Grammar is perhaps the easiest way to teach. -- Professor Akihiko Haisa, Department of English Language, Culture, and Communication, Sagami Women's University'Given these minor caveats, the book makes a significant contribution to the literature by laying out a practical approach to teaching communication-oriented grammar. Readers, whether they consider themselves students, teachers, learners, or researchers, will be inspired by the lucid presentation of MAP grammar and its accessibility for practitioners and, most importantly, for learners.' - Larry Walker, Professor, Kyoto Prefectual University, Japan
