  8. Good afternoon Mr. Monge
    a learning task is a tool we use to help the learner focus on the meaning instead of the formal aspect of it. Also learners construct and integrate information through the whole process of doing a learning task; therefore learners feel encourage to actively participate. The more learners do the more they comprehend. Teachers role is to assess actively.

  15. In simple words it is an activity or action that people do in which is necessary the instruction of the teacher to get a final result. The use of tasks helps to improve language teaching because students have to talk to each other during the process of it and it is important to say that all tasks have a meaning purpose that is done maybe consciously or unconsciously by the students. Through tasks students learn, catch and understand the ideas better. Lilia Mejia

  18. Hi, this is the third time I attempt to post something. I tried twice from my phone without succeding, after writing the whole thing :(. Now I just realized it can be done via PC only.

    On one hand, a task is any particular action having to do with work such as doing the chores or complying with any given instruction such as making a bulletin board or getting a house painted. A task, linguistically talking is the performance of an action as a result of understanding language. The development of several language tasks would elicit not only linguistic but also communicative competence. Last, but not least, pedagogically speaking, a task would be a more complex process that involves an objective, an outcome, specified content, and the efficient execution of a procedure.

  19. When I see the word "task" I think of something to do.. like a chore, and combine it with "learning" well it tells me it is some kind of activity that can help achive a certarin learning goal. It is my opinion that within a classroom both, teacher and student have certain tasks to fullfill or to accomplish and it is best if they are worked at as a team, since students need a good amount of guidance to follow the learning path they want and the teacher can provide such guidance to acomplish all tasks ahead.
