A typical communicative task is one in which one member of a pair has information which the other member does not. The task is to pass the information successfully.

Here is David Nunan's definition: "A [communicative] task is defined as a piece of classroom work that involves learners in comprehending, manipulating, producing, or interacting in the target language while their attention is focused principally on meaning rather than form."

Description of the communicative task

We devised a communicative task to be carried out by a group of four pupils, who are at the end of the Basisvorming (Core Curriculum). The aim of the task is to arrange a weekend in London for four. Each pupil is responsible for a subpart of the organization of the weekend. There are four parts to be arranged, namely:

There are four booklets, each containing an introduction to the task, budgetary and personal restrictions, and information on one sub-part of the task.

Restrictions

To ensure a maximum of spoken interaction, the following restriction applies: pupils are not allowed to read other pupils' booklets.
Another limitation is the budget of £155 per person. This makes compromises necessary.
Finally, each pupil gets a set of personal preferences he or she has to bring into the discussion.
