Publisher's Synopsis
Knowing how to use a dictionary and other reference materials is an essential aspect of learner autonomy. New curricula and exam syllabuses recognize this. This book demonstrates how dictionary skills stimulate a sense of enquiry and discovery and help learners to become independent. Pupils need to learn how to use a dictionary efficiently and effectively - and when to use and not use it. With the aid of many practical examples and activities, this book should help teachers to support their learners in doing just that.
