Comparisons

1) In task Nº1 there is only vocabulary involved and reading. It is also a controlled task and

students are consumers because all the vocabulary is given.

2) Also, in task Nº2, students are producers and not consumers ( as in task Nº2) because the

vegetables are given.

3) In activity Nº3, students do a semi-controlled activity because the teacher gives them the

vocabulary. The role of the students is “consumer”, he/she is only selecting where to put

the different food.

The most effective option would be task Nº2 because it includes functions, vocabulary

more skills, such us: speaking, reading and writing.

On the other hand, task Nº2 includes vocabulary functions, grammar structures, strategic

awareness and most importantly: Product.
