Take the following as truth: When my students and I approached the heart of the course'talking the English language'nothing seemed to work for me until I closed all the books and compelled two or three students at a time to put themselves in commonplace situations in which they had to speak English.
Then the following statement: "I would ask students to open their books and read silently for the duration of the class." is true, false, or inconclusive?
