This video provides an overview of how to do task-based language teaching (TBLT) using the EFL coursebook Widgets Inc: A task-based course in workplace English. The coursebook employs a 'strong' version of TBLT, which makes it unlike other English language teaching materials. 

For example, lessons are organized according to task complexity rather than by language forms, and their primary goal is to develop communicative competence rather than grammatical accuracy. Self, peer, and teacher assessment is based on the appropriate completion of tasks. For more information, please visit widgepedia.com
