前言
I consider myself very lucky and privileged to be given the opportunity to read the manuscripts ofActive English Learners Workbook series for Band 1 before they are out for general public. Atthe series editors cordial request, I venture to make the following observations. As the title of the series betrays its substance, the series are workbooks, viz. books for learnersto work on. Books of such kind cannot be more timely! The more work you do with English andin English, the more English you learn! This means time and energy. Some may be put off bythis fact, for time and energy are exactly what they are always running out of supply. ""We haveso many other things to do, " they will say. "Theres little time and energy left for English. Tellus the quickest way!" Nowadays there seems to be a general rush for English, and at the sametime an anxious rush for a short-cut route to mastering English. Unfortunately, to the best of myknowledge, there is no such thing as a short-cut way to English. There are only better or poorerways of learning it. The best way to learn is to use it, to work on it. Some of our teachers may also be put off by the Workbook series, for a totally different reason.They find that if students possess too much information, particularly feedback on exercises, theywill have nothing left to offer in class, thus de-authorising their status as a knowledgeableteacher. I have been a teacher for 21 years now. I dont find the students possession of sufficientinformation disadvantageous to me. If my students can learn more things without my help, Icannot be happier. If they can study Active English textbooks all by themselves, this will save alot of class time, which I can use to organise more productive activities such as group work, pairwork, panel discussion, inter-group debating, and so on. Furthermore, teacher-led learningtends to foster teacher-dependency, which is far from being desirable. Perhaps it is the greatestreward to a teacher whose students are taught to overtake him/her. The Workbook series will make a positive contribution to the promotion of autonomous learning.As the class size nowadays is getting increasingly large, so large that it is almost impossible forstudents to get individual attention from the teacher, autonomous learning can no long be dealtwith in a lip-service way. Teachers and administrators have to take resolute measures toimplement it in order to secure the educational quality which would otherwise deteriorate as aresult. The series have some built-in features that are specifically designed for the purpose. I feelconfident that both students and teachers will find the series helpful and worth having.
