Effective practices for teaching oral language through genres and an instructional program that incorporates them

Abstract

This contribution has a twofold objective: (1) to list effective practices for teaching oral language through genres, based on the latest research findings and (2) to propose a training program that uses these practices. To achieve this aim, we first explore effective practices for teaching oral language through genres, based on the literature. In the second part, we present Itineraries, an instructional program that implements these effective practices.
