%0 Journal Article %A Díaz Cristóbal, Marina %T Task negotiation to overcome the limitations and the dislike of the textbook %D 2008 %U http://hdl.handle.net/10017/10071 %X Lack of motivation, inattention, boredom, noise, etc., are some of the many problems that teachers in general complain about. We often blame the students’ lack of interest and manners when it is impossible to reconduct a group, no matter how much time we devote to lesson planning or to polish our relationship with the students. The following study highlights textbook selection and students’ learning style as factors which may lead to a bad learning environment if not dealt with properly. According to the results reached, task negotiation appears to be a valid solution when students show a dislike for the textbook and, besides, it allows teachers to cater for different learning styles. %K Task negotiation %K Learning styles %K Self-assessment %K Negociación de tareas %K Estilos de aprendizaje %K Auto-evaluación %~ Biblioteca Universidad de Alcala
