I completely agree with Taylor (2022) that a proportion of the students’ grades based on participation or effort would surely facilitate the implementation of ER or any other of the four skills. Improvement in actual ability can only occur through meaning-based input and output activities (see Nation, 2007) which are by and large denied students due to the focus on intensive language study.
