From Utterances to Speech Acts

By Mikhail Kissine

"Kissine offers a new theory of speech acts which is philosophically sophisticated and builds on work in cognitive science, formal semantics, and linguistic typology. This highly readable, brilliant essay is a major contribution to the field."

--François Recanati, Institut Jean-Nicod

One very nice program that I've used in my teacher training work is 'Hot
Potatoes' - a free (for educational use) program that allows you to author
interactive web page-based quizzes, clozes, comprehension exercises, etc.

The new version (4) in particular is genuinely easy to use and goes down
very well with even those teachers with very little computer experience.

You can find out more about the program (available for both PCs and Macs)
