Syllabus types

[Jaguar]

Hello,

I have to write an assignment regarding syllabus types.

For example:

Grammatical – Lexical – Grammatical/Lexical – Situational – Topic-based – Notional – Functional/Notional – Mixed or multi-strandard – Procedural – Process – Analytic – Synthetic

I have found information in books by Scrivener and Harmer, but I’d really like to have some more information to go on. Could someone please give me a few good links for extra reading?

Thanks loads

Jag
