Researching Educational Practices, Teacher Education and Professional Development for Early Language Learning
Recognising the urgent need for further progress in teacher education and preparation for the success of early language learning, this volume presents research on the education and professional development of teachers, exploring how they can foster multilingual spaces in the early years of formal education. Investigating a range of European contexts, the book examines the effectiveness of teacher education for early language learning, covering contexts of multilingualism and English as a foreign language (EFL) with children under the age of 12. Split into three parts examining research into teacher practices, education, and curricula, chapters cover emerging topics such as teacher education ...
The Development of the Grammatical System in Early Second Language Acquisition
Shortlisted for the Christopher Brumfit Award in Applied Linguistics.The Development of the Grammatical System in Early Second Language Acquisition focuses on the acquisition process of early L2 learners. It is based on the following key hypothesis: the initial mental grammatical system of L2 learners is constrained semantically, syntactically and mnemonically. This hypothesis is formalised as the Multiple Constraints Hypothesis. The empirical test of the Multiple Constraints Hypothesis is based on a large database including cross-sectional and longitudinal data from square-one ESL beginners. The study demonstrates that the postulated constraints are relaxed successively as learning progresses. The book is intended for postgraduate students as well as SLA researchers.
Developing, Modelling and Assessing Second Languages
This edited volume brings together the work of a number of researchers working in the framework of Processability Theory (PT), a psycholinguistic theory of second language acquisition (SLA) (Pienemann 1998; 2005). The aim of the volume is two-fold: It engages with current issues in both theory development and theory application and focuses on theoretical developments within the framework of PT as well as issues related to second language teaching and assessment. In coordinating approaches to addressing both theoretical and applied aspects of SLA, this volume aims at bridging the gap between theory and practice. It also reflects the richness of debate within the field of PT-based research. The volume is intended for postgraduate students, SLA researchers as well as language teachers. As of January 2019, this e-book is freely available, thanks to the support of libraries working with Knowledge Unlatched.
The Handbook of Informal Language Learning
Provides a comprehensive and unique examination of global language learning outside of the formal school setting Authored by a prominent team of international experts in their respective fields, The Handbook of Informal Language Learning is a one-of-a-kind reference work and it is a timely and valuable resource for anyone looking to explore informal language learning outside of a formal education environment. It features a comprehensive collection of cutting edge research areas exploring the cultural and historical cases of informal language learning, along with the growing area of digital language learning, and the future of this relevant field in national development and language education...
Teaching English in the Primary School
Grundschulenglisch kompetent unterrichten Qualitativ hochwertiger Englischunterricht in der Grundschule hängt vor allem von der professionellen Kompetenz der Lehrkräfte ab. Der vorliegende Band in englischer Sprache behandelt in 13 Kapiteln grundlegende Themen und Konzepte für deren Entwicklung in Aus- und Fortbildung sowie im Selbststudium. Der Praxisband geht auf die besonderen Bedingungen der Bundesrepublik Deutschland ein und berücksichtigt die internationalen Forschungen zum Fremdsprachenunterricht in der Grundschule. Er ist dabei dem aufgabenorientierten Lehren und Lernen verpflichtet. Ausgehend von der Heterogenität heutiger Grundschulkinder und der Komplexität des fremdsprachli...

Fremdsprachendidaktik als Wissenschaft und Ausbildungsdisziplin
Die universitäre Fremdsprachendidaktik verfolgt seit langem eine doppelte Ausrichtung: In ihrer Funktion als forschende Disziplin erforscht, beschreibt und interpretiert sie Unterricht, seine Teilnehmer:innen sowie seine Lehr-Lernprozesse. Als (aus-)bildende Disziplin beschäftigt sie sich u.a. mit dem übergeordneten Ziel, (zukünftige) Fremdsprachenlehrkräfte aus- bzw. weiterzubilden. Diese doppelte Ausrichtung der Fremdsprachendidaktik wurde lange Zeit eher als Widerspruch und nicht als sich notwendigerweise bedingende Ergänzung aufgefasst. Entscheidende Beiträge für das Zusammendenken und Zusammenwachsen hat Daniela Caspari während ihrer gesamten bisherigen beruflichen Laufbahn geleistet. Zu ihrem 60. Geburtstag versammelt die vorliegende Festschrift Beiträge von 32 Autor:innen, die mit ihren Überlegungen zur fremdsprachendidaktik als forschende und (aus-)bildende Disziplin das kreative und bedeutsame Schaffen der Jubilarin an dieser für das Selbstverständnis des Faches so wichtigen Schnittstelle würdigen.
Theoretical and Methodological Developments in Processability Theory
This edited volume is devoted to expanding the theoretical basis of Processability Theory, a theory of second language development that combines insights in the way speakers generate language and store their language knowledge to predict, describe and explain developmental sequences (Pienemann 1998, 2005). The aim of the book is to provide a forum for new perspectives focusing on three intersections: (1) the interface between morpho-syntax and discourse/pragmatics/semantics, (2) constraints on processing and receptive processing and (3) developments in instructed second language learning. Each part also includes a response paper, in which the new perspectives, in terms of the theoretical challenges and/or the empirical results of the preceding chapters are discussed. This collection of articles and response papers will be very relevant to students and researchers interested in theoretical aspects of second language acquisition, and more specifically Processability Theory, and clearly indicates that the field is lively and open.
