    Book SynopsisThis book brings together the work of those implementing, using, or researching the Seal of Biliteracy (SoBL) in higher education contexts. Book chapters detail how various institutions of higher education (IHEs) are leveraging their stateâs SoBL policy and/or the Global SoBL to promote biliteracy within and across communities. In all 50 United States, high school graduates can earn a state SoBL, which is noted on the high school transcript to certify the ability to read, write, speak, and listen in more than one language. An increasing number of IHEs recognize the SoBL, and evidence suggests that such policies can serve as a recruitment tool, boost enrollment in modern language departments, and facilitate placement into modern language coursework. This book provides examples of how IHEs can implement the state SoBL, the Global SoBL, or their own recognition to recognize studentsâ multilingualism, boost enrollment, enhance practice, and nurture biliteracy in their communities

The Psychology of the Language Learner Revisited will appeal to students and researchers in a wide range of disciplines, including applied linguistics, second language acquisition, modern languages, and psychology.

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisWith the impact of accelerated globalization, digital technologies, mobility, and migration, the fields of Applied Linguistics, Language, and Intercultural Education have been shifting. One shift in need of further exploration is that of systematic and coherent reflexivity in researching language and culture. This unique and timely book thus examines the significance of reflexivity as an integral process, particularly when researching the multifaceted notions of multilingualism and interculturality in education. It also contributes to current critical approaches to representations of languages and cultures in identity politics. As such, the authors offer innovative ways of engaging with reflexivity in teaching, learning, and research through multimodal and complex ways. The chapters span a diverse range of educational settings in Asia, Australia, Europe, and North America.Trade Review"The collection of chapters is valuable particularly because it emphasises that reflexivity should be seen as a dynamic and evolving notion that is applicable to all those involved in research and pedagogy and that can be applied positively to equalise power relationships and lead to greater centrality and legitimacy of the research participant or learner." - John Kullman, School of Language Studies and Applied Linguistics, Canterbury Christ Church University, EnglandTable of ContentsIntroduction Julie S.

    Book SynopsisDespite advancements in and availability of corpus software in language classrooms facilitating data-driven learning (DDL), the use of such methods with pre-tertiary learners remains rare. This book specifically explores the affordances of DDL for younger learners, testing its viability with teachers and students at the primary and secondary years of schooling. It features eminent and up-and-coming researchers from Europe, Asia, and Australasia who seek to address best practice in implementing DDL with younger learners, while providing a wealth of empirical findings and practical DDL activities ready for use in the pre-tertiary classroom.Divided into three parts, the volume's first section focuses on overcoming emerging challenges for DDL with younger learners, including where and how DDL can be integrated into pre-tertiary curricula, as well as potential barriers to this integration. It then considers new, cutting-edge innovations in corpora and corpus software for use with Trade Review'This book is an exciting, thoughtful and wide-ranging collection of papers from some of the leaders in the area of DDL. It is an understatement to say that it is long overdue! Amazingly, almost three decades have passed since DDL emerged as a pedagogical approach in language teaching and, in all of that time, this is the first edited volume to curate work on the use of DDL specifically in the context of young learners. While the volume is very forward-looking in the context of ever-improving technology and availability of corpus data and tools, contributors do not shy away from the challenges that have prevailed over the years to limit the mainstreaming of DDL as a pedagogical practice. Authors, exploring primary and secondary school learning contexts, showcase the potential of DDL for young learners but they consistently point to the need for more research, better teacher development and more equitable access to technology in primary and secondary schools. This book is a fanfare to what DDL has to offer in the context of language teaching in primary and secondary schools and, for sure, it will inspire teachers and researchers to open up to the opportunities of DDL for young learners.' - Dr Anne O'Keeffe, MIC, University of Limerick, Ireland'This is a very timely collection of papers that showcase recent research on pedagogical corpus use in primary and secondary school settings. The book will no doubt serve as an invaluable resource for anyone who is curious about whether and how DDL can work with younger learners, and for anyone who is ready to be inspired by some of the leading teacher-researchers in the field. Highly recommended!' - Ute Römer, Associate Professor of Applied Linguistics, Georgia State University, USA'This interesting and timely collection of studies is an essential reading for anyone conducting research on Data-Driven Learning (DDL) or considering using this approach with young learners. Together, the authors of the chapters present an in-depth review of the relevant literature on DDL, explain its strengths and weaknesses, and discuss the conceptual barriers and technical difficulties that might need to be overcome before the approach can be successfully adopted in the classroom. The book also describes some innovative uses of mainstream and custom DDL tools as well as offering many practical suggestions for designing useful DDL activities. In short, it is an extremely valuable resource.' - Laurence Anthony, Professor, Faculty of Science and Engineering, Waseda University, JapanTable of ContentsForewordAlex Boulton1.

    Book SynopsisThis book reignites discussion on the importance of collaboration and innovation in language education. The pivotal difference highlighted in this volume is the concept of team learning through collaborative relationships such as team teaching. It explores ways in which team learning happens in ELT environments and what emerges from these explorations is a more robust concept of team learning in language education. Coupled with this deeper understanding, the value of participant research is emphasised by defining the notion of team' to include all participants in the educational experience. Authors in this volume position practice ahead of theory as they struggle to make sense of the complex phenomena of language teaching and learning. The focus of this book is on the nexus between ELT theory and practice as viewed through the lens of collaboration. The volume aims to add to the current knowledge base in order to bridge the theory-practice gap regarding collaboration for innovation Trade Review"Team Teaching and Team Learning in the Language Classroom not only provides a comprehensive review of team teaching over its initial decades and valuable classroom strategies and techniques, it also highlights innovations in content learning, the integration of new technologies, curriculum design and teacher training all in the context of furthering education as a collaborative social endeavor.In the midst of top-down policy interventions in education, this volume confronts the trends toward standardization and personal competitiveness by embracing the social nature of education, collaboration and innovation, and provides a framework for quality learner outcomes in an array of language learning contexts throughout Asia and Europe." - Larry Walker, Kyoto Prefectural University"Overall this book succeeds in its purpose: The connection between practice and theory and how theoretical models can be applied to team teaching are explained. The importance of creating social awareness is evident in the overarching theme of collaboration. Throughout the chapters, it is made clear that communication and collaboration between educators can be a powerful tool for learning. Using some of the ideas outlined in this book, teachers can develop ideas for collaboration with their students and fellow teachers." - Steven G. B.

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisThe role of English in the global arena has prompted official language-in-education policy makers to adopt language education policies to enable its citizens to be proficient in English and to access knowledge. Local educational contexts in different countries have implemented English education in their own ways with different pedagogical goals, motivations, features and pedagogies. While much of the research cited in English language planning policy has focused on macro level language policy and planning, there is an increasing interest in micro planning, in particular teacher agency in policy response. Individual teacher agency is a multifaceted amalgam, not only of teachers' individual histories, professional training, personal values and instructional beliefs, but also of how these interact with local interpretations and appropriations of policy.Teacher Agency and Policy Response in English Language Teaching examines the agency of the teacher in negotiating educational reTrade ReviewTeacher agency in TESOL – should we be pessimistic or optimistic? This book provides much needed data and analysis across a diverse range of international sites. Now we can begin to answer the question based on more than just pessimism of the intellect and optimism of the will. -- Graham Crookes, University of Hawai’iMany new policies for the teaching of English give the distinct impression of being introduced, not so much because they are based on sound research and evidence of their success, but because of ‘common-sense’ assumptions about how languages are learned and how they should be taught. Into this equation, in recent decades, has entered a kind of universal anxiety on the part of educational policy makers that without English, their nations will be left behind politically, economically and socially. ... Readers of this volume will find in these pages an intriguing compilation of classroom scenarios, instructional contingencies, and policy responses, at the heart of which is the agency of the language teacher. In response to the currently limited scope of research on micro-level language education policy, the editors have found a niche that is richly filled by the accounts that follow. -- Anne Burns, ForewordTable of Contents1.

    Book SynopsisThis book shows how corpus analyses can enhance students', practitioners' and researchers' knowledge of academic language. The book provides a reader-friendly discussion of the key concepts, practices and research applications of corpus linguistics which are relevant to the EAP community.The volume: empowers readers to compile and analyze EAP-relevant corpora to support their practice; draws on open-access resources, allowing readers in all contexts to engage in corpus analyses; examines how corpus studies have advanced the description of spoken, written and computer-mediated academic discourses; contains numerous reflective and hands-on tasks.Corpus Linguistics for English for Academic Purposes is an essential book for EAP students, practitioners and researchers who wish to develop corpus analytical skills to support their learning, teaching and research practice. It is equally important to novice corpus linguists who wish to find ouTrade Review"This important and timely addition to the EAP literature provides a wealth of information and practical know-how on the potential of corpus analysis to support students, EAP practitioners and EAP researchers in developing understanding of academic English. Readers will come back to this book time and time again for evidence-based information on academic English and as a practical guide to using corpus analysis. The book should be essential reading on EAP teacher education programs." -Prof Helen Basturkmen, University of Auckland"In the last 20 years corpora have become central to EAP: transforming how we study and teach language for academic purposes by providing more detailed and robust descriptions of texts and encouraging students to take a more active and reflective part in their learning. In this up-to-date and highly accessible book, Viana and O’Boyle provide a well-structured and highly readable introduction to the use of corpus analysis in English for Academic Purposes, taking the reader from basic word searches to more complex analyses of tagged texts and lexical phrases. The book is packed with clear definitions, authentic examples, useful classroom ideas and step-by-step guides on how to conduct analyses of corpora which are freely available online. Regular comprehension questions and reflective tasks help scaffold this journey of research-informed reflective EAP practice. This, then, is an exceptionally valuable addition to the literature on EAP and will be extremely useful to those seeking to learn how they can use corpora to both research and teach academic English." -Prof Ken Hyland, University of East Anglia"Corpus Linguistics for English for Academic Purposes is a very welcome addition to volumes specifically targeting EAP practitioners and researchers. First and foremost, the book provides clear, practical step-by-step guidance on exploring academic discourse through freely accessible corpora and search tools. In this way, the book is also of use to anyone interested in approaches to investigating language use. But this book offers even more. Including examples from corpus studies of written, spoken and computer-mediated academic discourse, the book provides those in the field of EAP with a range of insights into academic communication – not least the importance of attending to disciplinary variation. Each chapter is very clearly set out, with regular tasks and practical activities to engage the reader and develop skills. The practical tools and techniques are also exemplified throughout showing just how invaluable how corpus linguistics can be for the EAP practitioner. If you are interested in learning more about how corpus linguistics can inform EAP practice, wish to develop practical skills for exploring corpora, or are leading courses exploring academic discourse, then this is book for you." –Dr Carole MacDiarmid, University of Glasgow"The book has several strengths. First is the high replicability of the clear and detailed methodological explanations, allowing readers from various backgrounds to replicate the procedures in their explorations. Readers are pointed toward corpus tools not only allowing for working with freely general and specialized available corpora (Chapter 3), but also for self-built corpora (Chapter 5); not only for online corpora examination but also for offline corpora investigation (Chapter 6). Second is its comprehensiveness because of its broad coverage of topics, disciplines, genres (e.g., occluded genres in Chapter 4) and registers (e.g., CMAD in Chapter 9). The third one is its accessibility. It provides the types of corpora available, with home page hyperlinks and key compositions, saving readers considerable time compiling corpora." –Review by Hongyan Zhao and Jingyuan Zhang (both from the University of Science and Technology Beijing) in the Journal of English for Academic PurposesTable of Contents Chapter 1: Introduction 1.1) What is EAP? 1.2) Why have we written this book? 1.3) How is this book structured?

    Book SynopsisThe Routledge Handbook of Language and Superdiversity provides an accessible and authoritative overview of this growing area, the linguistic analysis of interaction in superdiverse cities. Developed as a descriptive term to account for the increasingly stratified processes and effects of migration in Western Europe, âsuperdiversityâ has the potential to contribute to an enhanced understanding of mobility, complexity, and change, with theoretical, practical, global, and methodological reach.With seven sections edited by leading names, the handbook includes 35 state-of-the art chapters from international authorities. The handbook adopts a truly interdisciplinary approach, covering: Cultural heritage Sport Law Education Business and entrepreneurship. The result is a truly comprehensive account of how people live, work and communicate in superdiverse spaces.This volumeTrade ReviewSuresh Canagarajah, Penn State, USAI am of the view that this book will be an important publication in the fields of applied linguistics and sociolinguistics to further our understanding of language diversity in our globalizing world.. The editors succeed in showing the need for the handbook and the way it carves its own niche in the market.He had a few very constructive suggestions, including adding a section on education, which I am discussing with the editors.John Gray, Univ of East London, UKA handbook at this stage would be an invaluable resource, given this proliferation and indeed recent critique of the concept... Such a volume would also sit well in the Applied Linguistics series, given the centrality of language in work on superdiversity.. There are many strengths – the involvement of a team of already recognised scholars of international standing; the interdisciplinary focus and the centrality of language are all noteworthy.Main suggestion was to add a section on education, as SC above. This does reflect the background of both readers but it is clearly important.Table of ContentsDedicationAcknowledgementsList of illustrationsList of contributorsIntroduction - Adrian Blackledge and Angela CreesePART I – edited by Jenny Phillimore and Li WeiLanguage and superdiversity Repertoires, registers, and linguistic diversity Alastair Pennycook Linguistic (super)diversity, post-multilingualism and translanguaging moments Li Wei Superdiversity perspective and the sociolinguistics of social media Sirpa Leppänen, Saija Peuronen and Elina Westinen Superdiversity as a lens to understand complexities Dirk Geldof "All the people speak bad English".

    Book SynopsisThis must-have handbook offers a comprehensive survey of the field. It reviews the language education policies of Asia, encompassing 30 countries sub-divided by regions, namely East, Southeast, South and Central Asia, and considers the extent to which these are being implemented and with what effect. The most recent iteration of language education policies of each of the countries is described and the impact and potential consequence of any change is critically considered. Each country chapter provides a historical overview of the languages in use and language education policies, examines the ideologies underpinning the language choices, and includes an account of the debates and controversies surrounding language and language education policies, before concluding with some predictions for the future.Trade Review'It can be a difficult task to keep up with the rapid changes in language education policy as Asian nations try their best to balance preservation of their own languages and adding proficiency in other languages as demanded by the globalized market. This new handbook, edited by two scholars with long experience in the field and with chapters written by local experts, is exactly the resource you need to navigate this everchanging area. It is a significant addition to the literature on the topic.' - Bernard Spolsky, Professor Emeritus, Bar-Ilan University, Israel'Choices in language education policy in Asia are remarkably complex. The region contains the most linguistically diverse societies on earth, enriched by ancient and validated literary traditions and dozens of scripts and orthographic traditions. This Handbook will be an invaluable intellectual and practical resource for researchers, teachers, policy makers and community members. It is an impressive effort with a comprehensive coverage of countries and geographic regions, language education policy types and their effects.' - Joseph Lo Bianco, Professor of Language and Literacy Education, University of Melbourne, AustraliaTable of ContentsNotes on contributorsPart 1: Overview1.
