Description
Book SynopsisThe principles of language learning and teaching are presented for language teachers, especially teachers of second languages. The authors synthesize and explain the main issues connected with the application of linguistics, psycholinguistics, and research methodology to classroom practice and inform teachers and educators about the kinds of psychologically based techniques that can be derived from a consideration of current research on language.
Applied Psycholinguistics examines principal linguistic theories, recent research into first-language development, second-language learning, psychometric methodology, and other important topics in a way that makes the technical literature accessible and relates it to pedagogical practice. An ‘integrated’ methodology developed and used with success by the authors, will prove especially valuable to teachers attempting to make informed choices about appropriate teaching strategies.
