Editat de Terry Lockeen Limba Engleză Paperback – 24 mar 2010
- provides an historical overview of the debates around grammar and English/literacy teaching in four settings: the US, England, Scotland and Australia
- offers an up-to-date account of what the research is telling (and not telling) us about the effectiveness of certain kinds of grammar-based pedagogies in English/literacy classrooms
- takes readers into English/literacy classrooms through a range of examples of language/grammar-based pedagogies which have proven to be successful
- addresses metalinguistic issues related to changes in textual practices in a digital and multimodal age, and explores the challenges for educators who are committed to finding a "usable grammar" to contribute to teaching and learning in relation to these practices.

Descriere
What explicit knowledge about language in teachers and/or students appears to enhance literacy development in some way? Distinguished by its global perspective, its currency, and its comprehensiveness, this book offers a range of theoretical approaches to the issues surrounding this question, and examples of how these approaches are being realized in actual classrooms.
