Theories in Second Language Acquisition: An Introduction de Bill VanPatten

Theories in Second Language Acquisition: An Introduction: Second Language Acquisition Research Series

Editat de Bill VanPatten, Gregory D. Keating, Stefanie Wulff

en Limba Engleză Paperback – 19 mar 2020

This third edition of the best-selling Theories in Second Language Acquisition surveys the major theories currently used in second language acquisition (SLA) research, serving as an ideal introductory text for undergraduate and graduate students in SLA and language teaching.
Designed to provide a consistent and coherent presentation for those seeking a basic understanding of the theories that underlie contemporary SLA research, each chapter focuses on a single theory. Chapters are written by leading scholars in the field and incorporate a basic foundational description of the theory, relevant data or research models used with this theory, common misunderstandings, and a sample study from the field to show the theory in practice.
New to this edition is a chapter addressing the relationship between theories and L2 teaching, as well as refreshed coverage of all theories throughout the book. A key work in the study of second language acquisition, this volume will be useful to students of linguistics, language and language teaching, and to researchers as a guide to theoretical work outside their respective domains.

Recenzii

Praise for the previous edition:
"VanPatten and Williams have created a thoroughly accessible, informative and authoritative introduction to mainstream theories of contemporary SLA. Written by the most distinguished scholars in the field who work on the theories surveyed, this impressive collection is a definite 'must read' for any beginning student of SLA."
Silvina Montrul, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, USA.
"VanPatten and Williams are to be commended yet again for compiling a volume whose pages are filled with the latest research and depth of accurate coverage of the major theories of SLA. Each chapter endeavors to address key SLA questions from the lens of a specific paradigm, while presenting in an accessible fashion the fundamentals of the given approach. Not only is each chapter updated, but many are also significantly improved in engaging the leitmotif questions provided in the foregrounding chapters, threading the book together in a logical and fruitful way. "
Jason Rothman, University of Reading, UK & University of Tromsø, Norway.
"This volume is required reading for every graduate student in the field of SLA. For current and future second language teachers, it provides a comprehensive and highly accessible view of past and present attempts at explaining the processes involved in how second languages are learned. VanPatten and Williams have chosen key theories and the big names that stand behind them, and the result is an absolutely outstanding volume that covers SLA with remarkable breadth and depth."
Cristina Sanz, Georgetown University, USA.
