In this memorial volume for A. Ronald Walton, cutting-edge scholars
interrelate two normally separate domains: the formation of language
policy and the improvement of language teaching. Bernard Spolsky,
Elana Shohamy, Joshua Fishman, and Kees de Bot address theoretical
aspects of national language policy. John Trim relates the historical
development of the Council of Europe’s international language
policy.Richard Lambert, Ronald Walton, Richard Brecht, and Xueying
Wang deal with structural issues in language instruction in the United
States. Eleanor Jorden, Galal Walker, Myriam Met, and Gilbert Merkx
discuss the special problems of providing instruction in the
non-Western languages. And Michael Long, Ross Steele, Ralph Ginsberg
and Laura Miller are concerned with specific pedagogical issues:
task-based language teaching, the role of culture in language
instruction, and what is learned during study abroad. These articles
stand both as definitive statements on their individual topics and,
taken together, as a fresh amalgamation of policy and pedagogy.
