Abstract:
This volume offers a collection of essays addressing contemporary issues in
foreign and second language education. In particular, it addresses language
learner autonomy, both as a theoretical construct and in relation to areas
of application such as the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR),
the European Language Portfolio (ELP), teacher training, Content and
Language Integrated Learning (CLIL), and minority language provision. The
contributors - well-known researchers, policy makers, teachers and teacher
trainers - provide a multi-faceted insight into an innovative and
influential approach to language education.
David Little, to whom the volume is dedicated, was Associate Professor of
Applied Linguistics and Head of the School of Linguistic, Speech and
Communication Sciences at Trinity College Dublin. He is recognised
worldwide as a leading proponent of the theory of language learner
autonomy, and has been a driving force behind many influential language
education initiatives internationally.

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as
such can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered
501(c) Non Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These
donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax return
(U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact
your financial advisor.
Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match
any gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your
contacting your human resources department and sending us a form that the
EMU Foundation fills in and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple
administrative procedure that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without
costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if your company
operates such a program.
Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
