Abstract:

This volume brings an international perspective to language skills – an area
of importance to both theorists and practitioners in all contexts of language
teaching and learning. The twenty-seven chapters included here are arranged
into six sections devoted to fundamental background issues, spoken
interaction, perception of speech sounds and production skills, reading
contexts and purposes, writing challenges for advanced learners, and
technology and language skills. Explored themes range from the
conceptualization of language as skill and the development of L2 skills in
communicative and intercultural approaches, through challenges in teaching
specific skills and their components, to the consideration of the
possibilities and limitations of the use of modern technology in assisting
students in skill acquisition. The volume’s contributors point to the
multiaspectuality of the process of developing language skills with reference
to different age groups, diverse educational and social contexts, as well as
instructional activities focusing on isolated and integrated skills. The book
also includes original empirical studies concerning learning, teaching, and
testing numerous aspects of language skills in L2 attainment. The book will be
of interest to researchers, classroom teachers, and specialists in language
education, philology and applied linguistics, as well as to graduate students
involved in the study of language skills acquisition and instruction.
