Subject: Call for Chapters

 Dear Colleague,

We are writing to invite you to submit a proposal (1,000-2,000 words) for a
chapter in our upcoming book titled, “Vocabulary Instruction and Learning in
the American Classroom: A Cognitive Linguistic Approach” by August 17, 2017. 
A detailed overview of the theoretical background which informs this book is
attached.  Our book is due to be published with Peter Lange
(https//www.peterlang.com) in 2019.  This book will offer classroom-based
accounts of the successful instruction of academic language from a cognitive
linguistic perspective with an emphasis on teaching vocabulary in the K-12
English as a second language classroom.  The target audience will be teacher
educators in graduate TESOL programs which prepare in-service teachers.  

Authors will be notified by October 2017 about the status of their proposals
and sent chapter guidelines. Full chapters are expected to be submitted by
August 2018.  Detailed guidelines for manuscript and proposal will be sent
upon request and under separate cover. All submitted chapters will be reviewed
on a double-blind basis.
