Abstract:

Written by a global team, this up-to-date introduction to applied linguistics
helps students learn what it's like to do applied linguistics, and not just
read about theoretical concepts. First, it provides frameworks for
understanding both the shared characteristics of work in applied linguistics
and the diversity of topics and analyses. Each chapter then highlights a topic
area, covering key concepts, a specific project undertaken by the authors, and
their personal reflections on entering the field. Hands-on analysis and other
application activities also encourage students to test different skills
related to each chapter. Finally, students are introduced to the tools they
need to continue in applied linguistics: how to read and write empirical
research, how to evaluate primary literature, and starting points for
expanding their interest in specific subject areas. The authors provide
examples from different geographical regions and languages to engage an
international audience. At the same time, multilingualism,
interdisciplinarity, and technology are integrated as themes within the text
to reflect how these areas are now interwoven throughout applied linguistics.
