Abstract:

This book explores second language pragmatic development with a specific focus
on two areas: classroom-based pragmatic instruction in the study abroad
context, and using technology for developing and assessing pragmatic
competence.

Teaching Pragmatics and Instructed Second Language Learning directly compares
the effects of technology platforms and traditional paper-based tasks within
the second language environment for developing pragmatic competence. These
analyses are based on empirical research of how undergraduate Chinese learners
of English receive explicit instruction in classrooms using different training
materials. The book makes an original and innovative contribution to
collecting oral speech act data in the form of computer-animated production
tasks (CAPT) designed to enhance learner engagement and performance. Using
this tool, it explores the beneficial role of technology in teaching and
learning, offering practitioners and researchers practical ways to maximise
second language pragmatic development in the classroom.
