Abstract:

This book explores the relationship between online second language (L2)
communicative activities and formal language learning. It provides empirical
evidence of the scale of L2 English use online, investigating the forms most
commonly used, the activities likely to cause discomfort and the challenges
experienced by users, and takes a critical approach to the nature of language
online beyond the paradigms of ‘written’ versus ‘spoken’. The author explores
the possibilities for language teaching practices that engage with and
integrate learners’ L2 English online use, not only to support it but to use
it as input for classroom learning and to enhance and exploit its incidental
learning outcomes. This book will be of interest to postgraduate students and
researchers interested in computer-mediated communication, online discourse
and Activity Theory, while language teachers will find the practical ideas for
lesson content invaluable as they strive to create a successful language
learning community.
