Abstract:

This user-friendly book is designed for language teachers of all
levels and languages who seek to inform their classroom practices with
current research findings on second language acquisition. Ideal for
courses on second language learning and teaching, teacher reading
groups, and professional development workshops, each chapter begins
with a story of a real teaching scenario and a concise summary of what
cutting-edge language teaching research says (and what it does not
say) about the topic. Throughout the twenty-one chapters, the authors
connect language research to the classroom, challenge
misunderstandings around language pedagogy, and provide solutions.
Each chapter concludes with classroom activities, and instructional
strategies that can be used immediately in professional development
workshops or in the classroom. Additional resources are available
online to supplement the activities found in the book. Applicable
across all languages and levels, this book is suitable for teachers of
diverse backgrounds teaching in diverse contexts.
