Announcing the newest publications from the NFLRC (most of them free):


*1) Noticing and second language acquisition: Studies in honor of Richard
Schmidt*
by Bergsleithner, J. M., Frota, S. N., & Yoshioka, J. K. (Eds.)*
*

This volume celebrates the life and groundbreaking work of Richard Schmidt,
the developer of the influential Noticing Hypothesis in the field of second
language acquisition. The 19 chapters encompass a compelling collection of
cutting-­edge research studies exploring such constructs as noticing,
attention, and awareness from multiple perspectives, which expand, fine
tune, sometimes support, and sometimes challenge Schmidt’s seminal ideas
and take research on noticing in exciting new directions.



*2) Practical Assessment Tools for College Japanese*

by Kondo-Brown, K., Brown, J. D., & Tominaga, W. (Eds.)


Each of the 21 modules presents a practical assessment idea that can be
adopted or adapted for the reader’s own formative or summative assessment
of their Japanese language learners. For ease of use, each module is
organized in approximately the same way including background information,
aims, levels, assessment times, resources, procedures, caveats and options,
references, and other appended information.
