Early Language Learning: Complexity and Mixed Methods
Edited by Janet Enever and Eva Lindgren

Reviewer comments:

This is an exciting edited volume for graduate students, researchers and decision-makers interested in early language teaching and learning. The chapters present research conducted in 13 countries in Africa, Europe, Asia and Latin America and discuss English and French as a foreign, second and additional language. The studies offer insights into innovative uses of mixed methods to examine literacy development, individual differences and a range of other aspects of early language learning.

Professor Marianne Nikolov, University of Pécs, Hungary

This illuminating volume focuses attention on an under-researched field, the complex nature of young children´s language learning. Reference to longitudinal studies which illustrate the dynamic nature of the learning process and its fluctuations is particularly welcome, as is the novel use of mixed methods research in many different settings worldwide.

Professor Anne-Marie de Mejía, Universidad de los Andes, Colombia

This book makes a timely and significant contribution to the field of early language learning research. Firstly, it presents a wide range of global studies illuminating critical areas such as factors influencing motivation and learning outcomes at different ages. Secondly, it provides an innovative focus on mixed methods research design enriching the scope and depth of insights into the complex and dynamic nature of young children’s language learning and paving the way for future studies in this rapidly expanding field.
