Abstract:
This volume brings together a selection of articles about research conducted
on language acquisition in the Baltic States, namely in Latvia and Lithuania,
a field which has witnessed massive growth in recent years.
The book begins with an introduction which specifies the problems investigated
by the contributions in order to acquaint the reader with current issues and
research in linguodidactics and applied linguistics. The volume will
particularly appeal to scholars of language acquisition, as well as anyone
interested in research and practical activities concerning language education
in the Baltic States.
The papers compiled here are grouped into five sections: language acquisition
in the context of bilingualism and multilingualism; pedagogical factors of
language acquisition; research on literacy; language acquisition at an early
age; and research in linguodidactics to assist language acquisition.
This volume will stimulate the reader to ask questions, think of solutions,
argue and propose counterarguments with regards to language acquisition in
this region. The driving force in this field is dialogue and argumentative
discussion, not utilitarian notes and advice, and, through detailing a range
of views on language acquisition problems and perspectives, the book achieves
that aim.

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Indiana University and
as such can receive donations through Indiana University Foundation. We
also collect donations via eLinguistics Foundation, a registered 501(c)
Non Profit organization with the federal tax number 45-4211155. Either
way, the donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your
state tax return (U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the
IRS Web-Site, or contact your financial advisor.
Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that
they will match any gift you make to a non-profit organization.
Normally this entails your contacting your human resources department
and sending us a form that the Indiana University Foundation fills in
and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple administrative
procedure that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without
costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if
your company operates such a program.
Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
