Abstract:

Community-based Language Learning offers the first manual for world language
educators interested in community-based learning (CBL). CBL includes
pedagogical approaches that connect academic learning objectives with
experiential learning, ranging from reciprocal partnerships with the community
(e.g., community engagement, service-learning) to one-directional learning
situations (e.g., community service, site visits, etc.). Despite this method's
wide use, there is a lack of pedagogical resources in CBL for language
educators. This handbook prepares teachers for CBL by offering solid
theoretical frameworks and well-designed, engaging exercises that help
students build authentic relationships as they engage with world language
communities in the US. Case studies based on interviews with community members
and students provide real-world examples that foster thoughtful reflection.
Activities in each chapter explore modes of written and oral communication
that foster second language development. The authors have extensive experience
in this area and bring their knowledge to this project.
