Abstract:

Bringing together an international team of researchers, this volume explores
practice in second language learning - activities which aim to develop skills
in or knowledge of a second language. The book begins with two theoretical
overviews of practice as applied to learning to speak in a second language and
in cognitive accounts of second language acquisition. This theory underpins
the volume, which is split into two main sections: receptive and productive
practice. The studies look at practice in English, German and Spanish as a
second language in various contexts including traditional classrooms, periods
of study abroad and online language learning. The differing research designs
used mean that the chapters contain clear implications for classroom pedagogy
and further directions for research, teaching and learning in different
contexts.
