Abstract:

This book provides an overview and analysis of the role that classroom
interaction plays in instructed second language acquisition. The
authors synthesise current state-of-the-art research on how classroom
interaction benefits L2 learning through the lens of three theoretical
perspectives: cognitive-interactionist (with a focus on how
conversational interaction may promote L2 processing and learning),
sociocultural (which assumes that cognitive advances are located
within social interaction) and language socialisation (which examines
how learners position themselves and are positioned in social
interaction, and how they establish their membership in the target
language community). They go on to critically examine how findings
from this research can be applied to classroom practice in diverse L2
settings; they then provide pedagogical implications and suggested
teaching activities to support L2 teachers and teacher educators in
harnessing the benefits of classroom interaction for L2 learning.
