Approaches And Methods In French Second Language Acquisition Research

~~139,13€~~ 125,22€ 10% OFF

 Against the backdrop of the critical importance of recognising the specificity of learning languages other than English (LOTEs) in Second Language Acquisition (SLA) research, this volume focuses on a state-of-the-art presentation of the research approaches and methods that characterise French as second language (L2) within contemporary SLA research. The presentation problematises those approaches and methods as a critique of what has been done, identifying a methodological roadmap of what needs to be done in order to advance the methodological agenda in L2 French and its contribution to wider SLA research. The discussion further aims to bridge the interface between methodological issues and the research investigation of a specific LOTE, French, such as in terms of its linguistic characterisation and developmental issues underpinning its acquisition. The analysis extends to approaches and methods across different theoretical paradigms in L2 French, in different areas of linguistic development, among learners in different learning contexts.

Innovative Qualitative Methodologies In Multilingual Literacy Development Research - Amplifying Voices From Immigrant, Transnational, And Refugee Communities

~~139,13€~~ 125,22€ 10% OFF

 Researchers who study multilingual literacy development face the reality of complex and ever evolving conceptualizations of multilingualism and literacy across dynamic contexts, languages, and modalities. To unlock the full potential of continuous developments in Applied Linguistics, innovative rethinking of methodological approaches is needed to keep pushing the boundaries of our understanding of multilingual literacy development and our ethical commitments to humanizing research. This book provides powerful and wide-ranging examples of qualitative research that foreground a rethinking of data, theory, and positionality in their exploration of multilingual literacy development. The volume showcases how qualitative research designs and tools can allow scholars not only to "study" the literacy development of multilingual learners from immigrant, transnational, and refugee backgrounds, but also to engage in ethical research approaches to learn from and amplify literacy practices and experiences that cross borders, languages, and modalities.

Less Frequently Used Research Methodologies In Applied Linguistics

~~128,53€~~ 115,68€ 10% OFF

 Research methodology plays a pivotal role in generating new knowledge in any academic discipline. Applied Linguistics (AL) researchers use a variety of research methodologies to address different research problems and research questions, given its interdisciplinary nature. Notwithstanding the plethora of research methodologies used by AL researchers, there are some methodologies that are used less frequently. The aim of this volume is to introduce and discuss these less frequently used methodologies. Each methodology is discussed in two chapters, a theoretical and a practical chapter. In the theoretical chapters, the theoretical foundations, methodological orientation, ethical issues, and critiques and responses are discussed. In the practical chapters, a showcase study is presented and discussed, including why the methodology was used, how it was implemented, the challenges the researchers faced, and the insights they gained. The volume contributes to the current methodological discussion in AL and provides early-career and seasoned researchers with the necessary discussion about these methodological orientations. Future AL researchers may use these methodologies to investigate research questions in their areas of interest. In addition, the volume can complement current methodological resources in postgraduate research methodology courses.

Research Methods In Vocabulary Studies

by Durrant Philip Durrant, Kremmel Benjamin Kremmel, Siyanova-Chanturia Anna Siyanova-Chanturia e Sonbul Suhad Sonbul

109,98€ + 10% CARD

 Understanding vocabulary and its role in language learning is one of the central tasks of applied linguistic research. It is also an area that has seen, and continues to see, huge progress in terms of the complexity and diversity of work being done. While this makes for a rich and exciting research scene, it can also make the task of developing vocabulary research skills a daunting one as specialist subfields develop ever more sophisticated concepts and methods. This book aims to give readers an understanding of the area that is both detailed and rounded by introducing them to understanding and doing vocabulary research from four key perspectives: corpus linguistics, psycholinguistics, language testing, and teaching and learning. Within each area, a state-of-the-art review describes fundamental concepts and commonly used methods, evaluates ongoing methodological debates, and points to areas for future development. It aims both to give readers a solid grounding in the specialized methods and debates associated with each area and to build connections across these specializations, considering points of contact and ways in which they can work together.
