About this title

Synopsis

The volume assesses and supplements Cognitive Linguistics (CL) proposals for instructed second language acquisition. CL research can help identify language elements that merit explicit teaching. The effectiveness of CL-inspired additions to the currently available armoury of teaching methods is put to the test in classroom experiments.
