    Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Hardcover, xv + 272 pages, NOT ex-library. Book looks unread, clean and bright throughout, with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Boards show minor handling wear. Published without a dust jacket. -- This volume brings together papers on a wide spectrum of topics within the broad area of language acquisition, stressing the interconnections between applied and theoretical linguistics, as well as language research methodology. These contributions in honor of Professor Jan Majer have been grouped in two sections: language learning, and discourse and communication. The former discusses issues varying from aspects of first, second, and third language acquisition, individual learner differences (i.e. gender, attitudes, learning strategies), and second language research methodology to the analysis of features of learner spoken language, the role of feedback in foreign language instruction, and the position of culture in EFL textbooks. The second part of the volume offers a theoretical counterbalance to the applied nature of the first one. Here, the contributions touch upon spoken and written language analysis, language awareness, and aspects of the English language; also, selected issues of language philosophy are discussed. The wide range of topics covered in the publication, authored by specialists in their respective areas, reflects Professor Majer's academic interests and corresponds to the complex nature of the general field the volume aims to portray. -- Contents: Part I Language Learning - Role of Written Corrective Feedback in Promoting Language Development: An Overview / Miroslaw Pawlak; Using Model Essays to Create Good Writers / Donald Sargeant; Demystifying Academic Writing / Lukasz Salski; Core Concerns: Cultural Representation in English Language Teaching (ELT) Coursebooks / Nicolas Robert Hurst; Takes Two to Tango: Research into Accent, Comprehensibility, Intelligibility and the Implications for CLIL / Alice Henderson; Analysing Spoken Language for Complexity, Accuracy and Fluency: Some Methodological Considerations / Irena Czwenar; On Applying Simultaneous Introspection in Researching Language Acquisition / Danuta Gabrys-Barker; On the Role of Pre-service Language Teachers' Beliefs on Multilingual Education in Developing Teacher Training Programs / Weronika Szubko-Sitarek; Gender-Related Distribution of Direct Learning Strategies as a Determining Factor in Successful Second Language Acquisition / Anna Michonska-Stadnik; Role of Mindsets in Foreign Language Learning: A Person-in-context Perspective / Anna Mystkowska; Some Remarks on the Late Acquisitions: The Reformulation of Relative Clauses by Polish Children in Polish L1 / Urszula Paprocka-Piotrowska; -- Part II Discourse and Communication - Selected Observations on the Effect of Rhythm on Proficiency, Accuracy and Fluency in Non-native English Speech / Ewa Waniek-Klimczak; Evaluating Conference Abstracts in Applied Linguistics and L2 Learning and Teaching / Anna Nizegorodcew; Phonological Short-Term Memory and the Operation of Cross-Linguistic Factors in Elementary and Pre-Intermediate Adult L2 Learners' Collocational Usage / Agnieszka Skrzypek & David Singleton; Emotional Awareness and the Noticing Hypothesis / Barbara Lewandowska-Tomaszczyk; Philosophical and Communicative Turns in the Study of Language / Piotr Stalmaszczyk & Wieslaw Oleksy; Third Way of Cognitive Science and the Middle Way of Buddhism / Jan Zalewski; Antonymous Nature of Even and Only / Aleksander Szwedek.

    Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - The potential of community building through virtual learning environment has received increasing attention in recent years, yet little empirical research has been conducted in this field in Middle Eastern countries particularly based on a social constructivist approach as in this case.The overarching concern in this research was to see if convergence happens in on-line university discussion forums in a Middle Eastern cultural context, and if so,to explore how it happens and with what strategies it can be supported in such environment. The research addressed the role of collaborative interaction as the process of co-construction of knowledge and identities. The findings of the study show what strategies the participants used in community building.The findings suggest that participants moved their communicative competence from tangible topics towards shaping new beliefs and ideas; creating the V.S.D-Virtual Social Development- model. The research also highlighted many issues for further study, one of which is the various interpretations of the concept of community building in on-line contexts.

    Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - The book that Dr. Mohammed Guamguami has completed is impressive in both its scope and its aim. The teaching of English as a foreign language, or any foreign language for that matter, is an especially vexed endeavor. As Dr. Guamguami points out, the need for linking culture to foreign language teaching has been recognized since the 1990s, since language and culture are deeply intertwined, and therefore, teaching a foreign language in a cultural vacuum leaves students with an abstract system of signifiers without an adequate understanding of their signifieds. The difficulty, then, lies in understanding the dynamic of the relationship between language and culture and how to exploit it for teaching foreign language with improved effectiveness. Dr. Guamguami's book investigates this problem and, through extensive research and careful analysis, points to possible solutions. The key to solving this problem, Dr. Guamguami contends, is to recognize the discursive nature of language and culture and to view their interrelatedness in the dialogic sense.
