Der im Gefolge der Fluchtbewegungen ab 2015 entstandene Forschungsfokus Geflüchtete in der GAL e.V. adressiert Forschungserfordernisse rund um Deutscherwerb und Integration unter den spezifischen Bedingungen von Flucht und Migration. Die Beiträge nehmen gelingende Erwerbsprozesse des Deutschen - als eine zentrale Voraussetzung für Integration und Partizipation - in den Blick: von Sprachförderung, Übergangsmanagement, Heterogenität, bildungssprachlichen Kompetenzen bis hin zu positiven Projekterfahrungen, und zwar in verschiedensten Bereichen wie der Schule, der Universität, am Arbeitsplatz oder im Ehrenamt.

An up-to-date introduction to language acquisition for advanced undergraduates and beginning graduate students in linguistics and cognitive scienceExamples from a wide variety of languages including English, Chinese, Dutch, German, Kannada, Portuguese and Spanish A clear theoretical stance, adopting Chomskyan generative grammar as a framework Summary boxes, exercises and discussion questions at the end of each chapter to improve understanding, generate discussion and encourage reflection Appendices of research techniques and resources to aid further studyHelen Goodluck adopts Chomskyan generative grammar as a framework to guide students through the growth of language in a typically developing child. She presents competing viewpoints and introduces the central controversies in the field in order to give students the opportunity to evaluate and reflect on these in relation to the examples and data presented. Summary boxes, exercises, discussion questions, an appendix of research techniques and suggestions for further reading are also included to develop deeper understanding, generate reflective discussion and aid further study. Taking into consideration recent developments and advances in the field, coverage includes the acquisition of phonology, morphology, syntax and semantics, the nature of innate knowledge and learning mechanisms and new developments in performance mechanisms. Illustrated with examples from a wide variety of languages, this book presents an accessible and essential guide to first language acquisition.

"This is the first edited collection focusing exclusively on how second language users interpret and engage with the processes of email writing. With chapters written by an international array of scholars, the present volume is dedicated to furthering the study of the growing field of L2 email pragmatics and addresses a range of interesting topics that have so far received comparatively scant attention. Utilising both elicited and naturally-occurring data, the research in this volume takes the reader from a consideration of learners' pragmatic development as reflected in email writing, and their perceptions of the email medium, to relational practices in various email functions and in a variety of academic contexts. As a whole, the contributions incorporate research with learners from a range of proficiency levels, language and cultural backgrounds, and employ varied research designs in order to examine different email speech acts. The book provides valuable new insights into the dynamic and complex interplay between cultural, interlanguage, pedagogical, and medium-specific factors shaping L2 email discourse, and it is undoubtedly an important reference and resource for researchers, graduate students and experienced language teachers"--

Teaching languages to adolescents can be a challenge. . . but one that is most rewarding! What works? What doesn't work? This book provides a reader friendly overview on teaching modern languages to adolescents (Years 7-13). Each chapter takes an aspect of language teaching and learning, and explains the underlying theory of instructed language acquisition and its application through examples from real language classrooms. The book explores teachers' practices and the reasoning behind their pedagogic choices through the voices of both the teachers themselves and their students. At the same time, it highlights the needs of the adolescent language learner and makes the case that adolescence is a prime time for language learning. Written in an accessible, engaging way, yet comprehensive in its scope, this will be essential reading for language teachers wishing to integrate cutting-edge research into their teaching. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core at 10.1017/9781108869812.

Dr. Arwood outlines a revolutionary four-tiered model of how learners acquire language, and suggests ways to impose visual language functions onto an auditory language like English in order to improve learning for both neurotypical learners and those with neurogenic disabilities.
