Helping Learners Develop Second Language
Proficiency
Volume II of Proceedings from the International Congresses on Language
Learning |
| Edited by Lonna Dickerson |
| Also
available on CD-ROM, this is the second of two volumes of papers
from the International Congress on Language Learning. This collection
consists of twenty papers from the second Congress (October, 1995)
and the third Congress (October, 1998). While the book represents
a range of viewpoints and subject matter, each contribution has
a single overarching goal—to help learners develop the proficiency
they need in order to communicate more effectively in their new
languages and cultures. Each of the papers addresses the concerns
of those who work with pre-field and on-field language and culture
learners—facilitators, coaches, supervisors, coordinators,
language teachers, tutors, helpers, administrators and members of
on-field language committees. This book offers these individuals
practical help in dealing with issues such as expanding the role
of the language learning facilitator, gleaning insights from research
to improve field-based learning, fostering appropriate learner attitudes,
helping learners make the most of their individual learning styles
and preferences, equipping learners with a repertoire of communicative
activities, and assessing the learners’ ability to use the
language in real-life situations. |
